Chapter 147, famous
Much like Brooklyn thought, Michael's brain wasn't eaten by zombies. He simply asked what had happened, and after listening to the Brooklyn version, he moved on to something else.
"Judge Lylee Crewe of the Circuit wants to see you." Michael brought Brooklyn a cup of coffee and put it on the table, talking unhurriedly like an old friend.
"Lenley Crewe seems to value you, have you crossed paths with him?" Brooklyn thought for a moment, shook his head, and took a sip of his coffee.
He wasn't thinking about whether he had anything in touch with Lyleigh Crewe, but about Michael's purpose.
Since the back door of the l%o bar, the two have hardly communicated with each other. He didn't invite Michael to the housewarming party, but Michael didn't seem to care about it, and treated him as before.
Brooklyn watched Michael's expression closely. He found that Michael didn't seem to have a good impression of Lyley Crewe.
The first time Michael mentions Lyleigh Crewe, he refers to him as 'Judge Lyleigh Crewe', which is a very formal title.
It's too formal. Formal enough to show that he and Lenley Crewe are strangers. Lyleigh Cruke is the chief judge of the Second Circuit Court, which has jurisdiction over the states of Connecticut, New York, and Vermont.
As the chief judge of the District Court in the jurisdiction of the Second Circuit, Michael is a stranger to his immediate boss?
Even if there are political differences, it shouldn't be like this, right? He should at least call him 'Mr. Crewe' or 'Mr. Lyle' and keep the peace on the surface, right?
And the second time he mentions Lylie Crewe, he even calls him by his first name, and he doesn't even want to call him 'judge'.
This is the knee-jerk reaction of the person. When referring to a person, if they have a good relationship with that person, they will be more close, for example, Ray and David call Brooklyn 'Bro', and Brooklyn will occasionally call them 'bro' when they are called.
If you don't know a person well, you will call it 'surname + sir' or more closely 'name + sir', which is a sign of respect for someone with a higher status than you.
For example, Brooklyn calls Winston more "Mr. Winston", even though he and Winston are secretly eager to control each other.
If you are not familiar with a person at all, do not care, and have no intersection, you will be commensurate with your position. For example, when Bob mentions Michael, he will refer to him as 'Judge Michael' or simply 'Chief Justice'.
If you feel disgusted or even disgusted with this person, you will be called by your first name and surname. For example, when Bob refers to Alpha, he simply refers to him as 'Alpha Corey'.
This habit is a subtle habit in people's lives for a long time, and it is easy to judge the relationship between two people when they call someone when they call them.
Michael didn't even hide it, and in front of Brooklyn, he first called his immediate boss 'Judge Lyley Crewe' and then 'Lenley Crewe'.
That's not a good sign. This shows that Michael has a dislike for Lai Crewe. What should I do if my immediate boss feels an obvious dislike for my boss's boss, and my boss's boss still appreciates me?
Lyrie Crewe is respected not only because of his status as Chief Justice of the Second Court of the Circuit. Brooklyn had known Lenley Crewe since he was first 'given special care' and was a decent man.
Born into a working-class family, Lyleigh Crewe excelled academically, and was a Harvard Law School graduate like Brooklyn, except that Lyley Crewe was far better than Brooklyn.
He worked as a judicial assistant during his school years and continued his studies after graduation while maintaining his job as a judicial assistant.
Five years later, Lyric Crewe chose to become a public lawyer. The eucalyptus he came into contact with was rarely a homicide eucalyptus, but more of a class action lawsuit.
Big law firms also like class actions, but big law firms tend to be on the opposite side of the class, and Leley Crewe is on the class side.
Most of the federal class action lawsuits are mainly based on wage demand, insurance thunderstorms, and being deceived to defend their rights, and so on, and due to the limited vision of the prosecution and defense, such class action lawsuits often end in nothing.
Such unfinished cases in federal and local state courts even require the filing department to set aside a room for files.
