Chapter 497 Bribery Case
"It's really good to drink tea, but it's too expensive." Wan Kefa nodded.
Fang Yi said: That's your high requirements, a few hundred yuan to buy a can of tea, I can drink it for two months, the price of your cup of tea is just as high as my can of tea, can it cost nothing.
Then again, I introduced such a big customer to Yunwu Tea House, and Yun always has to give me a commission! While Fang Yi was thinking wildly, Wan Kefa spoke.
"Yesterday I took over a criminal case, it was a bribery case, and the first-instance lawyer fee was 500,000 yuan, are you interested?" Wan Kefa handed Fang Yi a cup of tea and asked.
"Great! What's going on in this case? Fang Yi's eyes lit up.
He said in his heart that he had to be interested in the 500,000 lawyer fees, and with the 500,000 lawyer fees at the bottom, there was hope for this year's income. This fat old man has two hits, Jiang is still old and spicy, and it is 500,000 lawyer fees as soon as he makes a move, when will he be so good!
Wan Kefa smiled, got up and took a case file from the desk, and handed it to Fang Yi: "You study it first, the party's name is Zhou Yingqi, the deputy general manager of a cultural media company, and he has been arrested for almost two years on suspicion of accepting bribes, and the case was transferred to the procuratorate at the end of last month." The parents of the parties mean to see if they can first issue a bail pending trial for the parties and release the person.
The old rule is that the lawyer's fee is three or seven cents, and you don't need to give me an introduction fee. I said that the team's resources will be tilted towards you, and they will never break their word. ”
"Well, thank you. I will first look at the case file, draft an application for bail pending trial in the past two days, and hand it in. Fang Yi took the case file and said in his heart: The fat old man is indeed interesting.
Less than five minutes after Fang Yi returned to the office, Zhou Ying knocked on the office door.
"Lawyer Fang, what's the matter?" Zhou Ying smiled playfully after entering the door.
Generally speaking, in law firms, in addition to the instructor, if you want to follow other lawyers to handle cases, trainee lawyers must be proactive, otherwise to say something ugly, "eating is not hot", for no other reason, there are too many trainee lawyers, and other lawyers are generally reluctant to take novices.
This time, there are a total of eight trainee lawyers hired by the WAGO Law team, which is not much, and they are arranged in the litigation department and the legal department, but there is still competition, Tian Xin has been following Lao Huang to handle the case, and Zhou Ying is using the advantage of familiarity to stare at Fang Yi, looking at Lawyer Song and others, and does not want to give other trainee lawyers a chance. So she didn't dare to slack off for a moment and was always vigilant.
"As you wish." Fang Yi picked up the file bag and shook it.
"Great. In order to make it easier for you to analyze the case, I have applied for a small whiteboard for you from the law firm. Wait! After saying that, Zhou Ying turned around and ran out, and more than ten minutes later, Zhou Ying walked in with a small whiteboard, which was more than one meter long and about seventy wide, and there was a black iron frame below, which looked very stable.
"You can get this thing too?" Fang Yi looked at Zhou Ying in surprise.
"Of course, we have all the office supplies in our office, but you don't usually need them." Zhou Ying said proudly.
She has been a paralegal for more than two years, and she is very familiar with the people in the administration department and the finance department, so she naturally knows these things very well.
"The whiteboard is good, but it may not be needed for the time being." Fang Yi said.
"Why?" Zhou Ying looked at him suspiciously.
"There is only information about the case in this case file, no case file materials, and I haven't read the case file yet. You first prepare a bail application. Then make an appointment with the procuratorate to read the case file.
By the way, I will contact the client and ask them to come to the office, and I need to confirm whether the entrustment procedure is their signature and fingerprint. Fang Yi said.
"The entrustment procedures should have been signed by them, and the certificates of kinship have been submitted." Zhou Ying wondered.
"A word of advice to you, as a criminal lawyer, be suspicious of everything. Don't be gullible and gullible. Fang Yi said seriously.
"Okay, I'll do it for you." After Zhou Ying took the file bag, she ran out like the wind.
On the morning of the second day, Mr. Zhou's father, a gray-haired man in his 70s, who retired as the vice president of a local university, came to the firm.
Fang Yi asked about the case, but Old Man Zhou knew very little and didn't say anything valuable. However, in the small talk, Fang Yi got a message that Zhou Yingqi had a bad relationship with his husband, she had sued for divorce, but her husband did not agree to the divorce, and finally the court rejected Zhou Yingqi's lawsuit.
This also explains why Zhou Yingqi was arrested, and her husband did not show up, but her father went through the entrustment procedures.
In the afternoon, Fang Yi and Zhou Ying went to the procuratorate to read the case file and submitted an application for release on bail pending trial to the procurator in charge of the case.
Before going, Zhou Ying called and asked, the procuratorate does not provide photocopying services, but you can take pictures, and if you want to copy the case file, you can go to the court to make a copy. (The actual situation varies from procuratorate to procuratorate, some procuratorates will provide services such as case file copying, engraving and electronic documents, while others will not provide these services)
Fang Yi asked Zhou Ying to bring a digital camera, and Zhou Ying wanted to shoot with a mobile phone, but Fang Yi vetoed. When she arrived at the procuratorate, Zhou Ying understood why Fang Yi didn't let her use her mobile phone to shoot, Zhou Yingqi's bribery case had too many materials, half a meter high. After returning from the case file, Zhou Ying began to print the case file materials.
"Lawyer Fang, Zhou Yingqi's case file materials are all here. I have sorted out the electronic version of the materials and sent them to your email. Zhou Ying put the last stack of materials on Fang Yi's desk and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Good, good job. We'll meet at the detention center tomorrow. In the past two days, our job is to sort out the facts of the case and read all the materials, which is relatively boring. If you have other things to do, you can do it. Fang Yi smiled.
"It's okay, I'm fine." Zhou Ying hurriedly said.
finally got a big case, Zhou Ying had already thought about following from beginning to end, and she could learn a lot after this case was completed, which was much better than following the lawyer to the court and detention center.
Early the next morning, Fang Yi and Zhou Ying went to the detention center to meet Zhou Yingqi.
Zhou Yingqi is in her thirties, and her figure is very good, although she is locked up in the detention center and looks a little haggard, she still can't stop her outstanding appearance and unique temperament.
When Fang Yi went to meet, Zhou Yingqi almost collapsed, her logic was chaotic, and she thought of what to say, and Fang Yi was confused.
After returning to the law firm, Fang Yi had to ask Zhou Ying to sort out what Zhou Yingqi said.
In the next few days, the whiteboard finally came in handy, Fang Yi and Zhou Ying sorted out the whole case in chronological order, Zhou Ying was very careful, and listed the situation of each time period separately.
After sorting out the facts of the case, Fang Yi began to search for relevant legal provisions, judicial interpretations and judicial cases to analyze the case.
