Life as a police officer in America

Chapter 353 Special Thieves

How dare someone kidnap a policeman in Gumeng Town, Alaska?
Wang Dengming wondered if his sheriff was too useless. Someone used his license plate before, and someone kidnapped his subordinates later. It was fun.

When Wang Dengming arrived at the old Migues Hotel, a thin man with withered hair and extremely sunken eyes was waiting for him at the door of the hotel.

I have an acquaintance, his name is Alexo Kun, he is Sophia's husband, he works in the court in the town, he is equivalent to the clerk in the court, assisting the judge in handling all kinds of messy cases in the court.

When Wang Dengming went to Sophia's house last time, this guy pointed a spear at him.

The name of clerk in Europe and the United States is a bit confusing. It can be called court recorder or stenographer. Depending on the country, some clerks have positions in court trials, and some do not. They are purely judges' assistants and the length of employment varies. one.

They have been silent witnesses in countless trials and jury investigations of all types.They record witness statements, lawyers' challenges, and judges' orders.If both the plaintiff and the defendant question the authenticity of certain testimony during the trial, they can correct it immediately based on the content of the stenographer's speech.

The clerk's transcript is often an important part of the trial record.

Lawyers often use it to find possible avenues of appeal, and judges may review transcripts before ruling.In most districts, the transcript produced by the clerk is the official record of the trial.It makes it very important and the requirements for accuracy are very high.

Therefore, although the clerk rarely speaks, he is a very important figure in the court.

Of course, the judges and the clerks are not always on good terms, and the clerks will fight back. The infighting between the judges and the clerks not only damages the tall image of the judge itself, but also damages the overall image of the judge. However, the phenomenon of clerks defecting is very rare.

The reason is also very simple. Many clerks will eventually become judges. They are the third echelon of American judges and reserve talents.

Every time Wang Dengming appeared in court as a police witness, he was basically seen.

It has to be said that he is a competent clerk.

At the beginning, Wang Dengming didn't know that he was Sophia's husband. It wasn't until Feng Ge Lilong beat Feng Ge Lilong hard on the radio that Wang Dengming figured out that the two were a couple.

Fengge Lilong is the chief prosecutor, and the little clerk has nothing to do with Fengge Lilong. Wang Dengming and Fengge Lilong have such an affair. When the little clerk ran into Wang Dengming, his eyes were different.

In Wang Dengming's impression, this is a quiet, even cowardly man. The whole town knows about Sophia's domestic violence incident. Alexokun left some battle marks on his face and neck.

Therefore, Wang Dengming's first reaction was to see the devil when he heard that Alexo Kun had tied up Sophia and the detective in the old Miggs Hotel.

What is even more surprising is that today he has a servant, who is also an acquaintance of Wang Dengming, a woman named Fei Luochun, who is Tu Ge Dengbu's exclusive lawyer.

This woman, with a horse face, looks like a real witch, but some people say that this woman is old and distinctive, and there is no one in the United States who can match her face.

She likes to wear black suits very much. She likes to wear black in spring, summer, autumn and winter, whether it is skirts, coats, shoes, socks. She is called the black widow. She is divorced and single so far.

She and Fengge Lilong are known as the two wonderful flowers of the judicial system in Gumeng Town, Alaska.

Wang Dengming has experienced the black widow's ability to fight lawsuits, second only to Chief Prosecutor Feng Ge Lilong.

Wang Deng had fought her for eight rounds of verbal wars, all of which ended in Sergeant Wang's disastrous defeat. Therefore, Sergeant Wang would subconsciously feel vigilant when he saw this person.

Last year, after Wang Dengming was promoted to the police chief, he beat up Tu Ge Dengbu violently in order to fight for the position of the boss of the town. At that time, Wang Dengming was worried that this girl would make trouble.

But Tu Ge Dengbu saw that Wang Dengming was so good at fighting, so he thought of a way to let Wang Dengming go to the ring to help him recover. How could he let the black widow sue Wang Dengming, and the matter was over.

