The beginning was serious, and the opposite side was scared by me and called the police!

Chapter 285 Judgment Announced: Demand the Death Penalty!
And the defendant side.

Qin Mu, who was on the lawyer's table, saw that the fire was coming, and stood up immediately.

Strike while the iron is hot.

He glanced at the opposing lawyer.

He said indifferently: "Even if I am a non-religious person, I know that the glory of the Lord cannot be desecrated. You people...how can you be in awe of the money donated to the church?"

"You just swore according to the Bible. To be honest, I don't believe a word of your words."

The voice just fell.

The jury behind him...

Become restless again.

After finally calming down, they were suddenly set ablaze by Qin Mu...

Light again!

What Qin Mu said hit their pain point completely.

As a devout religious...

They will never allow anyone to dare to desecrate the dignity of their church like this!

a time.

Everyone glared at George and Xu Liming angrily, and the insults continued.

And George, who just wanted to calm these fires...

See this scene.

His complexion changed suddenly, it was extremely ugly.

He originally thought that Qin Mu would object to what he said at this link, but he didn't expect Qin Mu to not talk about martial arts at all.

First is to light the fire.

Now go straight to the fire.

Never give him a chance to put out the fire.

"quiet!"

"quiet!"

"quiet!"

in court.

When the old judge Anthony saw this scene, his face was also livid with anger.

Constantly beating the gavel.

Reaffirm court discipline.

The bailiff also stepped forward one after another, warning and reminding the loudest juror among the twelve jurors.

only……

With little success.

Fantastically, they kept staring at George and Xu Liming, wishing to kill them.

"You scumbags! Liars! The Lord will never forgive you. You will go to hell after you die!"

"You don't deserve to be called human beings at all. You dare to tamper with the donations of the church. Do you think that everything will be fine if you throw the blame on that man named Zhao Wan?"

"Bah! Do you dare swear on the Bible that you haven't touched the money?"

"The Bible? They are not worthy to touch the Bible, let alone listen to the Lord's teaching!"

"..."

The twelve jurors were furious.

Looking at George and Xu Liming who were close in front of him, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.

Anyone with eyes can see that...

Zhao Wan is just a scapegoat.

The vested interests behind this incident must be the tourist group, including George and Xu Liming!

They were dazzled by anger...

They didn't care about right or wrong at all, they just wanted to make these two people suffer the punishment they deserved!
Let them pay the price for embezzling donations and blaspheming the glory of the Lord!
As for the case of Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua, they were not interested at all.

"quiet!"

And in court.

Old Judge Anthony wasted his tongue, and spent another time.

Only then did the twelve angry jurors be appeased.

then……

With a straight face, he looked at Qin Mu.

He snorted coldly: "The defendant's lawyer, please pay attention to your speech, and don't mention any irrelevant topics to stir up emotions!"

He just stood from the perspective of a bystander and saw clearly.

Qin Mu's speech...

It has nothing to do with evidence and claims at all.

It went straight to sow discord.

In order to provoke the anger of these jurors, in order to make the situation more favorable to him.

"This... Judge, I just made a joke, and I didn't provoke emotions, did I?"

After Qin Mu heard this, his face was full of innocence.

blinked.

He's at best...

It can only be regarded as learning from the other party and using the jury.

This is also where the jury system is easy to target.

No matter from which angle...

As long as you can win the support of the jury, you can win the lawsuit according to the rules.

in fact.

In this case, he also wanted to use evidence and legal knowledge to defeat the opponent.

but……

Under the case law system, there are too many established precedents in the past.

There's no way the judge will side with him.

He can only start with the jury's approval.

All it takes is for him to expose the true colors of George and Xu Liming...

The jury will completely change their minds.

These 12 people don't need to support them, they just need to hate George and Xu Liming.

to this end……

In the pre-trial conference, he deliberately showed weakness to the enemy.

Let the other person relax.

Then he threw out an excuse to force the opponent to give up Zhao Wan and use it to take the blame.

After it took the blame.

Then use the established facts that have been exposed to win the jury's preference.

If not...

He directly threw out the fact that the other party was greedy for ink and donated money. With George's eloquence, he would somewhat quibble.

