Tokyo Barrister: Start the law firm bankruptcy

Chapter 522 The Irrefutable Evidence of Plagiarism

Takezawa frowned, but he had no choice but to follow the judge's instructions to provide evidence on the suspected plagiarism of the thesis.She didn't expect that today's lawsuit would be disrupted by the opposing male lawyer.

Takezawa knew very well what Kitahara's wishful thinking was.

Judge Kawada is a magistrate who focuses on practical results.

If the substantive issues are not major problems, he will definitely hold up the procedural issues and put them down gently.

Therefore, this Beiyuan wanted to take advantage of this situation to show that the suspected plagiarism of the paper involved in the case is not a certainty. As long as the judge's belief can be successfully shaken, and the administrative procedure of this case is attacked next, a turning point may be ushered in.

However, wishful thinking is not so easy to play!
Even when it comes to substantive issues, the university has absolutely nothing to lose!

Takezawa and Asakurahiko next to each other looked at each other, then got up, and gave evidence: "The following defendant presents the sixth set of evidence. The first piece of evidence is the plaintiff's paper "Protein and Nucleic Acid under Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy II The second piece of evidence, the full text of "Study on the Secondary Structure of Proteins and Nucleic Acids under Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy", is from the email attachment of the first piece of evidence. The third piece of evidence, Bioresearch journal The investigation letter. The fourth piece of evidence, "The image analysis report on the data in the fourth section of the paper". The fifth piece of evidence, "Analysis of the image comparison results of the paper."

Takezawa's voice became sonorous and powerful.

The pieces of evidence thrown out seem to be angrily denouncing Mikiko's academic misconduct.

Takezawa continued: "The above evidence proves that the plaintiff Yujing Mikiko submitted a paper to the biological journal Bioresearch in June of this year and 3, a paper titled "Research on the Secondary Structure of Proteins and Nucleic Acids under Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy". In October of this year and 6 years, after peer review, the journal officially sent a manuscript letter to Mikiko, agreeing to accept the paper. Although the paper has not yet been published, in November of this year and 4 years, Bioresearch journal received an anonymous report The letter claimed that the above-mentioned papers had academic misconduct, and that key experimental data had been falsified, forged, spliced, etc.

"Subsequently, Bioresearch announced internally that it would investigate the paper. However, since the journal did not have enough manpower and resources to investigate the academic misconduct of the paper involved, in November of the same year, Bioresearch sent an investigation letter to Kyoto University, hoping that the university would It is also possible to initiate an investigation into Mikiko."

"After receiving the above letter, Kyoto University established a corresponding expert group, and at the same time entrusted an external image company to analyze the papers involved. After the external image company used professional software analysis, "Protein and Nucleic Acid II under Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy" There are 12 experimental data diagrams in the fourth section of the article "Research on Level Structure". Among them, 12-1, 12-3, 12-4, 12-6, 12-7, 12-8, 12-11, etc., There are a total of 7 data maps, which are suspected of using PS software. The relevant data points are pigmented, and there are obvious signs of tampering such as blurring, enlargement, and alteration."

"Secondly, the two experimental data maps of 12-9, 12-12, etc., after comparison, are suspected to be part of the splicing of experimental data maps from related papers published by Western scholar Hector Rios."

In court, Takezawa showed one piece of evidence after another.

above or professional papers.

Or a comparison chart after zooming in on the image.

Document after document is showing Mikiko's academic misconduct.

Takezawa paused for a moment, then continued: "The above evidence can fully show that the plaintiff Mikiko participated in the scientific research work as a doctoral student without any bottom line or sense of responsibility. Cutting and splicing data for their own use. What scientific research seeks is nothing more than a real word. Like the plaintiff Mei Xizi, she actually fabricated data directly, and cut other people's data to piece together so-called "scientific research results". Lai is extremely harmful! The plaintiff has no reverence for scientific research. Such a black sheep, Kyoto University determined that his paper was suspected of serious academic misconduct and expelled him, there is absolutely a basis for it!!"

Takezawa loudly scolded Mikiko for compiling data.

Some citizens in the back row of the auditorium couldn't help scolding in a low voice when they heard this kind of scientific research that blatantly fabricated data.

"Sure enough, this little girl is not a good person!"

"Blatantly fabricating data, tsk tsk tsk!"

"Our taxpayers' money is wasted like this!"

"Could it be that this kind of student is being cultivated now?!"

"It seems that Kyoto University is also a victim!"

The wind direction in the court has changed again.All eyes were on the plaintiff's agent.In the face of such ironclad evidence, how can the plaintiff defend itself?
Beiyuan looked around the court, knowing that the most critical moment was coming.It is almost impossible to reverse the so-called plagiarism accusation for Mikiko.But as long as the judge is convinced and shaken by the fact that whether his behavior must constitute serious academic misconduct, then this lawsuit can be said to have the so-called hope of victory.

Today, it's all about success and failure.

The first decisive point in this lawsuit has arrived.

It was like an attacker who surrounded an enemy city in the dark.Now the cannon has been transported thousands of miles away, and the muzzle has been aimed at the enemy's thick city wall.If the artillery shells cannot bombard the opponent's city, then this will mean that the expedition so far will face a complete failure and the danger of annihilation of the entire army.

"Chief referee." Kitahara's voice sounded, "For the so-called evidence presented by the defendant's attorney that accuses Mikiko of plagiarism of academic misconduct, the plaintiff's attorney has now submitted four pieces of evidence to the court. The first evidence, the plaintiff Mikiko and Biology Xunde Co., Ltd.’s email records; the second evidence, the “Experiment Outsourcing Contract” signed by the plaintiff Mikiko and Biology Xunde Co., Ltd.; the third evidence, the “Takeuchi-Muraki Joint Research Group Experiment Schedule”; the fourth This evidence is the number of Raman spectrometers in stock in the A-89 laboratory of Kyoto University."

"The above evidence proves that in January of this year and 3 years, due to the large number of experiments arranged by the Takeuchi-Muraki joint research group, the relevant laboratory equipment was too tight to carry out all operations, especially the Raman spectrometer in the laboratory has been used by other experimental groups. In this case, in order to successfully complete the scientific research paper, the plaintiff, Mei Xizi, found Biology Xunde Co., Ltd. and entrusted it to use the company's Raman spectrometer to carry out experimental operations for her. For this reason, the two parties signed the "Experiment Outsourcing Contract ", it is agreed that Bio-Sunde Co., Ltd. will be responsible for the experimental data recording of the Raman spectrometer in the paper."

"However, Biology Xunde Co., Ltd. violated my client's wishes and used fabricated data to deceive my client. Among them, the plaintiff Mikiko is also a victim. Yes, the plaintiff Mikiko, as the author of the paper, should be responsible for the article. However, the so-called falsification of data in the paper involved in the case is not true. It is produced by the outsourced part of the experiment. For the part that is not outsourced, the authenticity and repeatability of the experiment have been tested by peers."

"It is true that Mikiko was negligent, but in the final analysis, this kind of mistake was caused by the experimental outsourcing company. My client, Mikiko, did not directly engage in data fabrication, splicing, etc. In the internal handling of the university, the above-mentioned serious academic misconduct is to be blamed For my client, it is undoubtedly one-sided and unreasonable!"
