Chapter 981: Start from Zero and Return to Zero
"Well, you're right. When I was a child, I was beaten a lot.
Over the years, educational institutions have been shouting that children cannot lose at the starting line, but who knows, in fact, as soon as the child is born, it has been divided into three, six, nine and so on.
The so-called 'don't lose at the starting line' is just a slogan for brainwashing by off-campus training institutions.
There is nothing fair in this world, and the 'loss' in people's mouths is not necessarily a real loss, and the 'win' in the public's mouth may not be a real win. The world is unpredictable! Fang Yi exhaled smoke and said lightly.
"So what is a win or a loss?" Meng Guangda was stunned and asked.
"Does winning or losing really matter? Lao Meng, what do you say is life? Fang Yi asked with a wry smile.
"Life is life! Working, earning money, getting by, I didn't think about it carefully. Meng Guangda shook his head and looked at Fang Yi.
Fang Yi threw the cigarette butt into the tree pit and extinguished it with his toes: "I think life is a process of starting from zero and then returning to zero, just a process.
If you don't bring it in life, you don't bring it in death, you can live it as happy and comfortable as you want, that's right. After speaking, he patted Meng Guangda on the shoulder, walked to the car, and casually hummed Leslie Cheung's "The Road of Life":
The road of life is like a long dream, and the wind and frost on the road are dry; There are several directions in the red dust, looking for the love of the crazy dream center; The road follows the people, life is a dream and a hope; There are vague tears in my dreams, where to find the direction in my heart
"Start from zero and go back to zero?! Could this guy be a philosopher who has crossed over? Meng Guangda seemed to have caught something, but it seemed that there was nothing: "The song you sing is very good, what's your name?" ”
Meng Guangda saw that Fang Yi had already gotten into the car and walked over quickly.
After returning from the detention center, as soon as Fang Yi walked into the office, Yun Qiao walked in with light steps: "Master, the case of Ma Liangyou's embezzlement, the second-instance verdict has come out. ”
"Oh, the verdict was upheld?" Fang Yi asked.
Yes, the Intermediate People's Court held that the facts ascertained in the original judgment were clear, the law was correctly applied, and the trial procedures were lawful. The appeal was dismissed and the original judgment was upheld.
I have already informed Mr. Ma that he will come tomorrow to get the ruling. Yun Qiao said.
"Well, has there been a result in Liu Mengge's embezzlement case?" Fang Yi asked.
"The procuratorate is still going through the procedure. It shouldn't be a big problem. Yun Qiao replied.
……
Of the three lawyers recommended by Lawyer Zhao, Fang Yi finally left one of them, surnamed Cao Yongzheng, 27 years old, a little fat man, who has been a lawyer for more than three years, and turned out to be Lawyer Zhao's assistant, who has been following Lawyer Zhao to handle criminal cases. The other two lawyers went to the legal team.
On Friday, the team held an internal meeting, and Fang Yi introduced Cao Yongzheng, who came to work on the first day of the team, to everyone, Cao Yongzheng participated in the team's internal meeting for the first time, and sat on the side without saying a word, not knowing what the internal meeting was doing.
"Okay, everyone, be quiet, today let's discuss a case of intentional injury between me and Lao Meng. Lao Meng, you tell everyone about the case. Fang Yi cleared his throat and said while holding the teacup.
Fang Yi's words landed, and Yu Wendong had already come to the whiteboard, picked up the pen and prepared to record the key information of the case. Meng Guangda introduced the facts of Yan Lingmin's intentional injury case to everyone.
Cao Yongzheng is a little confused, why come up to discuss the case, shouldn't you send the relevant materials of the case to everyone and let everyone study it? It's so sudden, isn't it, what can be discussed?
Just as he was in the meng, Meng Guangda finished introducing the case: "I have communicated with Lawyer Fang before, and I think that the defendant Yan Lingmin in this case may also constitute the crime of abuse, for the following reasons:
First, the defendant Yan Lingmin and the victim Qiu Yu had a mother-daughter relationship, were members of the same family living together, and it was the defendant's legal obligation to raise Qiu Yu, and the defendant met the main requirements for establishing the crime of abuse.
Second, there is evidence to prove that during the period when the defendant and the victim lived together, they repeatedly beat and scolded the victim and physically punished him, causing Qiu Yu, who was at a young age, to have greater psychological fear and mental pressure in front of the defendant.
The crime of assault charged by the procuratorate lasted for more than 20 hours, during which the defendant had repeatedly assaulted, which met the objective manifestations of regular and continuous abuse required for the establishment of the crime of abuse.
This is my opinion, and I will share my opinion. ”
After speaking, Meng Guangda secretly gave Fang Yi a look. In fact, the two had already finished studying the case yesterday and reached an agreement, but they felt that it was necessary to dig a hole for everyone when discussing the case today, and test everyone.
"Let's talk about it, if you don't open your mouth, I'll order it." Fang Yi's eyes swept over everyone in the office.
"In this case, the procuratorate charged the crime of intentional injury, and I don't think the same illegal act should be evaluated repeatedly, so it can only constitute one crime, not the crime of abuse. After all, the victim is dead, and the crime of intentional injury is more appropriate according to the principle of proportionality of crimes. Zhou Ying frowned and took the lead in speaking.
"I agree with Sister Zhou. Only one crime can be convicted. The reason is the same as Sister Zhou. Yun Qiao echoed.
"I agree with both of them." Wu Dashao was supposed to go out with Mao Dong to meet with the client today, but there was a meeting on Friday today, and a new lawyer entered the team, so he felt the need to participate, so he adjusted the time to meet with the client.
There is no way that Mao Dong doesn't know about the situation of Sidley, and when he introduced the team to customers before, he was asked and stammered, which was too embarrassing, so Wu Dashao had to take him for a while.
Zhou Ying glanced at Wu Dashao: "Wu Daxian, you don't have to speak." ”
"Okay, I'll give you something to eat." Wu Dashao smiled, did not get angry, and took small steps and went straight to the Xiaoice box. After a while, everyone had an ice cream in their hands and participated in the meeting while eating.
Cao Yongzheng is holding ice cream in his hand, his eyes are straight, what is the situation, tea party!
Fang Yi looked at Cao Yongzheng, whose eyes were straight: "Lawyer Cao, it is the first time you have participated in our internal meeting, and we will hold an internal meeting every Friday, which is mainly to discuss cases and research and analyze the problems encountered in your daily work. Everyone has to speak, say whatever comes to mind, and don't have too many scruples.
Does your team have similar meetings? ”
"My original team had similar meetings before, but after a long time, everyone was busy handling cases, and they rarely did it again." Cao Yongzheng said honestly.
"Well, our kind of case study is sudden for anyone, and no one else knows about the case before the meeting, except for the host and assistant lawyers.
Therefore, everyone speaks their minds with an understanding of the case and speaks with a skeptical attitude, so you don't need to be too nervous. Lawyer Cao, tell me about your understanding of this case. Fang Yi smiled. (End of chapter)
