When Brooklyn woke up, it was already sunset, and the fiery clouds covered most of the sky, magnificent and beautiful.

Brooklyn's gaze lingers on the view outside the window for a moment, then shifts to the view in front of the window.

Anne was sitting in front of the window, looking out of the window. As if feeling, she turned her head and met Brooklyn's eyes.

Anne stood up and walked condescendingly towards Brooklyn. Brooklyn sat up with her head back and the mattress...... When the two got up again, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.

The sunset was gone, and the fire clouds hid shyly. Anne Aldington came out of the bathroom, dressed in a new outfit and painted her makeup.

He sat on the edge of the bed and kissed Brooklyn, who was about to get up to shower, and said

"When the eucalyptus in my hand is over, I want to open a law firm." Seeing Brooklyn look over, Anne continued

"It's a non-profit organization."

"I'm going to set up a pro bono law firm to defend the poor, pro bono. At the same time, a large number of legal aid issues are addressed. "Legal aid at the federal level has always been a big problem – or around the world, legal aid is a big problem.

This kind of free and unpaid service usually becomes a big problem. Either due to lax supervision, poor implementation and other reasons, it has become a gray area, and a large number of people have poured in, keen to manipulate some things through this gray area.

Either the regulation is strict, there is no oil and water to fish, and no one cares. Legal aid is the second type. The federal judiciary and even the United Bar Association have made it semi-compulsorily required that all registered lawyers who are qualified to practice must receive and complete legal aid within a certain period of time.

But this kind of legal aid is really pro bono! Free! Not a penny. Lawyers are procrastinating and resolutely refusing to access legal aid until the deadline is approaching, and some barristers will even put it off again and again, and if they can't afford to do it, they will let others fulfill this obligation in their own name.

"We did a survey when we were in college." Anne said

"Most of the people who are campaigning for legal aid are graduates or unknown lawyers. Their abilities are mixed, and many are not even qualified to practice in the Bar Association. "Lawyers' qualifications are not prescribed by the government, and the government has never stipulated that only lawyers can defend themselves.

These are all regulations agreed upon by private organizations in the industry, and have nothing to do with government regulations. The court only advises the client to find a lawyer to defend himself, which is out of the consideration of the client's responsibility, but if the client insists on defending himself, the court will not stop it.

Nor is it issued by the government. Therefore, a lawyer who is not qualified to practice does not violate the law, but violates the rules of the lawyers association, that is, the rules of the profession.

The Bar Association can sue them for 'infringing on the collective reputation of lawyers' or 'defrauding clients', and the success rate is almost 100 percent.

Because of this kind of undermining of the lawyer's profession, the court will not sit idly by. The Bar Association is a useful industry organizer for the courts.

However, there are too many people who practice in violation of regulations, and most of these people are small actors, and the lawyers association will turn a blind eye and will not be held accountable.

Brooklyn understood Anne's thoughts and asked

"You want to replace the Bar Association?" Anne shook her head

"I don't dare think so. I just want to provide a little help for the construction of the rule of law, so that more people can receive legal aid. ”

"We can work with the bar associations, and we can also work with the courts and governments around the world." Anne said

"Don't you have a portion of the money every year as compensation for legal aid? You can give it to us and hire us to take full responsibility for the 'gratuitous' case of the court. "It's not just lawyers who have a mandatory mandate, but all departments and all roles in legal aid.

The public welfare activities they once engaged in in Brooklyn and the internship program that are about to end are all fulfilling their obligations.

e.. Y has even set up a special fund to help the poor, and if the parties' economic conditions are really poor, the judge can apply to use this part of the funds to offset a part of the litigation costs.

But the reason why legal aid is 'notorious' and ignored is that it is a loss-making business, not to mention that it is not profitable, it is still a bottomless pit.

Brooklyn silently calculated an account in his heart and shook his head

"Then you've got a headache." Anne immediately guessed that Brooklyn was thinking about the source of funds, and she kissed Brooklyn on the forehead and smiled

"We can collect donations."