Such cases are often only pulled out by an unfortunate judge when the statute of limitations is about to expire, and then a symbolic gesture is made, and then regretfully says 'I regret it' or 'I sympathize with what happened to you' to the collective.
Lenley Crewe has been running around with this kind of case for many years, and his winning rate is so low that it can almost be called a shame for Harvard.
But he still took over the matter as he should. In addition to this, he is also passionate about legal aid work, often providing legal advice to citizens on a pro bono basis.
This kind of work attitude hardly makes him any income, and you can imagine how hard he lived during that time.
It continued for nearly a decade before Lyley Crewe was elected as a judge in the District Court of New York State.
Compared with Brooklyn, who started as a federal judge, Lenley Crewe can be said to have really started from the grassroots level, step by step, little by little, and climbed to the position of chief judge of the circuit.
In addition to this, Lyrie Crewe has made significant contributions to the federal judiciary. He has unique insights on many judicial issues, is often invited to give lectures at major universities, and is also a guest of many local prosecutors' offices.
In New York State alone, at least one-fifth of prosecutors are his students. His books are highly sought after by the judicial community and belong to the bestseller list in the judicial community.
He is also highly regarded by the Supreme People's Court and is said to be a close friend of a Supreme Court judge. Regardless of position, purely considering influence, Lylee Crewe's influence in the federal judicial community is to surpass that of most circuit chief justices, and can be compared to the judges of the Supreme Court.
Such a well-respected person, Michael did not like. Brooklyn doesn't quite understand what Michael thinks.
If it weren't for the other party's 'focused attention' a few times, Brooklyn would have fallen in front of Lyleigh Crewe.
This is a truly impartial judge. That's why when he said a few words for Brooklyn on TV, the turmoil brewing in the minority community disappeared invisibly.
In a country like the Federation, it is rare to find a person of such prestige.
"What's your opinion?" Seeing that Brooklyn didn't speak, Michael asked
"If you don't want to see him, I can help you refuse."
"He's here to rob people." Michael laughed
"Our district court finally came up with a talent like you, and he was in a hurry to rob people." This sentence seems to explain his attitude towards Lyleigh Crewe.
But for Brooklyn, the reason is not sufficient.
"I want to meet him." Brooklyn spoke
"Lyrie Crewe." He made a look of amazement and said in a slightly exclamatory tone
"That's Lenri Crewe. When we went to school to study class actions, we used the examples he handled. Such a character, how could I not want to meet. Brooklyn noticed that as he admired Lyley Crewe, Michael's eyes were raised, the corners of his mouth were downturned, and his facial muscles were pumping.
That's a look of disdain. He controlled it well, and this disdain flashed by him. Brooklyn suddenly became interested in Michael.
He found that Michael was good at controlling emotions. The micro-expressions on the faces of normal people can last for about a second, and those who want to hide their expressions will only last for about a fifth of a second, while Michael is even shorter.
Almost instantly, it disappeared in an instant. It was so fast that Brooklyn suspected that the muscles in his face had been adjusted before he could react.
And his control of language. When he realizes that he has shown that he is not on good terms with Lyleigh Crewe, he immediately makes excuses.
This is not a reaction that the average person can have. Of course, this is not surprising as someone who can sit in the chief position of the federal district court, keep the information confidential, and be called to warn him at the first check.
"Hmm." Michael squeezed a syllable out of his nose
"Then let's meet, I guess he'll be here this week."
"Don't be nervous, it happens every year." Michael reassured
"It's just that every year they come quietly and leave quietly, and almost no one else knows about it except for the local chief judge."
"In addition to normal inspections, the Second Circuit Court conducts surprise inspections of this abnormal process every year. It is nothing more than a file to see if it is procedural fairness or not. ”
"Is it the only one who does this?" Brooklyn asked curiously. This sounds a lot like the 'double random one public' on the other side of the ocean, and he never expected that the Federation would do the same.
"Hmm." The corners of Michael's mouth drooped down again, and for just a moment, it was almost dazzling to suspect himself.
