Chapter 222 Two gold medal lawyers in prison comment on the rape case!Must lose?
Chapter 222: A two-time gold medal lawyer in prison comments on the rape case!Must lose?
"Long time no see, junior brother!" Attorney Lin, the gold medal lawyer, waved his hand.
He held a big rice bowl in his hand.
Inside is white rice with cabbage leaves.
During these days of working on the sewing machine, I was forced to adjust my schedule back.
Then I have to step on the sewing machine every day, which makes physical labor follow.
As for troublesome and laborious matters, there is no need to think about all kinds of intrigues and business wars!
Under such circumstances, the complexion of lawyer Lin, the gold medal lawyer, inexplicably became... good! ?
Lawyer Li, the gold medal lawyer who was also eating with a rice bowl, looked quite ugly.
It can be seen that he has only been here a few days and is not yet used to the life of using a sewing machine.
Holding a spoon in his hand, he pulled the white water in the rice bowl to cook cabbage and rice.
He raised his head in embarrassment.
If we talk about someone who comes in and uses a sewing machine, who is the person your lawyer least wants to see?Not his wife, not his son or other relatives, but his senior brother.
His senior brother is Lawyer Lin, who is also a gold medal lawyer.
"Senior brother, it's been a long time! I really didn't expect that I was really attracted by you. We met inside soon, and we were still in the same prison!"
"If you are here specifically to laugh at me, then there is no need!" Lawyer Li was like a hedgehog.
In this minute, all the thorns on my body spread out.
If anyone tries to come forward, they will be attacked.
As a senior brother, Lawyer Lin shook his head and smiled: "Junior brother, senior brother, I looked like you when I first came in, but the winner is the king and the loser is the enemy. If you lose, you must admit defeat frankly, otherwise , the last thing we could hold on to is gone, be more decent and magnanimous!"
Attorney Li, the gold medal lawyer:...
I've already come in and stepped on the sewing machine. You want me to be more open-minded?
Lawyer Li, a gold medal lawyer, is a legal counsel hired by the food delivery platform company, and of course he also holds a certain proportion of shares.
Compared with his senior brother, it seems that he has supported a company with a market value of [-] billion, and there is nothing worthy of praise.
Because the market value of the company supported by my senior brother is nearly one trillion!
10 times the difference.
Lawyer Lin, his senior brother, has always been a stone in Lawyer Li's heart.
At the same time, it is also the goal that has been pursued and the object of yearning.
The two are brothers.
One is named Lin and the other is named Li.
They are both gold medal lawyers.
I don’t know how many people talk about it in the legal community and it has become a good talk.
From the same school, even the teachers who teach legal knowledge overlap to a large extent.
Two scroll kings.
Is the opponent.
They are also goals for each other to catch up with.
Rolled up for so many years.
Indirectly or directly, two companies can be called giants and leaders in business.
but!
In the end, they all stumbled upon Luo Kai.
In the end, they looked back at each other again in prison.
The two looked at each other.
It is estimated that only the person involved can understand the taste.
I have to say that this is a kind of irony and ridicule of fate.
After the two met in this place.
There was an illusion of being speechless and choking.
Thousands of words have no beginning.
Attorney Lin, the gold medal lawyer, was slightly older. He looked at his junior brother and gently tapped his rice bowl with the spoon in his hand.
"How's the food inside?"
"It seems... quite light, good for health!" Lawyer Li looked at the blue and white prison uniform he was wearing, and then looked at the food in the rice bowl in front of him.
High emotional intelligence: light and good for health.
Low EQ: Clear soup with little water!
But if you don't eat, you will starve to death.
No one will coddle them inside.
Have meals on time every day.
There are no extra meals.
Love to eat or not to eat, do not eat to pull down.
If you don’t eat, just wait until you get hungry.
The food in the prison is not very good.
Basically they are based on cabbage and the like.
You can see some fishy meat.
But it needs to be done at special times and festivals.
Of course, the most basic guarantees such as physical exertion are still there.
It's just that the taste is unacceptable.
This is also a potential penalty.
What if you eat a lot of fish and meat in there and eat havoc every day?
So are you here to use the sewing machine or to enjoy the happiness?
