Chapter 1036 Domestic Violence
The presiding judge and jurors appeared in the trial court on time, and the lawsuit officially began soon.

This is Liu Xiaotian's second court appearance in the law firm. Because he did very well in the first court appearance, Lawyer Hu brought him to this important lawsuit this time. The performance is really good.

"Mr. Judge, fellow jurors, my client was originally an honest and stable businessman who ran his own factory. His factory had a cooperative relationship with the defendant Yida Sales Company for eight years. They provided them with high-quality sound field products at the lowest price, but the eight-year cooperation did not make the other party feel any gratitude, on the contrary, they used contract fraud to deceive my client and put my client in danger!"

Lawyer Hu stood up first, and spoke slowly. Her voice was high and low, which set off the atmosphere very well. In addition, Boss Zhao's red eyes easily aroused the sympathy of others.

"I object!"

The opposing lawyer also stood up and said loudly to the judge: "Mr. Judge, I object to the plaintiff's attorney's unsubstantiated slander. My client has indeed cooperated with the plaintiff for eight years, but there is absolutely no contract." Fraud, my client has always been a law-abiding and legitimate businessman!"

"The objection is valid, please pay attention to your wording!"

"Yes, Mr. Judge!"

Attorney Hu nodded. Although she was successfully refuted by the other party at the beginning, she didn't pay any attention to it. This situation was also what they thought of when they conducted court deduction in advance. The reason why they said this was to give the judge and jurors Create the first impression that they are victims.

"Your Honor, this is the contract signed by my client and the defendant. The contract stipulates that the payment shall be calculated based on the sales situation, and the final sales amount shall be used to determine the amount of payment for the goods. However, there is no such statement in the contract. The defendant used the promotion, The calculation of the payment for goods during discounts and other price reduction activities, and the defendant did not notify my client in advance of every promotion and discount. As a result, their payment was not only delayed each time, but the amount was insufficient, or even less than the cost price. The external promotion cost is imposed on my client, which is basically the Bawang clause. According to the 2233 revision of my country's "Contract Law", the final interpretation of the 830th jump on the Bawang contract, my client and I I implore the court to declare this contract invalid, and the defendant compensate my client for the shortfall in sales over the past year. According to the list of goods from both parties over the past year, the defendant needs no more than [-] million in payment!"

Lawyer Hu proposed the "Contract Law". There is indeed such a clause in the Contract Law. Provisions that are contrary to subjective ideas and are obviously unreasonable can be regarded as overlord clauses, and one can claim that the contract is invalid and demand compensation.

Lawyer Hu has a master's degree in law, and he is very familiar with these basic laws and regulations. He directly moved out the provisions of the contract law in court.

Liu Xiaotian has not spoken all this time, he has been quietly looking at Lawyer Hu and the defendant, the lawsuit is not so easy to fight, it is impossible for them to agree to this lawsuit because of this, otherwise Boss Zhao would not have to delay it for so long, and even other people I don't want to take this lawsuit.

Lawyer Hu herself didn't think that she could win in this way. It was like two martial arts masters fighting each other. There must be offense and defense. Now she is the attacker, testing the opponent's reaction.

"I object!"

The defendant's lawyer stood up again and quickly began his statement.

According to what he said, there is no overlord clause in this contract. It is a stipulation that the two parties agree to settle the payment based on the sales volume and sales amount of the goods, and the explanation is clear. Moreover, his client did not withhold the payment for one time and refuse to pay, or did not pay. The fact of giving payment.

As for promotions and discounts, his client had notified the plaintiff in advance each time, and each time he had obtained the approval of the other party. He also provided the signature of Boss Zhao agreeing to promotions and discounts every time.

This is the cleverness of the other party. Every time there is an event, he will tell Boss Zhao. At the beginning, he said that this is also an opportunity to promote Boss Zhao’s brand. At first, Boss Zhao didn’t care. After that, the other party has been doing promotions, discounts and other activities, and even free things as prizes.

According to the new contract, the final payment is based on the sales volume, which makes their payment less and slower, and even less than the cost. It also makes Boss Zhao's business more and more difficult, and the factory is getting more and more expensive. It's getting harder.

"This is a third-party report. According to this report, the plaintiff's 'Hongchang Kitchen Products' is already a well-known domestic brand, and its brand value has increased by 30.00% compared to before[-]. This shows that the plaintiff is also the beneficiary. It is a win-win for both parties, so our contract does not have any overlord clauses, nor has there been any fraud. The plaintiff is now dissatisfied with the existing contract with my client because of the brand rise, and they want to get more benefits. This is Those who do not keep their promises will show no integrity!"

