You were asked to be a lawyer, and you sent the judge to jail?

Chapter 165: Go through the process immediately and prepare for appeal!

Gu Chen said, "Okay, I'll take this case. I'll send you my contact information in a private message. You can add me directly and we'll talk about it in detail later. I'll learn about this case first."

Niu Xiaojuan burst into tears of gratitude, "Okay, okay, thank you, Lawyer Gu."

All the netizens in the live broadcast room supported Niu Xiaojuan.

[There is an outlaw! Don't worry, I will definitely help your son reduce his sentence! He definitely can't be sentenced to fifteen years. After all, it wasn't Niu Xiaojuan's son who stole the money. He just wanted to pay for his father's medical treatment. Besides, it was the bank's problem. The bank didn't give him the money and had to make things difficult for him. Who can they blame? ]

[That’s true, but the criminal gave the money to this guy, and then he took the money to the hospital. No matter what, it seems that he did break the law. Can his sentence be reduced? ]

[I feel that fifteen years is a bit too heavy, after all, it is understandable. Considering that the elder brother was trying to save his father, I feel that he can be given a lighter sentence. There is no need to punish him so severely. Who can bear the consequences of sentencing him to fifteen years right away? ]

[It’s okay, Lawyer Gu will help. Lawyer Gu will help reduce the sentence. I think a reduced sentence means winning the case.]

[The main reason is that the lawyer hired in the first trial was too unreliable. He only said one sentence for 160,000 yuan? He did nothing? If the lawyer in the first trial had defended him, he would not have been sentenced to 15 years. ]

[I feel bad for my brother, but to be honest, banks are usually really strong and disgusting. They are not responsible for anything after you leave the bank. This is really disgusting and I can't stand it. ]

Gu Chen said, "Let's stop here for today's live broadcast. I have to add the parties to understand the situation. I will do the live broadcast next time. I was thinking of taking a two-day break, but now it seems that I can't take a break. I still have to work on the case."

After Gu Chen finished the live broadcast, he immediately contacted Niu Xiaojuan.

Niu Xiaojuan asked on the phone: "Lawyer Gu, how much will it cost to file a lawsuit with you?"

Gu Chen said: "Now I file a lawsuit for 200,000 yuan per case, but this case is special. If I win, I can just let the bank pay the litigation costs."

Niu Xiaojuan nodded, "Lawyer Gu, the amount of money doesn't matter. I just want you to help us fight this lawsuit. No matter what the final result is, it would be fine if you can help reduce my son's sentence."

Gu Chen said: "I need to look at the details of the case. Send me the address and anything else you know, and we can talk in person."

Niu Xiaojuan said: "Well, OK."

The address was sent to Gu Chen.

Gu Chen looked around and found that he was still in Jiangcheng.

It takes at least two or three hours by plane from Yuncheng to Jiangcheng.

Gu Chen looked at Xue Qingqing and said, "It seems that you can't rest now. Book a flight for tomorrow, pack up, and go to Jiangcheng tomorrow. We have to file a lawsuit again."

Xue Qingqing said, "Boss, I think this case is difficult. The court has sentenced him to fifteen years in the first instance. Moreover, Zhao Yishan took the money given by the robbers to go to the hospital to treat his father's illness. It is indeed not right. Zhao Yishan did break the law in this case. How can we defend him?"

Gu Chen said: "Do you think Zhao Yishan broke the law?"

Xue Qingqing looked at Gu Chen with an innocent look on her face. "Isn't it illegal? Although I think there is no problem in theory, the problem is with the bank, but the money the robbers robbed is stolen money. If you take the stolen money to treat your illness, you will be considered an accomplice of the robbers. They don't care what you do with the money. As long as you take the money, the nature of the crime has changed."

Gu Chen smiled and said, "You'll know after reading the case file. If it's really what Niu Xiaojuan said, then I think Zhao Yishan is basically innocent. At most there will be a small impact, and his sentence won't be long."

Xue Qingqing's eyes widened. "Basically not guilty? Boss, how are you going to defend your innocence?"

Xue Qingqing’s professional ability as a lawyer is also very strong.

But she really couldn't figure out how to defend Zhao Yishan and prove he was not guilty in this case.
It takes a lot of skill to defend a person who was sentenced to fifteen years in prison and win the case.

This case is different from all the cases Gu Chen has fought before. In the cases Gu Chen has fought before, he either relied on self-defense or had solid evidence to win the case.

Even in the previous hit-and-run case, he was eventually acquitted because the old man was indeed trying to commit fraud.

But the nature of this lawsuit is different.

No matter how disgusting the bank is, no matter how many rules and regulations it sets to prevent Zhao Yishan from withdrawing money.
But the robber did give the money to Zhao Yishan.

Zhao Yishan also used the money to go to the hospital to treat his father's illness.

No matter what Zhao Yishan did with the money, he did take the money stolen by the robbers.
This alone is illegal.

Could the boss actually reverse the charge of robbery?

Gu Chen said: "You will know when the time comes. Have a good rest tonight. Help me book a flight ticket and go to Jiangcheng tomorrow."

Xue Qingqing was still a little shocked, but she still trusted her boss very much.

This is why she followed Gu Chen to study.

In many cases, if she were asked to handle the lawsuit, she could actually handle it very well.

But Xue Qingqing really didn't know how to handle a lawsuit like this on her own.

She had no idea how Gu Chen would approach the case.

If she were to prosecute this case, she would definitely say that Zhao Yishan did not commit robbery, and secondly, Zhao Yishan was in a hurry to use the money to save people, which is understandable and she can be given a lighter punishment.

In this case, even if the court gives Zhao Yishan a lighter sentence, he will still be sentenced to at least seven to ten years in prison.
The best she can do is to plead for a reduced sentence.
Unlike Gu Chen, who said right away that he was basically innocent.
This is very different from robbery!

The crime of robbery will result in a sentence of many years!
But once the nature changes, the nature of the case also changes!
Xue Qingqing quickly booked a plane ticket, went back to pack her things, and prepared to leave for the airport the next day.

Early the next morning, Gu Chen and Xue Qingqing set out for Jiangcheng.

On the plane, Xue Qingqing looked at Gu Chen and said, "Boss, what are our chances of winning this lawsuit?"

Gu Chen said: "There is no case with a 99.99999% chance of winning. This case should have a % chance of winning."

Xue Qingqing: “???”

What is the difference between 99.9999% and 100% winning rate?
In other words, the boss is 90 percent sure of this case!
The two of them quickly arrived in Jiangcheng.

After arriving in Jiangcheng, Gu Chen and Xue Qingqing met Niu Xiaojuan first.

After Gu Chen understood the situation, he signed a contract with Niu Xiaojuan.

Niu Xiaojuan said: "Thank you, Lawyer Gu, for helping me with this case. Thank you, Lawyer Gu. Lawyer Gu, should we appeal the second instance?"

Gu Chen shook his head and said, "Well, let's go through the process right away and prepare for the appeal!"