As a senior brother, Lawyer Lin smiled: "It's okay, you will get used to this kind of life in the future, we will all spend a few years here anyway!
I have to say that all the people in the prison are talented people. Many of those incarcerated are accountants, lawyers and other highly knowledgeable people!They were sent in either for economic crimes or for professional crimes! "
Lawyer Li: ...
If possible, I really don’t want to be such a person.
Inside the prison cafeteria.
During the meal time, there is an hour for free activities.
Of course, free activities are limited to holding rice bowls, bowls, chopsticks and spoons while waiting for rice.
A long oval table covered with iron sheets.
It can accommodate 20 people for dining together.
The chairs, tables and cutlery are all designed and processed with rounded corners.
And use hidden screws to fix the columns.
The screws are even covered with a layer of iron for welding.
All these facilities are to ensure that those who come here for transformation can clear their guilt without distraction, and have time to reflect on their mistakes during labor and education.And in this process, they can undergo transformation, change their minds, and even take the time to learn relevant knowledge and skills, so that after they are released from prison, these people can go out and become people who can keep up with the times.
Lawyer Li, a gold medal lawyer, was convicted of trade secret crimes and was sent in.
Not yet familiar with life inside.
Look at the contents of the rice bowl.
Finally, he used a spoon to put the white rice mixed with cabbage into his mouth: "Senior brother, why did you come to see me?"
"There's really something going on!"
"We are already working on sewing machines inside, what else can we do? Are we waiting for family members to come to visit the prison and spread the news to the outside world?"
As a junior, Lawyer Li sighed: "I don't want to bother anymore. I have given up everything. Senior brother, you and I have played the same role as Zhuge Liang these years, busy for the company, but my employer, My boss is obviously not a suitable person! He is also unable to protect himself and is expected to be sent in in a few days.
It’s not like senior brother you and your boss. During the period when you were caught working on a sewing machine, they still took time to meet and talk with you every month. Their relationship is still the same, just like a student and a teacher..."
As a senior brother, Lawyer Lin smiled.
He seems to be slightly better than his junior brother at this point?
"Speaking of teachers and students, are you interested in writing a book with me to write down the legal knowledge you have learned throughout your life, and then spread it out!"
"Some people say that no criminal can understand the loopholes of the law better. You and I are both prisoners now. If we have time, energy, and leisure, we seem to be able to calm down and write something. So do you want to come together?"
After hearing this, Lawyer Li frowned.
This time he raised his head very formally and looked at his senior brother: "If we follow the plot of novels or TV series, senior brother, you and I should be villains now, and we should die perfectly!
Perfectly killed by the protagonist!
Then end your life with the background sound of a happy ending!As a villain and a villain, you should have this kind of awareness.
Senior brother, you want to write a book, but I don’t want to write it!That's it, what I have learned in my life, I just want to take him into the coffin..."
Lawyer Lin looked at his junior brother and interrupted him directly: "If you write down some professional tips, your sentence can be reduced. Junior brother, will you do it!?"
Lawyer Li immediately raised his head: "Senior brother, when will you start? I can't wait. How many years can I lose weight?"
Lawyer Lin: ...
It was the two brothers who actually reached an agreement.
Write a book in it.
Prisons do not support idlers.
They also don't support the useless.
Those who have the strength to do physical work can go to the sewing machine to earn work points, and then go to the canteen in the prison to buy some snacks that they like.
If you don’t have physical strength, but if you have knowledge, you can help manage or educate others.
It is said that a certain university, when studying accounting, will specially organize freshmen to visit their previous seniors in the prison...
On the one hand, it allows for the exchange of professional knowledge, and on the other hand, it allows these future accountants to see clearly what will happen if they do something wrong...
It can be said to be a dual education of knowledge and morality.
Of course, this education method is too hard-core and cannot be popularized.
After all, the conditions are not qualified.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
All people are valuable.
Even stepping on a sewing machine can create value.
Ah!
Everything has value.
Everyone has something to offer.
The management inside the prison is based on this principle.
……
The two of them had already finished the contents of their rice bowls.
"Where to start?" Lawyer Li asked his senior brother.
"How about starting with company law?" Lawyer Lin suggested as a senior brother.