The defendant's lawyer took out another investigation report, which was made by a special investigation company commissioned by them and notarized by the notary office, which was authentic and reliable.

This report shows that the kitchen utensils produced by Boss Zhao have indeed improved a lot of brand image and value in more than a year, and he has indeed benefited from it. The signature proves that he is aware of and agrees to the promotion, and there is a report on brand promotion, which is enough to show that he has gained and benefited.

As soon as these two pieces of evidence were presented, the judge and jurors all looked at Lawyer Hu and Liu Xiaotian.

Lawyer Hu stood up, moistened his throat, and continued: "My client has never denied that the brand value has been improved, but the brand value is not directly related to the Overlord Clause, and every time my client signs It is to prove that there is an overlord clause in this contract. If he does not sign, it means that he does not agree with the promotion, and the defendant can justly refuse to pay, but it is also my client's compromise time and time again that makes them appetite. I have already started to think about annexing my client's company, if my client's company goes bankrupt and falls into their hands, it means that these enhanced brand values ​​will become theirs!"

"I object!"

The defendant's lawyer stood up again: "Mr. Judge, the plaintiff's attorney's conjectured and instructive speech is an insult to my client. They are slandering and slandering my client. They have no Evidence that my client ever wanted to annex their company!"

"Plaintiff's attorney, please pay special attention to your wording!"

The judge issued a warning to Lawyer Hu again, Lawyer Hu glanced at Liu Xiaotian, Liu Xiaotian nodded slightly, and stood up.

"Mr. Judge, jurors, we are not slandering or slandering them. This is indeed the case. I urge you to submit a video evidence, and Mr. Judge and all jurors will know after seeing it!"

Liu Xiaotian took out a small computer with its own projection equipment, and directly projected a video, in which Boss Zhao and the manager of the defendant company sitting in the dock appeared.

Although Boss Zhao is a real person, he is not particularly stupid. When he took his secretary to negotiate last time, he secretly installed a secret recording device to record all their conversations, which also became an important piece of evidence.

The arrogant appearance of the defendant manager and what he said were all shown on the video, and the defendant lawyer looked at their client in surprise. He said such things, and the other party had such evidence in their hands. Know.

Although this evidence cannot directly prove that the contract contains a bullying clause and cannot directly void the contract, it at least makes it clear that the defendant has an ulterior motive. What the plaintiff said just now is not a speculation, but a fact.

"This is not true, they forged it, they must have forged it on purpose!"

The defendant's manager seemed a little flustered, obviously all this was beyond his expectation, he hurriedly and loudly distinguished, the defendant's lawyer shook his head again and sighed slightly.

Such evidence will not be forged, because it is not direct evidence to prove that the contract is invalid, not to mention that forged evidence violates the criminal law, and they will all be sentenced. Even if the plaintiff forged the video, the other party's lawyer will make a judgment , Since they dared to take it out, it has been proved that this is true.

"Is it a forgery? We have our own conclusions. Defendant, have you said these words?"

The judge also shook his head slightly, and asked the manager in the dock.

"No, I never said that!" The defendant hurriedly shook his head, and a smile appeared on the corner of Lawyer Hu's mouth.

He actually denied it, and things were already developing in their favor. As long as this evidence proves that it is not a forgery, but a fact, it is tantamount to saying that the defendant lied. It is difficult for them to be accepted afterward, including jurors and judges. Subjectively, they will be inclined to them.

This is also equivalent to saying that they have already won half of the lawsuit. Next, they only need to prove that the other party’s purpose was not pure in the first place. They set up contract traps and deliberately lured their clients into being fooled. Contract fraud and contract invalidation can claim compensation.

"Quiet!"

The judge yelled loudly, Liu Xiaotian had already submitted the evidence, the court has a special appraisal agency to verify this video, and then they continued to refute the contract.

Both parties cited many examples, and the defendant's lawyer claimed that Boss Zhao knew everything, that there was no fraud, that the contract was signed in a bright and open manner, and that there was no threat, to deny the evidence presented by lawyer Hu and the others.

Lawyer Hu has also made full preparations. She understands that it is impossible to overthrow them based on the contract law alone. With the help of the previous video evidence, she has provided a lot of evidence, including the production of Boss Zhao's factory. Their production is extremely standardized. The workers are also very good. They have always fulfilled the contract with Yida Sales Company. Most of the top grades were sold by Yida Company at such a low price that other companies gradually stopped taking goods from them, causing the immediate difficult situation.

