Tokyo Barrister: Start the law firm bankruptcy

Chapter 87
The TV screen began to play a scene slowly: but the camera was seen shaking a little, as if it was shooting from outside the door of an open-air corridor towards the building.But he saw that the room was filled with smoke, and the white mist from cigarettes was everywhere. A bald man sat in the middle of the table, his face was full of red, and the table was full of scattered beer bottles.

In the video of the camera, a girl in a yellow overalls asked the bald man, "Director, can we still do the inspection in the afternoon?"Hearing this question, the bald man cursed directly and rudely: "What are you inspecting?!"

At the moment when the scolding broke out, the microphone squeaked, as if a needle had pierced the audio equipment in the courtroom and stirred on the eardrum of the audio system. Many people in the auditorium could not stand the harsh sound. , showing a somewhat uncomfortable expression, and covered his ears with his hands.

Later, the girl in the yellow overalls in the video asked, "If we don't go to work, how should we fill out the inspection record form?" Signed for ten days.

There was an endless stream of chatter and noise in the room.However, the pen in the bald man's hand rubbed the pen tip against the paper, and the writing sound of "Shuo Shuo" was particularly ear-piercing amidst all the background noises.

The video ends abruptly.

The courtroom became silent again, just as if the scene of the car accident on the driving recorder had just been played.

Beiyuan lightly pressed the end button on the remote control, stood beside the TV screen, and said seriously: "Chief referee. This video was recorded in June this year. It was accidentally shot when I visited the G6 highway maintenance center involved in the case." Fragment. The bald man in the film is Naganoyu, the Maintenance Center Bureau of the G227 Expressway, and the woman in the yellow overalls in the film is named Suda Chiyo. Both are employees of Kawamoto Expressway."

Beiyuan handed the two pieces of employee information to the judge on the referee's seat, turned around and continued: "From this video, we can see that Nagano, the maintenance center bureau, drank openly during working hours. The maintenance of the G227 section of the Kawamoto Expressway In the center, the internal management regulations have expired, the inspection system is useless, and the superiors openly took the lead in falsifying and back-signing the daily inspection and maintenance form. The so-called Chuanben Expressway maintains the expressway in accordance with national standards, which is nothing but a big lie!"

With a "beep", a drop of sweat fell on the desktop in the dock. When Imam watched this video, his face was already a little pale.Especially when Kitahara said that the man in the video was the maintenance director of the Kawamoto Expressway on the G227 section of the road involved in the case, Imanishi already felt a little dizzy.

A feeling of being stabbed in the back ignited in Imanishi.I still remember that after the first trial, I asked Kotaro face to face, and asked Kotaro to truthfully answer whether the Kawamoto Expressway was maintained in strict accordance with national standards. Kotaro gave himself an extremely positive answer.

Later, when Chuanben Expressway provided evidence according to my request, I didn't think too much about it, and directly believed in the authenticity of the written materials they submitted, including various internal rules and regulations, record sheets, and attendance sheets.

and many more.

Daily checklist? !

Imanishi suddenly remembered that the man named Kuno in the video had directly signed a patrol form on the desktop.And the written information submitted by oneself also has a checklist.If this record sheet is also backdated... No, there is a 90.00% chance that it is backdated.Especially that Kuno back-dated inspection form, which looked familiar and skillful, that inspection record form, no!Almost all forms should be fucking backdated! ! !
At this moment, he looked towards the referee's seat.The inspection form has been sandwiched in a pile of written materials, and it is at Judge Kumagai's hand at this time.

Oh no.

This time it was completely bad.

It's too late to get it back.Imam's expression became more and more ugly, and his whole face twitched slightly.

Before he knew it, Beiyuan had already walked to the side of the dock, looked down at Imanishi, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, then turned to look at the three judges on the trial bench: "Chief referee. The video just now showed that Kuno was lying down. Sign an inspection form. Although the back-signed form in the video is not the plaintiff Terai’s inspection form that day, based on this, the plaintiff’s attorney has reason to believe that this fraud has become a bad habit in the maintenance center of the G227 section of highway. "

"The plaintiff's agent believes that the series of record forms, cleaning forms, and attendance forms submitted by the defendant's agent just now may have been forged by employees of Sichuan Expressway through continuous back-dating."

"Now I am going to the court to apply for a judicial appraisal! I will verify the handwriting time of the employees' signatures on a series of forms submitted by the defendant just now, and identify whether the relevant forms have been continuously backdated and forged. I hope the court will allow it!"

Beiyuan's voice of "applying for judicial appraisal" faintly resounded in the courtroom.

The legal team of Kawamoto Expressway in the auditorium has begun to panic.Some people have ignored the disciplinary requirements of the court to observe, and directly took out their mobile phones, lowered their heads, pressed the message with trembling hands, entered the text, and asked the legal colleagues in the headquarters to immediately start checking the content of the video just now authenticity.

The convincing power of this video is too strong, especially, it gives people a feeling that the maintenance system under the Kawamoto Expressway has been rotten to the root.Coupled with the fact that the man blatantly backdated the inspection form in the clip, it caused extremely destructive damage to the probative power of the series of documents submitted by Imanishi just now.

"Chief referee!" Imanishi stood up, his forehead already full of sweat: "The source of this video is unknown. Whether the shooting location is the maintenance center of the G227 expressway needs to be verified! Whether the person in the video clip is Kawamoto Expressway employees Kuno Yu and Suda Chiyo are yet to be verified! I hope the court will give the defendant ample time to prepare and cross-examine this video in court instead of submitting written supplementary opinions after court.”

Judge Kumagai in the judge's seat listened to Imanishi's request, bowed his head in thought, looked at the documents at hand from time to time, and then looked at the picture displayed on the TV screen in the plaintiff's seat.After a few minutes, Judge Kumagai sighed slightly, as if he had some dissatisfaction in his heart, he raised his head and said:

"The video clip newly submitted by the plaintiff just now is of great importance to this case. It is directly related to whether Chuanben Expressway fulfills its road maintenance obligations in accordance with national standards. It is the key evidence related to the main facts of this case. Therefore, the authenticity of this video, The legality and relevance should be fully cross-examined during the trial before they can be accepted. This court allows time for the defendant to cross-examine in the next trial.”

After the words fell, Judge Kumagai turned his head to look at Beiyuan, who was sitting in the plaintiff's seat, and said with a serious face: "Plaintiff's representative. This court is now admonishing you. Evidence that is of great concern to such a situation should be submitted within the period of proof. .Never allow this to happen again next time!"

Afterwards, Judge Kumagai turned his head again, and sternly reprimanded the lawyers on both sides of the seat: "In this case, it is obviously too serious for the representatives of both parties to submit evidence beyond the proof period. For ordinary evidence, it is fine to submit it in court. What now? What evidence, you all engaged in raids! Seriously slowed down the efficiency of the trial! Now, this court has officially informed the attorneys of the plaintiff and the defendant. All evidence, I don’t care what evidence you have, what reason, or special circumstances, all must be Submit before the next court hearing! Overdue submissions will not be accepted by this court!"

"Adjourn!"

"Crack", the gavel hit the wooden seat with a loud bang, expressing Judge Kumagai's inner dissatisfaction.

The second trial is over.