"The big law firms must be happy to spend some money on this." Brooklyn thought about it and realized that it was true.

Legal aid is a mandatory requirement, and even a former justice like Anthony Kennedy must fulfill his legal aid obligations to become a lawyer.

In that case, it is better to pay a sum of money to buy peace of mind, so that the barristers can devote their energy to more profitable eucalyptus.

Brooklyn didn't say anything more, leaned in and kissed Anne. The atmosphere began to be ambiguous. Anne nudged Brooklyn and reminded

"They're all waiting for you in the conference room." Brooklyn smacked her lips regretfully, got up obediently and went into the bathroom.

Half an hour later, Brooklyn and Anne parted ways in the elevator. As Anne prepares for her resignation, Brooklyn heads to the conference room to continue the meeting.

Yesterday's meeting decided who would chair the meeting today, and today's meeting decided the future system and system of Harvard.

When Brooklyn walked into the conference room, he found that everyone had arrived, and he was one of them. Bob slept and sat behind him in good spirits, his notebook in hand.

Anthony also seems to have recovered a lot of energy, and the dark circles under his eyes have become a lot. Burke Forsman looked calm, as if nothing had happened.

Brooklyn's gaze swept over the crowd, pinpointing López. The old cowboy grinned behind his ears and was showing off his black walnut patch pistol to others.

Brooklyn nodded apologetically, then walked to his seat and tried the microphone to call the meeting to order.

Facing the crowd with some nervousness in their seriousness, Brooklyn said

"The first thing I want to announce is to try to keep meetings as low as possible in the future."

"Except for the regular meeting once a year, we don't have a meeting if we can. If you don't come back a few times like last night, you will probably die of exhaustion soon. Brooklyn said with a smile, so the atmosphere in the room was relaxed.

Brooklyn then said

"Fewer meetings does not mean to be arbitrary, but to reduce unnecessary troubles and toss everyone back and forth."

"In the future, the general event will be publicized for seven days, and anyone can express their opinions on the content of the announcement within seven days, either by emailing the organizer, or by me, by phone, or even by flying to New York to discuss it in person. Everyone has the right to be heard. Brooklyn immediately announced that the publicity period for important events is one month, and emergency events should also be publicized for at least one day.

Brooklyn then moved on to the second thing

"Some of you have investigated my background, some have heard from others, or heard the media report on it." Brooklyn started with his origins and was the first to gain the recognition of most people, and then he said

"I'm a person who doesn't like formality, and I don't want to waste time listening to a whole bunch of useless nonsense. Our meetings will focus on practicality in the future. If there is a problem, say the problem, no problem, go back to their own home. ”

"I hope you will speak enthusiastically." Brooklyn looked around

"For example, now, let's talk about it again, don't you have any opinions, no ideas at all?" Many people looked at each other, surprised by Brooklyn's words.

The meeting lasted until about 10 o'clock and ended in a relatively friendly atmosphere. During the meeting, Brooklyn carried out a limited split and reorganization of the Harvard Council.

He made good on his promise to let Burke Forsman stay and continue to do what he wanted to do — Burke Forsman would be the head of the 'discipline department' and would conduct spot checks on the performance of members of the Harvard Parliament.

Brooklyn demanded that the members' past performance be held accountable, but that no one should get Harvard in trouble starting today.

Specifically, he didn't say that these were Burke's jobs. Brooklyn gave Burke the right to 'picket,' but did not give him the right to dispose of it.

He demanded that all issues must be sent to him in the form of a report, and that the punishment be publicized after verification, and that the penalized person always retain the right to defend himself at any time until the end of the publicity.

In order to completely extinguish Burke's careful thinking, Brooklyn asked Burke to rotate his subordinates every year, that is, the people who work with Burke are randomly selected from the members every year, and after the work is completed this year, he will step down, and it will be the turn of someone else next year.

After dealing with Burke, it was Anthony's turn. Brooklyn was generous to Anthony. He was assigned to coordinate internal work, including conflict mediation, qualifications, and council building...... Nothing is touched, but nothing has a complete independent right to dispose of.