The whole morning was spent in the verbal battle, Liu Xiaotian performed very well, he would always stand up when Lawyer Hu was tired, and he not only gave examples of facts, but also proved the 'Enterprise Law', 'Civil Procedure Law' Many other laws and regulations that are beneficial to them have made the opposing lawyers a little overwhelmed.

The trial ended in the morning, and another day will be held to continue the trial. However, judging from their performance in the morning, they have already gained the upper hand, while the other party is in a hurry, and it is very difficult to respond.

"Lawyer Hu, Lawyer Liu, thank you very much!"

At the gate of the court, Boss Zhao excitedly held the hands of the two, expressing gratitude unceasingly.

The case is not over yet, but at least it has made a good start. The two lawyers have indeed paid a lot and found out a lot of things that he had never thought of before. These are of great use to him.

For example, in the "Enterprise Law" that Liu Xiaotian mentioned in the morning, there are two provisions on the protection of small and medium-sized enterprises. Enterprises must maintain an equal position in the relationship between supply and demand. Enterprises can raise their own objections to the oppressive party. This is legally protected existence.

This time it is a contract lawsuit, but the other party is oppressive to them, and the judge will consider this carefully.

"Xiaotian, very good!"

On the car back, Lawyer Hu praised Liu Xiaotian, Liu Xiaotian was more prepared than she thought, and they were all extremely useful things.

"I would also like to thank Lawyer Hu for your help. I have learned a lot during this period of time!"

Liu Xiaotian shook his head with a smile. His modest words made Lawyer Hu appreciate him even more. She found more and more that the new trainee lawyer recruited by the company is very good, he is a talented person, and he is good-looking and has temperament. This time the company can recruit such a person It is also a blessing for the company.

For a young man with Liu Xiaotian's temperament and good looks, any woman will have other ideas, and Lawyer Hu is no exception, but Lawyer Hu knows herself very well. She is three years older than Liu Xiaotian, and she is already engaged. There is no possibility at all, so she just admires Liu Xiaotian purely.

Back at the company, Lawyer Hu once again affirmed Liu Xiaotian's performance, and said that when the lawsuit is won, he will definitely be rewarded with a generous bonus.

The claim in this lawsuit has reached more than 8000 million. The current price has inflated a lot compared to before, and after several currency reforms, the current figure is more than 8000 million, which is roughly equivalent to more than 800 million in Liu Yiyang's era, which is not a small sum. If such a case is won, the firm can receive a considerable amount of agency fees.

Since Lawyer Hu has already said it out, when the lawsuit is won, the bonus will certainly not be less for Liu Xiaotian, which makes the rest of the company very envious.

There is only one person who really does not envy him, and that is Zhou Qiang. This guy is still thinking about Chen Bing. He entangles Liu Xiaotian as soon as he comes back. He didn't come this morning after asking for leave, but went to Chen Bing Hospital. Unfortunately, he couldn't see him there. When I went to Chen Bing, I didn't get any response.

"Xiaotian, congratulations!"

As soon as Liu Xiaotian sat down, Zhou Qiang approached him, first he hugged his fists with a smile and congratulated him.

"Thank you!"

"Xiaotian, what's the matter tonight, can you do me a favor?"

Seeing Liu Xiaotian started to work on his own, Zhou Qiang said something again, Liu Xiaotian raised his head and glanced at him indifferently, then shook his head and said: "I have something to do at night, don't think about me going to help you with my sister, I can't make an appointment either. , if you want to make a date, you can go by yourself!"

Zhou Qiang went to do the killing in the morning, and Chen Bing had already called him at noon, and now Zhou Qiang understood the other party's intentions as soon as he opened his mouth, how could he agree to such a thing.

They experience the life of mortals, not because he helps mortals to chase his sister, and he also knows that his sister will never fall in love with such a mortal, let alone do such useless work.

"Don't, you know that I don't know her well, so I don't have to rely on you, Xiaotian, just show kindness and help my brother with this favor, and my brother will definitely thank you in the future!"

Zhou Qiang hurriedly edited again, then beat his back and squeezed his legs again, nodded and bowed beside Liu Xiaotian.

"Mr. Liu, are you free?"

Xiao Wang came over in time. A woman in her thirties came to the company and wanted to consult a lawyer. Xiao Wang happened to see Liu Xiaotian being entangled by Zhou Qiang, so he immediately came to help him out.

Generally speaking, when important guests come to the company, they are received by Lawyer Hu and another partner in person. Ordinary guests are received by another official lawyer. Paralegals and trainee lawyers rarely receive them, but there are special cases, which are obvious. It doesn't look like a special customer, but a very ordinary customer, and trainee lawyers can also receive them.

