"Zhou Ying, this case is urgent, you can contact the detention center to meet." Fang Yi arranged on the way back to the office.

"Lawyer Fang, is there any hope for this case? Otherwise, I'll take care of it. Zhou Ying felt that there was little hope for this case, anyway, it was to go down the procedure to meet the defendant, and he could handle it himself without Boss Fang coming forward.

"It's better for me to go with you, if you promise someone, you have to do it, so as not to have an opinion on the other party." Fang Yi thought for a moment and said.

"Okay, I'll tell you about it." Zhou Ying nodded.

The next morning, Fang Yi and Yun Qiao went to the detention center.

Kong Xusheng is a white-faced scholar with a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and if you don't know the situation, you think it's a university teacher.

The situation of the case he talked about was not bad from what his daughter-in-law Su Cuirong said before.

Fang Yi saw that Kong Xusheng's right hand was wrapped in gauze, so he stretched out his finger and asked, "How did you get your hand?" ”

"I was released on bail at the first trial, and the day before the trial, I went to the supermarket to buy something, and I happened to walk to the door of the bank, and I found a young man with short hair following a woman in her thirties who had just come out of the bank.

When I got closer, I happened to see him cut the woman's purse with a razor blade and steal the money. I went up and grabbed the little young hand, but I didn't expect the kid to be quite horizontal, the two of us made a move, and the woman found that the bag was cut with a big cut, and she was distressed, so she immediately understood what was going on and called the police.

When the police came, a large crowd surrounded us, and I had already pinned the young man who had stolen the money to the ground, and the police arrested him and let me and the woman go to the police station to take notes. My hand was cut by the young blade in the struggle. Kong Xusheng stretched out his left hand, pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and explained.

"How much money did the thief steal from the woman?" Fang Yi was stunned, but he didn't expect that the weak scholar in front of him still had a sense of justice.

"He didn't steal it, the woman took a total of 20,000 yuan, and he was about to steal the money at that time, if I hadn't stopped him, there would be no 20,000 yuan left. Half of the two stacks of money had been pulled out, and as soon as I grabbed him, the money fell to the ground.

Thanks to being a young man, if it was an old thief, I would definitely not be able to catch it, and it wouldn't just be a hand injury, which is estimated to be much worse than now. Kong Xusheng laughed at himself.

"Didn't anyone else go up to help you catch the thief?" Zhou Ying asked.

"At that time, there were many men, women and children around, but there was only one little girl who stepped forward to help me, and she helped me press the thief's foot. The woman who threw the thing was so frightened that she didn't do anything but call the police. Presumably for fear of retaliation.

Pathetic! When it's okay, they keep bragging about it, what is good to hear, but it's really caught up, one by one is more cowardly than egg buns, and there is no blood at all.

If we had been young, a group of people would have rushed up and beaten the thief half to death, and the police would have to carry the thief away when they came. Kong Xusheng said the meaning of his look: "Hey! The heroes don't mention the courage of the year, it's all over, this time and that time. ”

"What did the thief do? Sentenced? Fang Yi asked.

"No, the thief was only 14 years old, and the police at the police station said that he was not old enough to handle it as a criminal case." Kong Xusheng replied.

Fang Yi was stunned, only fourteen? This kind of raw melon and egg is the most dangerous, there is no seriousness in the start, and the mind is hot and reckless in doing things, Kong Xusheng is really good guts.

"Did you mention this during the trial?" Fang Yi asked.

"It happened the day before the trial, and I didn't mention it at the trial, and no one asked me at the time. The lawyer didn't say anything. Kong Xusheng shook his head, and then asked, "Is this ...... Did it work? ”

"It's hard to say whether it's useful or not, but if there's a glimmer of hope, we want to try. Can you tell us the name of the police station? Fang Yi said.

"Okay, it's the Red Star Police Station not far from our community." Kong Xusheng said.

Out of the detention center, Fang Yi looked at Zhou Ying: "You know what to do next, right?" ”

"I know, after the case file is transferred to the Intermediate People's Court, I will apply to the court for bail pending trial in the second instance, and then apply to the court to obtain the police dispatch records and case handling records of the Hongxing Police Station." Zhou Ying said.

"Well, let's first invite the defendant's lover Su Cuirong to talk about the commission. I think there's a door. Fang Yi nodded.

On the way back to the law firm, Zhou Ying called Su Cuirong, Fang Yi and Zhou Ying had just returned from the detention center, and Su Cuirong also walked into Sidley Law Firm.

"Lawyer Fang, do you mean there is hope? How many years can you subtract? Su Cuirong was a little excited, and he didn't have to spend money on the relationship and could reduce his lover's sentence, which was a good thing.

"We can try this matter, although there are relevant provisions in the judicial interpretation, there will always be some gaps in the implementation in practice, so I dare not guarantee that the judgment can be changed.

If you want to try it, we can start with the prosecutor's office and talk to the prosecutor in charge of handling the case. Fang Yi didn't dare to say too much.

"Well, commission, I will definitely commission. How much do you think I should pay for my lawyer's fees? Su Cuirong asked.

"This case is not too complicated, there is only one point that can be defended, relatively speaking, it is relatively simple, let Lawyer Zhou defend it, the fee will be 50,000 yuan, if I am a defender, the minimum will be 100,000 yuan." Fang Yi said.

"If Lawyer Zhou defends, will you give guidance to my lover's case?" Su Cuirong thought that since Lawyer Fang said so, it meant that even if the case was defended, the sentence that might be changed would not be too short, so she was not willing to spend too much money on this matter.

"Yes, you can rest assured that if my team takes over a case, if the lead lawyer has any questions, he will communicate with me. In the case of your husband, I will follow you to the procuratorate to communicate the case. Fang Yi smiled.

"Thank you, thank you so much." Su Cuirong's hanging heart finally let go of something.

After completing the entrustment procedures, paying the lawyer's fees, and sending Su Cuirong away, Fang Yi and Zhou Ying began to prepare, first submitting an appeal to the court, and after the case was transferred to the Intermediate People's Court, Zhou Ying submitted an application for investigation and evidence collection and an application for bail pending trial.

On this day, Zhou Ying walked into Fang Yi's office in the dust.

"Lawyer Fang, I just went to the court to review the evidence we applied to collect. It's the same as Kong Xusheng said. Zhou Ying's eyes lit up.

"Okay, has the procuratorate made an appointment?" Fang Yi asked.

"It's an appointment, tomorrow at two o'clock in the afternoon, let's go to the procuratorate to communicate the case." Zhou Ying nodded.

"Well, when I have time, I will revise the lawyer's opinion you drafted, and you will send me the evidence collected by the court. Come over before you get off work, and we'll talk about it. Fang Yi arranged.