Nor did the jurors know which side to believe.

"Absolutely, absolutely..."

aside.

Chen Tiankuo looked at Qin Mu and couldn't help swallowing.

Looking at Qin Mu's eyes became more and more fearful.

Just this moment.

He finally figured out these interlocking points.

In addition to the jury selection...

Also, I asked the other party to disclose the details of the donation funds before, just to wait until this moment!
And now.

All put together, the jury has completely turned in their favor.

The next lawsuit...

Let a pig fight, and it is impossible to lose.

And then.

He saw Qin Mu take a deep breath, and threw out another piece of evidence: "Here is what we collected in China, the relevant word-of-mouth of the Sunset Red Tour Group and the decision of administrative punishment by relevant law enforcement agencies!"

talking.

He then handed over the materials he had prepared to the clerk.

These word-of-mouth data...

He asked Qing Lan in China to help him collect them.

As for the penalty decision...

It was Zhang Wei who asked for help to find out.

In fact.

In addition to not having its business license revoked, the Sunset Red Tour Group was given administrative penalties for various problems.

Domestic reputation...

It is also quite poor.

That's why they're targeting older people who don't use the internet very much.

Only the elderly are more likely to be deceived, not knowing their word of mouth.

"From these materials, everyone can see the true face of this tour group."

Qin Mu looked back at all parties in the court, and said in a deep voice: "They don't pay attention to business reputation and morality, and use various routines to defraud the elderly and defraud them of their money. Many elderly people in our country have already been fooled. cheated."

And with his explanation.

This information was passed on in court.

The old judge Anthony quickly finished reading these materials, showing a look of surprise.

If it is said that Qin Mu's previous actions were still nonsense and unreliable in his eyes...

Now this evidence made him formally examine this multinational company called "Sunset Red Tour Group".

A company with such a bad reputation...

Obviously not groundless.

There must be all kinds of shady things inside it.

Combined with Zhao Wan's matter, he also had some doubts about Xu Liming's side.

Most likely……

As Qin Mu and others said, this tour group was really involved in defrauding the elderly.

And below the court.

The jury was even more excited and angry when they saw the evidence Qin Muluo listed.

"Oh Maikar, I knew that this group of people is not a good thing!"

"This tourist group gets out of our country, this kind of company should suspend them and prohibit them from engaging in market operations!"

"Even people in their country can't understand them. With so many bad reviews, they are all accusing them of lying. Obviously, they are not good birds!!"

"Go to hell! God will send them to hell!"

"..."

The voice of abuse and cursing is active in the court again.

And it was out of control.

The old judge Anthony could only keep knocking on the gavel, and shouted the familiar two words: "Silence!"

"quiet!"

"quiet!"

The bailiffs followed suit, constantly warning the jurors.

Reaffirm court order.

And on the plaintiff's side.

When Xu Liming saw the evidence Qin Mu listed on the field, his complexion suddenly turned pale.

He quickly looked at George.

Cast a look for help.

Qin Mu's hand...

Once again, it exceeded his expectations and caught him off guard.

He checked Qin Mu's domestic information, and Qin Mu also checked their domestic information!

In contrast...

Their information is even more shameful!
"You guys... are so notorious in China? Why didn't you say it earlier?"

And George saw it.

On the other hand, he gritted his teeth and stared back at Xu Liming in disbelief.

Face full of shock.

Although he cooperated with Xu Liming and the others, he didn't know the domestic evaluation and word-of-mouth of Sunset Red at all.

this matter……

Being thrown out suddenly by Qin Mu also made him not know how to deal with it.

Xu Liming smiled wryly, and said aggrievedly, "You didn't ask."

The reputation of the sunset red tour group in China...

He never cared.

Their target group is the elderly who do not use the Internet very much.

Word of mouth is almost no problem.

He didn't think it was a big deal either.

Looking at Xu Liming's innocent expression, George trembled with anger.

Xu Liming did not understand the laws of their area.

Don't know the seriousness of it.

But he is a lawyer.

It is too clear how much influence the word-of-mouth in their country has on the company.

He gritted his teeth and was about to speak.