"It began when Judge Lyley Crewe became Chief Justice of the Second Court of the Circuit."
"Other circuits don't have that kind of rule. However, his rule did reduce the appeal rate in the Second Circuit by a lot. A large number of unethical judges have also been eliminated. ”
"Every year?" Brooklyn asked
"Judge Lenley Crewe traveled all over Connecticut, New York, and Vermont on his own?" There are 13 circuits in the federal federation and 94 district courts — the district courts here are federal district courts, not state district courts — and Brooklyn can't imagine how a single person can 'do one random and one public' against an entire circuit of district courts.
"Nope." Michael shook his head and explained
"Every year he elects three people to be in charge of three states in his jurisdiction. This year it was his turn to be in charge of New York State. "This is the real 'double random'.
Brooklyn was amazed as he heard Michael continue
"Last Friday he was on TV to talk to you, and I thought you knew each other." Michael's words are very skillful.
If the two are friends, it is a bit too much to talk about such an intimate topic, but not too far aboundary.
If the two were just subordinates, the topic would have become work, and he was asking Brooklyn if he knew his boss well.
Friends or not, the question is appropriate, and Brooklyn has no reason to shy away from it.
"He's been assigning me a piece since last year, you won't forget it, will you?" Brooklyn gave an ambiguous response.
"His son, Lyleigh Crewe Jr., seems to have been shot dead in New York." Michael changed the subject and said casually.
"Hmm." Brooklyn got up to refill his glass
"I heard that I was passing by a gang shootout, and I was hit by a bullet and was injured by mistake."
"Is it the Eucalyptus Gang investigating?"
"Yes." Brooklyn finished picking up his own, reaching out and asking Michael if he wanted to refill the cup
"David, the leader of the Eucalyptus group, you know, we are brothers who grew up together. He was very busy. Michael handed the cup to Brooklyn and sighed
"That would be unfortunate."
"He's only one kid like Lyleigh Crewe."
"Well, there's only one child." Brooklyn complied, filling the coffee cup and returning it to Michael.
The two held coffee cups and chatted while drinking, dry, a little embarrassed when they were forced to go on a blind date, and a little bit speechless.
After chatting for nearly an hour and drinking a belly of coffee, we talked from Lycree to Little Lycree, then to the gangsters in New York, and then to New York security, and then to federal security...... It seems that we talked a lot, but when I think about it, it seems that I didn't say anything.
Brooklyn looked at the time, rubbed his stomach and got up to say goodbye. Instead of going back to the office, he went straight to the toilet.
After releasing the pressure, he wandered towards the office. At this point in time, the judge who will schedule the time has returned from the courtroom and is finishing the process, and when the end of the day comes, it will be almost finished.
Judges who do not arrange time, or encounter complicated cases, accidents in the trial, etc., are still struggling in the courtroom at this time.
The entire inner courtyard corridor was silent, except for the sound of Brooklyn's footsteps. Near the door of the office, the elevator happened to stop on this floor, and Brooklyn turned his head to see the judge coming out.
"Let's." Brooklyn beckoned and said hello. Jean's face was gloomy, holding a bunch of documents and forms, his steps hurriedly, squeezed out a failing standard smile at Brooklyn, and hurried away.
Brooklyn stared at his back for a moment, then shook his head and walked into the office.
"How? What do you think? As soon as she entered the door, she was caught by Nelly outside, who pulled on Brooklyn's wide robe and asked urgently
"What did Judge Michael say?" Bob leaned over as well, with an interested expression on his face.
"Didn't say anything." Brooklyn briefly recounts the conversation, omitting the middle part about Lyry Crewe.
He wanted to tell them about the 'double random one public', but after thinking about it, he felt that since Lely Crewe wanted to keep a low profile, he didn't need to say anything about it.
Brooklyn suspects that if it weren't for Lyleigh Crewe's name, he would have been kept in the dark, ignorant of the immediate spot checks.
So what was Michael's purpose in telling himself about this?
