Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 80 Exploiting Vulnerabilities
Hobert's defense was wonderful. He effectively avoided the opponent's attack, and at the same time blocked all the opponent's retreat with a surprise blow.

However, Hobert also knew that the victory of this lawsuit was due to his opponent's "cooperation" with him. He had considered this issue yesterday. If Barton was to defend the defendant, he would never insist that the IOU had no legal effect. .

Doing so would either lead to an endless debate with the plaintiffs' lawyers, or allow the plaintiffs' lawyers, like Hobert, to take advantage of loopholes in the relevant regulations.

None of this should be what the defendant's lawyer wants to see.

Of course, this is just an assumption, Barton would not be interested in such a small case.

Soon the judge issued a judgment, limiting the defendant to pay off the loan within three weeks.

At the moment when the judge made his verdict, Hobert felt the pleasure of digesting the potion again!
He immediately concluded: I digested the potion this time because I completed the commission?No, fulfilling the commission can only make the spirit livelier.Is it because I take advantage of the rules of the law?wrong!

Hobert suddenly realized: It's a loophole, I took advantage of the loophole in the regulations!

Compared with the digestion of potions in the previous few times, Hobert found that the potions digested by using the loopholes to win the lawsuit this time are similar to the potions digested when using the rules to take actions that are beneficial to him.

Being good at using the rules and discovering the loopholes in the rules is the core of a "lawyer"!

Hobert smiled knowingly, following this rule to play, the speed of digesting the potion will be faster than his plan!

Maybe with two or three more cases like this, I can completely digest the potion!
After leaving the court, Sean shook hands with Hobert enthusiastically and said, "This is the most exciting debate I have ever seen!"

When he signed the power of attorney with Hobert yesterday, he was still a hundred worried. He felt that Hobert was too young and a legal assistant, and he wondered if he was the opponent of the opposing lawyer.

Seeing the deflated look of the defendant today, Xiao En felt that the lawyer's fee was really worth it.

When she came to the auditorium, Forsi smiled and said, "When I came to Sulla, I thought I would see two lawyers arguing word by word for some legal provisions that made people want to fall asleep after listening to them. .

"I didn't expect you to win so cleanly. Well, this gave me a lot of inspiration. I will come to listen to your defense more often in the future. Maybe I can also write a novel where the main character is a lawyer."

Hobert smiled and said, "Tomorrow I will defend the plaintiff here. If you want to come, you can come and listen in, but that defense should be very difficult."

He'll be here tomorrow to defend Bob.

Several people chatted for a while and then left. The defendant had promised to pay back the money within this week. After the other party paid back the money, Mr. Xiao En would pay Hobert's commission fee.

Hobert didn't go back to the law firm, but went to the legal department in a taxi to get his lawyer's qualification certificate.

Starting today, he is a formal lawyer, which makes him eligible to defend in formal courts.

Of course, the premise is that someone asks him to defend himself. Generally, the cases in formal courts are criminal cases or disputes between nobles.

As long as they can afford the money, they will hire a barrister to help them with the lawsuit.

The most common job of formal lawyers is to help barristers prepare defense materials, and they rarely have the opportunity to go to court.

If you can’t afford a lawyer’s fee, there is a high probability that you will choose not to hire a lawyer, because ordinary lawyers are no match for barristers at all, and they often lose the lawsuit after spending money.

Such thinking and the current situation limit the chances of ordinary lawyers like Hobert to go to court.

However, Hobert thinks that the lawyer qualification certificate may be used in Bob's case. Thinking of tomorrow's defense, he actually feels a little uneasy, wondering if his plan will be successful.

During dinner, Donna noticed something was wrong with Hobert: "Hobert, you seem to be a little absent-minded."

"I'm thinking about my defense ideas for tomorrow." Hobert smiled and said, "This will be a huge test for me."

"Hahaha, pressure is a good thing!" Christine said with a smile: "It shows that you are making progress."

He said with emotion: "This reminds me of my experience in the Southern Continent. At that time, I was a young man about your age..."

So the repertoire on the dinner table "The General's Story in the Southern Continent" began, but as soon as Christine's story started, Donna interrupted unceremoniously: "Did you blow up the enemy's bunker together? Father You have told this story!... So the two of you captured nine enemies, have you not? Father, you have also told this story..."

Looking at Christine, who was thinking hard and didn't know whether he was making up a new story or trying to recall his glorious deeds, Hobert smiled knowingly, and his mood immediately improved a lot.

The next day, Hobert arrived at the magistrates court early, and to his surprise, Bob showed up earlier.

He was still leaning on the cane made of a tree branch, and his clothes were tattered and had several obvious holes, but the clothes had obviously been washed and looked much cleaner than when we met last time.His hair was also trimmed, which made him look a lot more refreshed.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and entered the magistrate's court one after the other. One sat in the plaintiff's seat and the other sat in the plaintiff's lawyer's seat.

At this time, Hobert whispered to Bob: "I said before that this case is very difficult, this is not to put on airs, but we can easily become the enemy of many people, and even the judge will stand on the opposite side of us. "

Bob nodded: "Mr. Lawyer, I know how rare it is for you to sit next to me."

Hobert smiled: "I don't mean to brag, I just hope to gain your complete trust! After the court hearing, no matter what I do, you have to support me."

"I can trust you, Mr. Lawyer." Bob said, "David told me that you accepted their commission and helped them recover their losses."

Hobert nodded: "That's good."

After that, it was time to wait for the court session. Several people gradually appeared in the gallery, including David and Robin, several of Bob's co-workers, and Forsi sitting in the corner.

At exactly nine o'clock, the judge sat down and the court officially began.

As the plaintiff's lawyer, Hobert first expounded the fact that Bob was disabled in the defendant's factory and lost the ability to work.

"We will not renege on the bill." The defendant's lawyer smiled and said, "Mr. Arnold is a benevolent rich man. He has paid Mr. Bob's medical expenses in accordance with the relevant regulations, and will pay Mr. Bob 100 pounds in one lump sum."

Hobert said: "This is exactly what I want to say, 100 pounds can't support Mr. Bob's future life at all."

"so what?"

"We need at least 1000 pounds of compensation!"

As soon as this remark came out, there were several exclamations.

The defendant's lawyer shook his head: "Plaintiff's lawyer, this is a courtroom, not a circus, and you are not a clown telling lame jokes on stage."
