Lawyer

Chapter 254

It takes a long-distance bus from the city to the county. Fang Yi didn't want to waste more time on the road (mainly because his wallet was bulging now), so after lunch, he called an online car-hailing car on his mobile phone.Soon the car arrived downstairs, the driver called him, and Fang Yi hurried downstairs.

Fang Yi came to a white Jetta car, and he was stunned the moment he opened the door. He didn't expect the driver of the black car to be his old acquaintance Wang Deyou.

"Why are you?" Fang Yi asked in surprise.

"Come up quickly, parking is not allowed here." Wang Deyou looked around the camera nervously and said.

The Jetta was on the road, and after driving out of the urban area, Fang Yi expressed his doubts.

"Hey! I don't even know how to say this. It's embarrassing! Maybe I'm the only lawyer in the city." Wang Deyou looked at the front with a face of shame and said.

"You...don't be a lawyer anymore?" Fang Yi asked hesitantly.

Originally, he wanted to ask Wang Deyou if he had made some mistake and was fired, but he felt that Wang Deyou's character and style of doing things should not be.

"I'm still working as a lawyer! It's just that the firm doesn't have so much business and can't support too many salaried lawyers. Originally, the firm saw that I have strong professional ability and reliable people. They wanted me to continue to be a salaried lawyer and lay off another one. female lawyer.

But, I feel that since there is not much business in the firm, we can't waste it. It is not our pursuit to earn a dead salary all day long, so I took the initiative to ask to become a commission lawyer.

During this period of working as a commission lawyer, I have opened up some business, in fact... I am tired if I have too much business. I have not been idle for the past few days, and I am very busy.There is no court or appointment today, so I just come out for a walk when I have time, run a sports car by the way, earn some pocket money, relax, and change my mind. "Wang Deyou said with a chuckle.

Wang Deyou is a person who wants face. He doesn't want to say in front of his old acquaintances that he was persuaded to leave by the law firm.

"Oh, that's right. It doesn't matter in the Ticheng Law Firm. You have free time. If you have time, you can go out and run around. It's good to earn some pocket money." Fang Yiyan said insincerely.

Lawyers have a lot of business. Shouldn't they go on vacation or go sightseeing when they are tired?Wang Deyou was probably the only one who came out to do the work.

You still earn pocket money, but if you have a lot of business in hand, will you be short of pocket money?Lies can't even be made up. Although Fang Yi didn't believe what he said, he didn't ask too much. He didn't tell the truth if he saw through it.

"By the way, how are you doing recently?" Wang Deyou asked, not wanting to continue the topic just now.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, I have already transferred to the city to practice in Jinshi Law Firm." Fang Yi said.

"Jinshi Law Firm! Not bad! It's a big firm. How's the business going?" Wang Deyou said in surprise.The three sentences are not far from the line, and after a turn, they talked about business again.

"Business is okay, I'm working as a salaried lawyer in the team. During this time, our team is recruiting salaried lawyers. Originally, I wanted to recommend you... If you are too tired and unhappy, you can think about it! Anyway, first Congratulations on taking the first step!" Fang Yi smiled.

Fang Yi said this to give Wang Deyou a chance. If Wang Deyou's business is not good, he will probably find him soon. Anyway, the opportunity has been thrown to him, and it's up to him whether he can seize it.

"Very good, you've finally come to the city, let's keep in touch in the future. By the way, are you free tonight? I'll cleanse you up. Congratulations on getting out of the county." Wang Deyou said.He regretted that what he said just now was too full.

"Okay, I'll go to the county court to get the verdict. I guess I'll be off work when I get back, so I won't go back to the office. Let's find a place to have a drink later." Fang Yi said with a smile.

It was almost three o'clock in the afternoon when I arrived at the county court. After calling the clerk, I waited for nearly half an hour before seeing the clerk appear in the lobby on the first floor with Liu Qiaoling's criminal verdict.

After signing the criminal judgment, Fang Yi couldn't wait to turn to the last page, and frowned after seeing the content of the judgment.

Back in the Jetta, Wang Deyou started the car, and Fang Yi dialed out with his mobile phone.

"Lawyer Fang, has the verdict come out?" Liu Qiaoling's voice came from the phone.

"Yes, I just came out of the court and have already received the judgment. The court found that you did not constitute the crime of theft, but constituted the crime of illegal disposal of seized property, and the circumstances were serious. In the end, you were sentenced to two years in prison for the crime of illegal disposal of seized property. Years, probation for two years and six months." Fang Yi said.

"Ah?!" Liu Qiaoling's surprised voice came, and Fang Yi had already guessed her expression, followed by a bang from the phone. It was unknown whether it was a person who fell or something else.

"Hi, Ms. Liu! Ms. Liu..." Fang Yi hurriedly said.

"I'm fine, it's the thermos that fell down." There was a panic from the phone, and after a while, Liu Qiaoling asked, "Lawyer Fang, will I be imprisoned by them?"

"No, the court sentenced you to two years in prison with a two-year and six-month probation. You do not need to be sent to prison for the probation. You will be executed outside the prison." Fang Yi said.

"Oh, that's good, I don't want to go to that place again." Hearing what Fang Yi said, Liu Qiaoling felt much better.

"However, it is said that the procuratorate refuses to accept the judgment and wants to protest. So your case may go to the second instance." Fang Yi said.

"Ah! I have been sentenced for two years, and the procuratorate still refuses to accept it?...Lawyer Fang, I heard that the lawyer appealed not to increase the sentence, but the procuratorate refused to accept it. The court should not change the sentence to a heavier sentence, right?" Liu Qiaoling said.

"Ms. Liu, what you said about 'appeal without additional punishment' is aimed at the defendant, and the procuratorate's protest is not subject to the restriction of 'appeal without additional punishment'." Fang Yi explained.

"Ah! Is there a good chance of winning the second instance of my case? Should I appeal?" Liu Qiaoling asked in a panicked tone.

"I don't think there is much hope of appealing, but if you want to appeal, I can help you file an appeal." Fang Yi said.

"Oh, what about the lawyer's fees for the second trial?" Liu Qiaoling asked.

Fang Yi thought about the 4 yuan lawyer's fee charged in the first trial, and the second trial should not exceed the fee of the first trial, so he quoted a price: "If you don't file an appeal, but just entrust me to respond to the lawsuit, the lawyer's fee is 1 yuan. If you want to file an appeal , need to add another [-] yuan.”

"Otherwise... I won't file an appeal. Anyway, it's a suspended sentence, so it's not a big problem not to stay in prison anymore." Liu Qiaoling thought for a moment and said.

"Okay, how about this, after you receive the notice from the court, call me, and we will sign the entrustment formalities and pay the lawyer's fee." Fang Yi said.

Hanging up the phone, Fang Yi heaved a sigh of relief.

"Why, the verdict is not ideal?" Wang Deyou asked while driving.