I heard Qin Mu go on to say: "According to the "Company Law" of your country, the company has the representative and guiding role of social morality. A company with a lot of negative comments means that the public opinion does not trust it, and it means that this company has a need question of investigation."

"Here is the letter of intent signed by the remaining 28 elderly people in this tour group."

Then go on.

Qin Mu took out another thick stack of documents: "I request the court to initiate an investigation into the company, find out the dirty transactions behind it, and give justice to the many victims!"

Done.

He submitted the information to the clerk.

The evidence he presented...

It was not to prove the case claims of Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua, but to directly deal with the foreign part of the tour group.

This company is a multinational organization and its business scope is also multinational.

The City of Arms has the right to administer it.

And according to the laws of this country, companies with too much social evaluation and negative news...

are entitled to review and supervision by the courts.

All it takes is a legitimate Expression of Interest to apply for that review to start.

he used...

It is this article in the company law that directly draws the bottom line!

Start a further thorough investigation of the company!
He believed.

As long as it is checked, no matter how much this company hides it, it will not be able to hide it.

At that time, the source and whereabouts of funds will be clear at a glance!
"This one……"

And in court.

After reading these letters of intent, Anthony frowned slightly.

Qin Mu filed a new lawsuit.

This request is not necessarily related to the case of Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua.

but……

According to the "Company Law", this company with too many negative comments should indeed be reviewed.

"The initiation of the review will be discussed after this case, and the trial of Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua's case will continue now!"

Think carefully.

He took a deep breath and decided to put the lawsuit at the end of the list.

And this scene...

However, Xu Liming's eyes in the plaintiff's seat went dark, and he slumped down on the ground.

"It's over..."

He only felt that the world in front of him was dark.

Not a gleam of brilliance.

Qin Mu's trick is to draw the fire from the bottom of the pot...

He was completely stunned.

It was obvious that they were discussing the case of Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua, but Qin Mu didn't follow the routine from the beginning to the end.

First, attack Zhao Wan.

Then there's the jury induction.

just now……

Even directly attack their company!
At this moment, the emotion of regret in his heart was stronger than ever.

If I had known that Zhang Qingyuan knew Qin Mu...

He dared not go to court with Qin Mu even if he said anything.

Thinking of Qin Mu's illustrious achievements in China, he couldn't help but feel extremely bitter.

Own……

It seems careless.

It has become a negative teaching material in Qin Mu's case.

……

City of Arms.

Court.

three hours later.

"Boom-"

The old judge Anthony sounded the gavel, announcing the end of the debate.

then……

He looked at Xu Liming and George in the plaintiff's seat with complicated expressions.

Xu Liming is fine.

In the link of proof, the "vitality" has been lost, the whole process is listless, and the face is ashen.

And George...

But he persisted all the time, fighting with Qin Mu until the debate.

During this period of free debate.

Put forward a lot of rebuttal point of view, solid foundation.

but……

But Qin Mu stripped the cocoon, starting from the composition of each law.

Refute them one by one.

In eloquence.

Qin Mu even formed a crushing trend and gained the absolute upper hand.

Whenever Qin Mu speaks...

There will be a burst of applause from the jury.

Qin Mu has completely won the approval of these jury members with his performance in these stages!
And George, who was originally quite eloquent...

The skeptical person who was directly attacked was speechless.

Quite a sense of despair.

"Next, temporarily adjourn for three or 10 minutes."

Anthony took a deep breath and announced an adjournment.

Subsequently.

He motioned to the clerk and the bailiff to organize the twelve jurors, and led them to the courtroom.

After everyone took their seats one after another.

Only then did he solemnly say: "Everyone has also finished watching the trial. As for the case of Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua, let's all vote on their own verdicts."

as a judge.

He has no right to a trial in the presence of a jury.

Only auxiliaries.

What can really decide the verdict of this case are the twelve jurors in front of him.

"I think Xu Liming should be sentenced to death and George should be sentenced to 100 years in prison!"

"The death penalty must be the death penalty! And the business license of this company must be revoked, and they must not be allowed to continue to operate!"

"Death penalty, support the death penalty! Why do companies like this still exist?"

"Send them to God and let God decide whether to forgive them or not."

"..."

And the seat.

The twelve jurors chattered and quickly expressed their verdicts.

