Quick Wear: Everyone knows I am a good person

Chapter 1037: Lawyer Defending Evildoers 19

"Criminal case?"

Shu Jiao was actually quite interested, "Let me take a look."

What kind of criminal case would make lawyers in this province afraid to take it?

After a careful look, Shu Jiao discovered the key point——

This is a murder case.

In March, Zhou, a homeowner in Anyang Community, Province D, died at home.

Before his death, Zhou often made noises at home, affecting the rest of his downstairs neighbor Sun Xiangyang. The two had a fierce quarrel and even a fight that day.

After investigation, the police identified Sun Xiangyang as the suspect and accused him of murdering someone in the heat of passion due to a personal conflict.

At present, the first trial has ended.

The person involved, Sun Xiangyang, was sentenced to life imprisonment for intentional homicide.

Judging from his confession, Sun Xiangyang has confessed to the murder.

But after the trial results came out, Sun Xiangyang changed his confession, denied that he had killed anyone, and applied for an appeal.

People who often go to court know that in this situation, the winning rate of the second instance is extremely low.

In addition, the court and the police have solid evidence.

Lawyers from this province still want to stay in this province, so no one in this province dares to take this case, no matter how high the price offered by Sun Xiangyang's family is.

Isn’t this just right?

Shu Jiao narrowed her eyes slightly, "I think this case can be taken."

Not guilty defense...

This is really the original owner's specialty.

"Yeah? I knew this would suit you."

003 said with a smile.

"San'er, you really are my good helper."

"That is!"

After chatting for a while, Shu Jiao fell asleep.

The next morning, she contacted Sun Xiangyang's family.

It is obvious that Sun Xiangyang's family does not really trust Shu Jiao, a young and fledgling lawyer.

But there was nothing they could do.

Lawyers from this province refused to take the case, and lawyers from other provinces also refused to take it because they felt the case was too risky.

We can't rely on family members who know nothing about the legal field to fight against the court and judge who have evidence, right?

Isn't that just giving away your life?

"Can you really answer it?"

The family member asked cautiously, "Lawyer, our Sun Xiangyang really didn't kill anyone that night! He would never do such a thing..."

"can."

Shu Jiao responded, then added, "But you should know that your case is very risky and complicated, so the cost is relatively high. Is that acceptable?"

"Yes! Yes, yes. As long as you can rescue my husband, I'll pay any amount!"

The family members were obviously very excited.

It was like finding a ray of hope in the darkness, and he couldn't wait to see Shu Jiao.

Fine.

The price is fine as long as it's ok.

Mainly, Sun Xiangyang’s case is a criminal case, and risk agency is generally not allowed.

Otherwise the price can be negotiated.

Shu Jiao reviewed the cases on her hands again. "I'm going to Province D on the 7th. Before I go, don't go to the court to make a scene, and don't post this matter online."

Public opinion is a double-edged sword and should be used with caution.

Especially in the second instance, the case of overturning the verdict for the parties involved.

Once posted online, it will not only cause public pressure, but will also affect judicial fairness and judicial credibility, and the difficulty of defense will definitely increase.

"Hey, okay, okay."

The person involved responded in a low voice.

Shu Jiao reminded her of some precautions, then drove straight to the court to conclude the Li Yue case.

"Prosecutor, my client simply registered as a visitor as requested by her boss. She never interacted with any clients, nor did she come into contact with any funds. Her work had nothing to do with fraud."

"Moreover, her salary has been fixed at 3000 for two years, without any bonuses."

"This shows that she has not been involved in any fraudulent activities and has no criminal motive."

"The client had a low level of education and started working right after graduating from high school. She had little social experience and was unable to discern that the company was a fraud ring..."

In general, there are two points:

First, Li Yue did not participate in the fraudulent activities and cannot be charged with aiding and abetting the crime;

Second, Li Yue was also deceived.

These two points are enough.

As long as it can be proved that Li Yuewu has not committed any crime, she will be released.

What's more, Shu Jiao has a lot of evidence in her hands.

indeed.

Li Yue did not participate in the fraudulent activities.

The prosecutor also recognized the materials submitted by Shu Jiao and decided not to prosecute.

It means: the person can be released without having a criminal record.

But there is no doubt that Li Yue did work at the company. Although his role was extremely minor, he can still be considered an accomplice.

Therefore, the state cannot provide compensation.

The prosecutor even wanted Li Yue to return some of the stolen money.

Can this be refunded?

If this is withdrawn, doesn't it mean that it is in some way acknowledging the fact of minor crimes?

Shu Jiao doesn't accept this.

"My client's salary is only three thousand!"

"Three thousand!"

"This is in line with the average salary of receptionists in most companies and is her legal income."

Shu Jiao defended.

Prosecutor: "But her company was involved in financial fraud, and the funds used by the company were all illegal funds obtained through fraud..."

"It can't be calculated that way."

Shu Jiao shook her head. "My client didn't participate in the spoils, didn't receive any performance commission, and his salary came from the company's normal operating account. How can it be considered stolen money?"

"Li Yue's involvement in the case was minor, so he will be refunded three months' salary, which is only 9,000 yuan."

"That's not OK."

Shu Jiao firmly refused, "Never mind nine thousand, even three thousand is not acceptable. My client's salary is all legally earned..."

Since people paid her to be a lawyer and hired her, she must strive for the best outcome for the client.

This is professional ethics.

Shu Jiao sat there and argued with the prosecutor for eighteen minutes about the "nine thousand yuan" issue.

In the end, the prosecutor sighed helplessly and nodded to let it go.

He has so much else on his mind.

At least eight lawyers for the parties involved have made appointments to meet with him to discuss this matter, and there is a large pile of materials that he has not yet reviewed.

He really didn't have the energy to argue with Shu Jiao anymore.

Shu Jiao smiled with satisfaction, but the matter was not over yet.

She also had to ask for the "Decision Not to Prosecute"; apply for bail pending trial and get her bail back; and apply to have her criminal record sealed...

There are still many things to do.

"If you have any questions later, please contact me."

When Shu Jiao handed some original documents back to Li Yue, she reminded her, "Keep these documents safe to prevent future labor disputes."

"Ok!"

Li Yue nodded excitedly.

She really thought she was going to get in. Her heart had been heavy these days, but now she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

After finishing this matter, Shu Jiao went to meet Ms. Hu.

Ms. Hu still uses the same old tricks.

She cried in the law firm's office, complaining about how despicable, heartless, and hateful her husband was...

"Are you sure you want to leave?"

Shu Jiao asked calmly.

"Divorce! If I don't divorce this time, I won't be named Hu!"

Ms. Hu said firmly.

Glancing at her, Shu Jiao raised her eyebrows slightly and thought to herself: You said the same thing last time.

"What if he begs you on his knees again and gives you flowers and clothes?"

Shu Jiao asked.

"Humph!"

Ms. Hu gritted her teeth and said, "He only knows how to use these fancy little tricks to deceive me. I won't be fooled again!"