It's more like the head of a private office in Brooklyn. After the two people who opposed him were appeased, Brooklyn did not hesitate to treat the 'meritorious people'.

He directly put López Mitchelson in charge of the Harvard Congress's foreign relations. Lopez Mitchelson, an old cowboy, has become the 'foreign minister' of the Harvard Parliament.

It's a very powerful job. At the national level, many ambassadors to other countries have the right to exercise power on behalf of their leaders.

In the same way, López Mitchelson has that right. For example, if Brooklyn does not have special instructions from Brooklyn, Lopez Mitchelson can make his own requests if he is approached about the New York incident.

In addition, there are also how to regulate the strict entry and exit of council members, how to regulate the behavior and activities of members, and how to build a new organizational structure...... All sorts of messy things.

Obviously, it is impossible to discuss everything tonight, everyone just sets the direction, gives a framework, and leaves the rest to the professionals.

In the midst of eager discussions, Brooklyn gradually woke up from the joy of victory. The issue of strict entry and exit of members of the council was being discussed, and Brooklyn proposed that the information of members applying for membership in the council should be strictly examined in the future, and then the members eagerly discussed the issue.

I don't know who contacted Brooklyn's earlier mention of Burke's work, and there was a brief silence in the room.

It was as if a classmate had seen the homeroom teacher in the back window during the evening self-study, and the originally noisy classroom quickly fell silent.

Not only has it become difficult to join, but the behavior of members is also strictly restricted. This sense of restraint makes everyone's faces look unpleasant.

This brought Brooklyn to its senses from the joy of victory. He did become the Speaker of Harvard, but he didn't have full control of Harvard!

Harvard remains torn apart. Brooklyn was alert, and turned on the next topic as usual.

Integrate resources, as well as help for members. The previous discussion was about obligations and responsibilities, and now we are talking about 'welfare'.

Again, Brooklyn threw out only a few demands, and left the rest to everyone. Brooklyn's requirement is that support is reviewed and publicized, and that it is 'distributed on demand', not 'the highest bidder'.

The request aroused widespread interest. After a few minutes of discussion, Brooklyn brought up an issue that had previously been silently resisted.

"Our resources are limited and it is impossible to meet all those in need. I need to make sure that the resources that we provide are produced by us is someone who will be useful to Harvard, who can give back to Harvard, and who will continue to do so. And not a politician who is a traitor. We need partners, brothers, not treacherous and cunning politicians. ”

"I don't want to consume a lot of resources and produce people who have abandoned Harvard. That would be my remiss of duty. ”

"The strict entry and exit of members and daily spot checks are not to restrict everyone, but to protect Harvard and protect everyone's interests." Brooklyn explained calmly.

Seeing that most people were still hesitating, Brooklyn had to take another step back.

"The content and scale of spot checks can be discussed." He had to make! He is now coercing Anthony and Burke, relying on the momentum of the victor and everyone's support for him.

After absorbing John Manning's die-hard supporters, Brooklyn's roots have become deep, but there is still a gap compared to Burke and Anthony.

This cleared Brooklyn's mind completely, and the joy of victory completely faded. He felt like he had won, as if he hadn't.

He did become the speaker of Harvard, and was able to transform Harvard. But he didn't have complete control over Harvard, and he wanted to strangle Burke, who would always be in front of his eyes for the rest of the year.

He was eager to get Anthony to 'come home' and continue his global journey, but Anthony would have to deal with him a lot in the future.

Brooklyn suppressed this outlandish thought, still smiling and kind, and raised the topics one by one and started the discussion.

He never mentioned the slightest thing about the events in New York. This made both Anthony and Burke very strange.

Isn't the purpose of the Brooklyn race for Speaker for the sake of the New York affair? Only by unifying Harvard can we revitalize this dead end in New York.

But now that Brooklyn has become the speaker of the Harvard Congress, he never mentions the New York incident. Is he sleeping stupid?
