Chapter 406: Can Gu Chen win the parrot case?
In this parrot case, the first trial is over and the evidence is conclusive.
Although the client had already pleaded guilty, the client's parents did not agree and persuaded the client to appeal to the second instance.
The more Xue Qingqing looked at this case, the more difficult it became to win.
This lawsuit is actually very simple and not complicated, but the difficulty lies in how to defend it.
What is certain is that Li Peng did commit a crime.
The facts of the crime are all there, and the conditions for Li Peng's defense to reduce his sentence are not established.
In other words, there is no defense angle in this case.
Even if the boss takes action, it is almost impossible to successfully defend this lawsuit.
The court sentenced Li Peng to five years. In fact, this punishment was not very serious.
Xue Qingqing carefully read the verdict of the first instance.
After learning more about it, I discovered that three of the ten parrots purchased and raised by Li Peng were Class II protected animals, and the remaining seven parrots were also nationally protected animals and were all endangered species.
If raising one or two second-level protected animals does not cause serious consequences, the sentence will not be so serious.
But Li Peng raised ten parrots.
If the number is ten, five years in prison is already the lightest punishment.
In the second trial, the court may change the sentence to ten years in prison, which is also possible.
There is indeed a lot of money in this case, but it is difficult to win this lawsuit.
Xue Qingqing said with some worry: "Boss, this case is not complicated, but it is very difficult to litigate and it is difficult to defend successfully. I don't even know how to defend this kind of case."
Gu Chen said: "It's okay. I've already seen this case. It's very simple to go to the defense. The court will start tomorrow. I'll take this case."
Xue Qingqing: "???"
Gu Chen took out a contract.
He had learned about this case in the morning and understood all the causes and consequences.
The contract is also signed.
Li Peng's parents directly offered Gu Chen 500,000 yuan to fight the lawsuit.
Seeing that there was room for defense in this case, Gu Chen took over the case.
If the lawsuit was too simple, there would be no need for Gu Chen to defend it.
Soon, netizens knew that Gu Chen had taken over this case again.
Because Li Peng keeps parrots online and posts videos, many fans know about it.
Many netizens also know that Li Peng was sent to prison for raising parrots.
Unexpectedly, Gu Chen would now help Li Peng defend himself.
[Hey guys, there’s a new lawsuit! Does Li Peng know? The parrot was sent in before, but now Lawyer Gu wants to defend Li Peng. 】
[Li Peng raised ten national second-level protected animals. It is a crime to buy and raise them. Even if Li Peng raised the parrots to be white and fat, it is still a crime. Hasn't he been sentenced to five years? 】
[The five-year sentence seems to be a lighter punishment. It seems that Li Peng’s parents disagreed and then persuaded Li Peng to appeal. Now Li Peng has appealed. The defense lawyer is Gu Chen, but there is no room for defense in this case. 】
[Li Peng has already pleaded guilty. How to defend this lawsuit? The second trial may be more serious. 】
[But this is Lawyer Gu. When has Lawyer Gu ever lost a lawsuit? As long as Lawyer Gu goes up to defend him, he will definitely succeed in his defense. Don't worry, these are outlaws! 】
[What does this have to do with outlaws? I’m talking about the law. I know that Lawyer Gu is very good at litigating cases. The problem is that this case cannot be innocent. No matter how awesome Gu Chen is, he can’t defend Li Peng. Sin, what are you thinking about? 】
[Haha, this is because you don’t understand the lawless maniacs. Gu Chen defended Li Long and won the last lawsuit, but Li Long killed three people. 】
[I know about this case. You can’t say that Li Peng is also mentally ill, right? 】
Some netizens still support Gu Chen and feel that as long as Gu Chen takes action, any lawsuit can be won.
Now Li Peng will definitely have his sentence commuted, and maybe acquittal is also possible.
But there are still some netizens who don’t agree.
They feel that litigation should still be conducted in accordance with the law.
There is no room for reduced sentences in this lawsuit.
The evidence of Li Peng's crime is conclusive, and it is impossible for him to be mentally ill. It is absolutely impossible for him to be innocent.
What's more, Li Peng didn't surrender, but was arrested after being reported. So how to defend this lawsuit?
Moreover, Gu Chen had just taken over this lawsuit, but the court would be held tomorrow.
Is one day enough?
. . . . .
Gu Chen saw all the files of the first trial.
The presiding judge of the first instance: Wang Ling.