The client in front of me was like this. It was a bit of a philistine to do so. Unfortunately, this is a common problem in many law firms. They did not refuse to accept them, nor did they violate the principle. What's more, the client did not name which lawyer they were looking for. Trainee lawyers are also lawyers. Naturally, counseling is acceptable.

Liu Xiaotian quickly took the client to the reception room, Xiao Wang also helped to make tea, Zhou Qiang had no choice but to wait outside, waiting for Liu Xiaotian to come out.

"My name is Liu Xiaotian, and I'm a trainee lawyer here. May I have your surname?"

Today's Li Xiaotian, regardless of his behavior, is no different from ordinary people, and he can't see any problems at all. He hides very well in the ordinary world.

Liu Yiyang was also very relieved, he didn't expect his son to let go of everything and live with a mortal with the lowest status, which was also a surprise to him, and even more a surprise.

Liu Yiyang's spiritual consciousness has expanded many times, and it is still expanding, but now he is no longer paying attention to other things under the spiritual consciousness, all his attention is on Liu Xiaotian, Ouyang Xuan and the others, looking at his wife, Children live in the secular world.

Even if they can't be together now, at least it's good to be able to watch them, which is also a kind of happiness.

"You, are you an intern?"

When the woman heard Liu Xiaotian's introduction, she was obviously suspicious. Liu Xiaotian nodded slightly, and said slowly: "Don't worry, elder sister, although I am an intern, I am also a lawyer. If I can't solve your problem, I will naturally take these Report the problem, if you have any questions or difficulties, just tell me!"

After hearing Liu Xiaotian's words, the woman nodded slightly, and said softly: "I, my name is Liu Fei, my husband beat me, and I want to sue for divorce!"

"Domestic violence, divorce?"

Liu Xiaotian immediately understood the meaning of the woman in front of him. In fact, Liu Xiaotian guessed this aspect from the moment she came in. He has not been in the company for a long time, but he has seen a few people who came to inquire about divorce lawsuits. Only high but not low.

However, the problem of domestic violence is a bit serious. The country has revised the laws and regulations several times. The restrictions on domestic violence are becoming more and more strict. Those who have domestic violence are not only at an absolute disadvantage in divorce lawsuits, but also may violate the criminal law. sentencing.

Seeing that Liu Xiaotian didn't speak, the woman slowly lifted the clothes on her arms, immediately revealing her bruised and purple skin underneath.

This woman was dressed very ordinary, she looked a bit like someone from a small city, but the injuries on her body were real and very serious, Liu Xiaotian immediately narrowed his eyes, stood up and walked to the woman's side.

The bruises and purple marks, coupled with the woman's lovely and pitiful appearance, easily aroused sympathy, Liu Xiaotian already had anger in his heart, this was the first time he was angry after he integrated into the mortal world, and it was also the first time he saw a beaten woman.

Ordinary people are not gods, their bodies are very fragile, and their injuries often last for many days. The scars on this woman's body are very similar to whip marks. It is hard to imagine anyone who is so cruel to a weak woman. .

"Ms. Liu, don't worry, your husband's domestic violence will not end well. Our law firm will seek justice for you. Are there any other injuries on your body?"

Liu Xiaotian said seriously, Liu Fei was stunned for a moment, then nodded, but lowered his head again, as if there was something hard to say.

Liu Xiaotian looked at her, and soon became stunned. He asked Liu Fei to wait for him here, and quickly invited Lawyer Hu over. At first, Lawyer Hu was unwilling to take such a case. She had more than Boss Zhao on hand. The case, and others, were busy, and this sort of divorce case could be left to someone else.

But after Liu Xiaotian said that the woman was beaten badly, she rushed over immediately, all women are sympathetic, and she is no exception, after she checked Liu Fei's injuries alone, her eyes were red when she came out, She also asked Liu Xiaotian to take her to a forensic examination immediately, and continued to promise that he would help her sue the damned man to death, send him to prison and sentence him.

Once such domestic violence is identified by the forensic doctor, the husband's fate can be imagined. In addition to the sentence, the assets of the two will not be equally divided. The woman will get most of it, and maybe even all of it.

This is also Lawyer Hu's guarantee to her. Lawyers seldom say things so deadly. At this time, Lawyer Hu was also infected by the woman's injury, and he was a little emotional. Liu Xiaotian also sympathized with Liu Fei, but fortunately he was still in a state of reason. No word of promise was said.