Today, the black widow was standing next to Alexokun, holding a black briefcase in her hand. Wang Dengming felt that something was wrong. This bitch was probably going to make trouble, but Wang Dengming immediately thought, Tu Ge Dengbu is my younger brother, so I won't be afraid of you.

"Hello, Sergeant Wang."

Alexokun reached out his hand first, and Wang Dengming reached out to shake hands.

"Mr. Alexokun, you are so courageous that you dare to tie the policeman to the bed. Do you know what this is?"

Wang Dengming first came to dismount.

"I know, this is called assaulting the police."

Wang Dengming stared: "Knowing that you still do it?"

Fei Luochun smiled and said: "This has nothing to do with Judge Alexo Kun. I made people do this, Mr. Sheriff."'

"Judge??"

Wang Dengming thought he had heard wrong.

Black Widow: "Yes, judge, the Aras Gumeng Town Court has become the third trial court, and Alexo Kun is the first judge of the third trial court, Mr. Sheriff."

"Nonsense, when did it happen?"

There are several courtrooms in the court in the ancient town of Arras, how could Wang Dengming not know.

In the United States, you have to go to court, find a lawyer, or find a judge.

Regardless of whether it is a district court or a state court, according to the size of the city, the size of the population, and the degree of development, different courts will be set up according to the actual situation, and different courts will go to different courts according to different cases.

In some courts, especially those in big cities, there are so many trial divisions that people who go to trial can't find the north.

The town of Alas Gumont is small, and there are only two courts in the town, one is the civil court and the other is the criminal court. Where is the third court emerging now?
The black widow saw that Wang Dengming was dazed, and said with a smile, "It's the Small Claims Tribunal, which has been established for five days." '

Wang Dengming's eyes blinked suddenly.

There is a kind of court in the United States that does not require a lawyer, commonly known as the Small Claims Court (Small Claims Court).As the name implies, the small claims court is a trial of small civil cases with a small amount of litigation. It belongs to the local judicial system and is governed by the laws of each state.The purpose of the establishment is to allow the public to directly participate in the trial of small-sum cases, reduce litigation costs, and improve trial efficiency. The process is simpler than that of ordinary civil courts, and the legal knowledge of the parties is not high. No need to hire lawyers, and cases can be concluded quickly.

The standards for accepting cases in small claims courts are generally determined according to the amount of litigation, which is formed by the laws of each state.For example, in California, the amount of the lawsuit does not exceed $10.

The cases accepted by the small claims court are mainly small money cases that are closely related to people's lives. Many state laws actually allow lawyers to participate in the trial of small claims cases, but there is no rigid requirement. Some state laws do not allow lawyers to represent them, such as California Both New York State and New York State prohibit lawyers from appearing in court, but some people hire lawyers as translators.

Such as breach of contract disputes, infringement disputes, identity cases (defamation, insult, infringement of reputation rights), marriage cases, then small claims courts cannot hear them, and need to go to a district court or a designated court for adjudication.

Common causes of action in small claims courts, such as minor car accidents, personal safety, dog bites, etc., outstanding, such as deposits, property, etc.; non-payment, such as salary, service fees, insurance compensation, rent, commissions, etc.; Execution of contracts, such as agreements, leases, contracts, etc.; loss of luggage, property, etc.; bounced checks, stop payment, etc.; failure to provide repairs, services, and product quality problems.

"Sergeant Wang, did you hear me clearly?"

Wang Dengming reacted: "Then you are"

Alexokun said in a dignified tone, "Fei Luochun, I'm my secretary now."

Wang Dengming immediately grinned and said, "Okay, as a court judge and secretary, if you know the law and break the law, just wait!"

Wang Dengming turned his head and wanted to leave, but the black widow called him: "Sergeant Wang, don't threaten me, if your police officer commits the crime of theft, can I find someone to tie him up, and then tell the police What? I'm doing something for you, you should thank me."

Wang Dengming was really confused.