Judges of the first instance: Fang Min, Zhang Kaixin.
Prosecutor in the first instance: Gao Qiang.
After Gu Chen understood all the files of the first trial, he had a clear idea of the case.
It can still be used during the court session tomorrow.
In this case, Gu Chen also opened the system and tried it.
There is no evidence in the system interface.
In other words, this case is indeed a normal lawsuit.
Li Peng committed a crime, and the evidence was conclusive. He purchased and raised national second-level protected animals. He was now sentenced after being reported.
There is no problem with the process of this case, and Li Peng has also pleaded guilty.
The case should have ended here, but Li Peng's parents were dissatisfied and felt that a five-year sentence was too harsh, so they invited Gu Chen to fight the lawsuit.
Gu Chen finished understanding all the circumstances of the lawsuit and used the system to take a look. . .
The system indeed found nothing.
Then this case can only be handled by Gu Chen himself.
After Gu Chen made all preparations, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.
Xue Qingqing came in with a glass of water and said: "Boss, drink some water. The boss is too tired from work. He just took over the case this morning and the court will be held tomorrow. It only takes one day to prepare a lawsuit." , this is too difficult.”
Gu Chen took the water, took a sip, and said, "It's okay, I'm going to rest. I've already prepared this case."
Xue Qingqing originally thought that Gu Chen's case would take at least a day and a night to prepare.
Xue Qingqing had already planned to stay with Gu Chen all night.
As a result, Gu Chen said at eight o'clock in the evening that the preparations for the lawsuit were completed.
But when Gu Chen got all the files on this case, it was already afternoon.
Gu Chen also had dinner.
Strictly speaking, Gu Chen didn't work very long.
Learn about the case and sign the contract in the morning.
Eat at noon and take a lunch break.
Get all the dossier information in the afternoon and then study it.
Then it’s time to have dinner.
Now Gu Chen said everything is ready?
this. . . Xue Qingqing knew that the boss was powerful, but he didn't expect that the boss was so powerful.
The boss of this lawsuit took several hours to prepare from beginning to end.
Is this enough?
Xue Qingqing saw that Gu Chen was confident, but also a little confused.
This case is very difficult to defend.
Did the boss get everything ready so quickly?
Xue Qingqing said: "Boss, is there anything else you need my help with? I can help."
Gu Chen shook his head and said: "Go home and rest. Let's fight this lawsuit tomorrow. It is impossible to lose this lawsuit."
Xue Qingqing: "???"
Xue Qingqing said: "Does the boss have the confidence to reduce Li Peng's sentence? But having said that, giving Li Peng a five-year sentence is indeed too harsh. Li Peng does not know that this is a protected animal, and he also raises protected animals very well. These parrots They are all fat and in vain, so they won’t be sentenced to five years in prison.”
Gu Chen said: "Reduced sentence?"
Gu Chen smiled.
"We'll know tomorrow." Gu Chen said.
Xue Qingqing: "???"
Xue Qingqing still doesn't know how the boss will defend this lawsuit.
She is also a lawyer and has strong litigation skills.
But if Xue Qingqing was asked to defend the case by herself, she really didn't know how to speak.
Whatever Xue Qingqing could think of, the first-instance lawyer probably also thought of it
In the end, the court sentenced him to five years in prison, which was fine.
Can this case really be won?
Seeing Gu Chen's confident look, Xue Qingqing couldn't help but sigh.
She didn't doubt Gu Chen's ability. .
She was doubting herself.
She knew that if the boss took action, the lawsuit would definitely be won.
But if she was left to do it by herself, she couldn't think of any effective way to help defend herself.
If she were to take over this lawsuit, Xue Qingqing felt that she would probably lose the case.
"Let's see how the boss fights this lawsuit tomorrow." Xue Qingqing said.
Xue Qingqing received a call from Xia Ranran.
Xia Ranran said: "Qingqing, Gu Chen has recently taken on another lawsuit. I understand everything about this lawsuit. Is Gu Chen confident?"
Xue Qingqing said: "I think the boss is very confident."
Xia Ranran was a little confused, "It shouldn't be. How to defend this case? I don't know how to defend it. Is Gu Chen really sure that he can win?"
Xue Qingqing hummed.
Xia Ranran said: "No, every time Gu Chen files a lawsuit, it involves my blind spot of knowledge. He is so good at fighting lawsuits. I still want to come to the scene this time to see how he fights this lawsuit." .”