Anthony's face was covered with black lines, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

God damn death penalty.

He is now very speechless to this group of angry religious believers.

because of one small thing...

sentenced to death.

If the news spread, he might not be able to work as a judge in the future.

No one else dared to come to him to file a lawsuit.

And George just helped defend for a while, and he was awarded 100 years in prison, which is even more outrageous.

only……

As soon as he thought of the low level of education of these people, he was instantly relieved.

like……

This is also the result of Qin Mu's selection.

Qin Mu probably took advantage of this to arouse the emotions of these people.

"Ahem, the death penalty does not apply to the law at all, and the sentence cannot be judged like this."

He looked at the 12 people in front of him, and reminded him tactfully again.

Then popularized relevant legal knowledge to everyone.

Cai went on to say: "You don't need to give a specific judgment, you only need to give a general direction of the judgment."

By jury system.

The jury's trial power is only to determine the facts and make a judgment, without specific sentencing or specific civil compensation.

Say someone kills someone.

The jury can only give a verdict that the murderer is guilty or not guilty of the murder or that the sentence for the murder should be reduced.

It is his job to decide how to judge.

He decides the scope of the law applicable to the judgment.

"Then Xu Liming and the others must be sentenced to lose. Is this kind of person worthy of winning the lawsuit?"

"I think that foreign lawyer is good, but unfortunately he doesn't believe in religion, and he was born to be a priest."

"I think the defendant is mediocre, but I just can't understand the plaintiffs, they can't win!"

"The defendant wins, this kind of travel company, if it doesn't go bankrupt soon, will it be saved for Christmas?"

"..."

After listening, these jurors spoke enthusiastically again.

expressed their opinions.

The opinions of the 12 people were surprisingly unanimous, and they all supported Qin Mu.

To be precise, everything was against Xu Liming.

Even if the lawsuit lasted for three hours...

The anger in their hearts still hasn't disappeared.

"Since everyone has a decision direction, let's sign and vote here."

Anthony took a deep look at the 12 people and waved his hand.

The clerk behind him immediately stepped forward and took out a letter of intent to judge.

Put it in front of 12 people.

Without hesitation, the 12 people wrote their verdicts in favor of Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua.

Unanimously voted in favor of the defendant.

Without exception.

He looked at the final judgment in front of him and sighed softly.

In the judge's judgment column...

The word "agreed" was written, and the specific applicable legal judgment was added.

in fact.

As a judge, he can directly overrule the verdicts of these jurors.

According to the established judgment cases in the past, such a judgment is "illegal".

but……

In court, Qin Mu presented a lot of evidence and listed many laws and regulations.

It made him re-examine it.

There are too many "stains" of this sunset red tour group.

On the incident of Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua.

Although Qin Mu did not provide any evidence to prove the other party's "fraud" behavior, based on his years of experience, he has also seen a lot of tricks in it.

The most important thing……

It was the decision of the jury members, and he was not allowed to contest it without special necessity.

Three 10 minutes later.

With twelve jurors, he walked into the civil trial court again.

"All rise!"

In the clerk's presiding voice, everyone in the court stood up.

Anthony lowered his head, looking at the verdict in his hand.

Shen Sheng said: "This case has been deliberated by the jury, as well as the application and adjustment of the law by the judge. The trial has now been completed and the facts of the incident have been found out."

"According to the jury's opinion, Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua didn't believe in religion, but suddenly donated money, which is quite unreasonable."

"Although the plaintiff failed to provide evidence of fraudulent behavior, it cannot deny the existence of the behavior, and there are many elderly people in the tour group who don't believe in religion but donate money..."

"According to the legal facts and basis, this court believes that the signatures of Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua do not have legal effect, and the donation agreement is invalid."

"The following judgments are now rendered:
[-]. All claims of the plaintiff Xu Liming are dismissed;
[-]. After passing the request for company review put forward by the defendant, the case-filing review of Xiyanghong Tourism Company will be launched immediately. "

"From the effective date of this judgment..."

After a few minutes.

The verdict is read out.

The entire court was silent again.

most excited...

No more than the 12 members of the jury.

They all showed expressions of excitement and relief.
