Tokyo Barrister: Start the law firm bankruptcy

Chapter 304

The incandescent lamps in the court seemed to make a faint "Zi La La" sound. Sitting in the auditorium, all kinds of outstanding alumni of Peking University, student representatives, university management, important officials of the city hall, education circles, and legal circles , whether it was those who supported the university or those who sympathized with Xiachuan, they couldn't help being slightly taken aback at this moment.

After making sure that they heard the famous professor's words correctly, everyone from the youngest student representative to the dignified city hall officials showed shock on their faces without exception.

The lawyer over there in the plaintiff's seat... is... actually a criminal? !

Professor Shimogawa actually hired a criminal to be his attorney? !

In an instant, even the three judges on the referee's bench couldn't help whispering to each other when they heard Utsunomiya's words, and they didn't know what they were whispering.

Feeling that the eyes of the entire court were focused on him, Bei Yuan smiled helplessly, still leaning on the back of the chair casually.

What Utsunomiya said just now happened to fall into the blank space stipulated by the law.

There is no doubt that lawyers who have been convicted by the court cannot continue to practice in court.

However, the law does not stipulate whether lawyers who are under criminal compulsory measures can practice normally.

However, the law also stipulates that the court has the power to order suspects who are released on bail not to engage in specific activities.

In other words, the judge on the stage can immediately order himself not to engage in court proceedings.

Such a question would be left entirely to the judge's discretion.

Judge Takanashi, you are about to make your first decision. What kind of decision will you make?
Will you do what your teacher wants you to do?

The corners of Bei Yuan's lips curled up slightly, right now happened to be an excellent opportunity for the chief referee on the test platform.He said lightly: "According to the provisions of the Criminal Procedure Law, ordering a suspect released on bail not to engage in specific activities must be carried out by the court, the procuratorate, and the investigation agency. Without receiving the above-mentioned state agency instructions, I can naturally do so." Appear in court."

A very short response.

Clearly out of proportion to the imminent risk of expulsion from court that he faces.

When Miyagawa heard that Kitahara only made such a brief response, he couldn't help but whispered: "North... Kitahara, don't you want to say more. Just in case, what if the chief referee really listened to that Utsunomiya's nonsense , do not agree with you to appear in court, what should I do then."

"No need." Bei Yuan said leisurely, "The chief referee on the stage has his own decision. I don't need to worry about this kind of thing."

The young male lawyer looked extremely composed.

Judge Takanashi on the stage thought for a while, and then whispered to the two judges in their fifties next to him.After all, lawyers sitting in court are suspects subject to criminal coercion.Such an extremely rare scene, I am afraid that a judge will not encounter it once in his entire trial career.

But right now, it just happened to happen.

Utsunomiya enjoyed the court scene in front of him, especially when he saw the surprised expression of the audience in the auditorium on Kitahara, he couldn't help laughing inwardly.

From the arrogance of the disciplinary hearing to the rude conversation in front of the wooden fence just now.

This guy named Beiyuan, you should understand that you are a clown! ! !
After whispering for a while, Judge Takanashi sat upright on the trial bench, looked at the plaintiff's seat, and said solemnly, "The attorney representing the plaintiff. Now the collegial panel is asking you questions, and you must not hide the relevant facts. Your answers to the court will be judged by the court." The clerk will record it truthfully. Those who do not answer truthfully will bear the legal responsibility for violating the Civil Procedure Law, and if the circumstances are serious, it may constitute a crime. Do you know clearly?"

"Clear." Kitahara looked at Judge Takanashi on the stage and replied with a smile.

"Which investigative agency took you out on bail?" asked the female chief referee.

"Kyoto Prefecture Police Headquarters."

"What are the conditions stated in the bail pending trial decision?"

"Do not leave the Kyoto Prefecture area. Report to the Kyoto Prefectural Police Headquarters every other week."

"This is all the conditions recorded in the decision book?"

"Yes, referee."

The audience in the auditorium who sympathized with Shimogawa heard about the deeds of the lawyer Beiyuan in the disciplinary hearing.They couldn't help sweating slightly, a little afraid of hearing the next sentence, the female referee coldly ordered the bailiff to drag the plaintiff's lawyer out of the court.

After the questioning, Judge Takanashi expressed a calm expression, and immediately said, "Please submit the copy of the decision on bail pending trial issued by the Kyoto Prefecture Police Headquarters to the collegial panel. Since the investigation agency did not specify in the "Decision on Release on Bail Pending Trial" Beiyuan's lawyer is not allowed to engage in agency activities, and now this court allows Beiyuan's lawyer to continue to appear in court."

In an instant, the dust settled.

The danger of being expelled from the court suddenly dissipated.

Hearing this decision, Utsunomiya snorted slightly, this Takanashi is really timid.This famous professor naturally understands the logic of his student doing this.

The reason for being unable to do so is that the law will deprive the lawyer of his right to speak, and the case will be sent back for retrial in the second instance.

But well, it doesn't matter.

Utsunomiya smiled, and he didn't really hope that the court would expel this Kitahara just like this.The purpose of doing this is more to humiliate Bei Yuan in front of everyone.

Next, Utsunomiya raised his head and said: "The chief referee. The defense opinion will be published at the stage of proof and cross-examination and court debate."

Very short sentence.

It was as short as Kitahara's response to the referee's words just now.

The famous professor chose not to issue a defense opinion.

Hide all your shells.

The academic lawyer, obviously knows how to create tension.

Fear comes from the unknown.

Since the plaintiff's lawyer on the opposite side lacks practical experience in copyright cases, it is more suitable to hide the defense point of view and make a surprise attack.

Make the most of this sense of unknown uncertainty.

"Then what are the defense opinions of the other two defendants?" Judge Takanashi looked at the other defendant's lawyer on the trial bench.

Ikegami replied with a relaxed expression: "In response to the request for disciplinary action against Fujimura by Kyoto University. This relationship is a personnel management relationship and does not fall within the scope of civil litigation. In response to the request for compensation for losses from Kyoto University Press, the press As soon as it received the notice from the court, it chose to remove the books from the shelves, there is no fault and it is not liable for compensation.”

This lawsuit is mainly a struggle between Fujimura and Shimogawa.

The possibility of Kyoto University and the publishing house being sentenced to legal responsibility is zero.

Therefore, Ikegami didn't care, and blurted out his answer.In front of his desk, there is not even a piece of document paper.

Takanashi nodded immediately, and announced: "The next step is to enter the court investigation stage, and the plaintiff is invited to present evidence."

Miyagawa gritted his teeth and gripped the pen tightly.The other side didn't reveal any substantive content at all.

Obviously, they were there for the raid.

This method of completely hiding one's own weapons makes the front look like pitch blackness, and one does not know what the terrible trap is.

The next battle will be a battle in the dark...