"Then I think it's okay. I feel that if our book is written, many people will probably read it! After all, this is a hands-on legal guide from two companies with a market value of at least [-] billion!"
Attorney Lin, a gold-medal lawyer, was originally the chief legal counsel of a shopping software company, and held a large number of shares in this company, which had a market capitalization that was close to breaking one trillion.
From investment to shareholding, and later to voting on the company's overall structure, we conducted an overall design!
The Bangzhayidao shopping software company was able to become such a powerful behemoth in just a few years. The role played by Lawyer Lin in this process cannot be underestimated!
For example, from the first few rounds of investment to the subsequent equity voting, the founder of the Bangqiayidao shopping software company was still able to control the entire company with a very small share, just because of this gold medal lawyer.
The profession of lawyer is no longer the first thing that needs to be marked on his business card.
But now it has become a thing of the past.
Was sent in by Luo Kai.
Because the programmer used crawler technology to hack Lawyer Luo's computer, he was found to have provided evidence and the defendant was prosecuted, and then he was sent in...
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
The two senior brothers were talking to each other.
After talking about the topic of writing a book, they all talked about the same person.
Rocky!
The young man who sent them both in.
A young lawyer in his 20s.
"When I came in, I heard that this guy surnamed Luo had borrowed an extremely difficult case. He wanted to take a rape case that the man personally admitted. The man had been detained for more than 100 days. From a lawyer's professional point of view Said, I think there is no possibility!
The possibility of winning this case and winning the lawsuit is basically 0, after all, the parties involved have already admitted the objective facts! "
As a senior lawyer, Lawyer Lin did not answer: "Before I came in, I didn't know the specific circumstances of this case. Let me elaborate on it. I can only understand the outside world through 30 minutes of news every day. I am also very curious. What case did this boy named Luo take on?"
Based on some information he learned before coming in, Lawyer Li told the case that Luo Kai received.
After all, I carefully calculated the time when this rape case occurred and when it became a hot search topic.
It did happen at this stage when Lawyer Li was under investigation but not yet prosecuted.
Lawyer Li doesn't pay attention to this case, but he will always unconsciously learn something about Luo Kai and his opponent...
"...The evidence currently held by the woman is the phone recording held by the mother-in-law. The man was tricked into telling the fact that the two had a relationship! The investigators also detained the man because of this substantial evidence." Lawyer Li told what he learned The information was told.
"What about the man? What happened after he was taken over by this guy named Luo? The compulsory measures were subsequently changed, right?" Lawyer Lin, as a senior brother, thought about it.
as a professional flaw.
After hearing the facts of the case, they will basically think and simulate from both the plaintiff and the defendant.
What are the chances that both parties will win or lose the case?
This is a basic skill for lawyers to judge whether a case can be accepted.
Any case that no lawyer wants to take on is a losing case, right?
It’s okay to lose one case, but if you keep losing the case, will clients still come to your door to find a lawyer to help with the lawsuit?
Obviously not.
Just like the profession of doctor, if no matter how big or small the illness is, it cannot be cured, then will anyone come to the clinic for treatment?
Obviously not.
"The boy named Luo actually filed a lawsuit on the grounds of marriage fraud. The investigators are currently collecting evidence. It is still unknown what evidence has been collected, but he seems confident and has even considered getting back the bride price and other expenses. situation, and filed a civil lawsuit..."
After hearing what his junior brother said, Lawyer Lin said: "I think there seems to be a slight improvement in this case. As a man, the possibility of winning the case is very low, but that doesn't mean there is no chance!"
"Brother, tell me carefully!"
Lawyer Lin raised his head and looked at the light outside the iron window: "The first case that will be opened in court is a rape case. As a man, you must first eliminate reasonable doubts about rape!
This is like proving one's innocence. How can one prove one's innocence without evidence and with one's own words?Generally speaking, it is difficult to explain clearly, even if you jump into the Yellow River, you can't understand it.
Among thousands of similar cases, it is generally difficult to explain clearly, but as long as it is done properly..."
"Tell me carefully..."

"Long time no see, junior brother!" Attorney Lin, the gold medal lawyer, waved his hand.
He held a big rice bowl in his hand.