Xue Qingqing nodded, "Okay, come on, come on, Sister Ran Ran, you can still come to our law firm. Our law firm is short of talents."
Xia Ranran: "????"
Xia Ranran said: "If Gu Chen can really defend Li Peng and prove his innocence, then I will come directly to your law firm, no salary required."
Xue Qingqing stuck out her tongue and said, "Sister Ran Ran, forget it if you don't want to come. How can you possibly defend Li Peng as innocent in this lawsuit? Not even gods can do it."
Xia Ranran laughed, "Yes, that's why I wanted to see how Gu Chen would fight this lawsuit."
Gao Yong took Xia Ranran's phone and said, "If Gu Chen can still plead not guilty in this lawsuit, he will be a god. Don't say so much. As long as Gu Chen can commute Li Peng's sentence, I will go directly to your law firm! I have already agreed with the old man to come to Gu Chen’s law firm to study more, but I will only stay here for three years, and I will return to Fangda Law Firm after three years.”
Xue Qingqing smiled sweetly, "Okay, come on, everyone, but the hope of successfully defending this lawsuit is really slim. You are all lawyers, and you all know how difficult it is to fight a lawsuit. Where can any lawyer really achieve a 100% winning rate in a lawsuit?" Ah? This is absolutely impossible. The boss can win so many lawsuits, but he will always lose. Can he still not lose in lawsuits in his life? "
Gao Yong said: "It's not important. I'll see how Gu Chen fights the lawsuit tomorrow. I'm here to learn anyway. Gu Chen is so good at fighting the lawsuit. Maybe he can really defend Li Peng and exonerate him. Hahaha, although this is impossible. ”
Xue Qingqing snorted and said, "I think you just don't want to come to our law firm."
Gao Yong smiled and said: "Haha, but we really want to study with Gu Chen. Let's see you tomorrow."
Du Jinguang was very angry.
He had planned before that after Gu Chen lost the lawsuit, he would directly find the navy to blackmail Gu Chen.
As a result, Gu Chen actually won the lawsuit!
Li Long was obviously sentenced to death, but Gu Chen directly defended him and acquitted him.
Who would have thought of this?
Not only did the navy troops he found not come in handy, but Gu Chen's popularity grew even higher. Who could withstand this?
Du Jinguang glanced at the news and said, "What? Gu Chen is going to litigate again? This time the lawsuit is about Li Peng's parrot case? Then isn't Gu Chen dead?"
"Can't we say that Li Peng is mentally ill this time? How can you successfully defend this? Ten parrots! They are all national second-level protected animals. It is illegal to buy and raise ten parrots, and the minimum requirement is five years. , it may be sentenced to ten years. How can it be possible to reduce Li Peng’s sentence? Li Peng did not surrender.”
Du Jinguang's eyes lit up when he saw this case.
Compared with the previous case, it can be said that Li Long is mentally ill.
After all, it is indeed not illegal to kill someone while mentally ill, and this is also stipulated in the law.
Du Jinguang didn't expect that Gu Chen could find such a way to defend himself.
But this case is completely different.
You can’t say that Li Peng bought and raised parrots because he was mentally ill, right?
So isn't Gu Chen definitely going to lose the lawsuit this time?
Du Jinguang was a little excited.
Du Jinguang said: "It's the same this time! As long as Gu Chen loses the lawsuit, then go and smear Gu Chen! I gave Gu Chen a 100% winning rate and your law firm has grown so fast. Now you must blackmail them. They If it continues to develop, all the traffic from our law firm will go to their law firm.”
These are the red circle law firms across the country. . .
Now Gu Chen's law firm is getting bigger and bigger. After all, Xue Qingqing invested 100 million alone.
100 million is used to develop the law firm. . .
This law firm has also developed quite rapidly.
In addition, law firms have no shortage of talents, let alone cases.
With Gu Chen's golden name, Gu Chen's law firm will always have endless lawsuits.
Unless Gu Chen's reputation is suppressed, Gu Chen's law firm will not develop so fast.
His men immediately went to do it.
Du Jinguang decided that this time he would go to the court gallery in person.
He wanted to witness Gu Chen's failure in this lawsuit!
This lawsuit is very simple.
But the simpler the lawsuit, the more difficult it is to defend.
The evidence of Li Peng's crime was conclusive, and the sentence in the first instance was originally based on the minimum standard.
As a result, he was dissatisfied with the verdict and had to appeal.
How can you possibly get a reduced sentence if you appeal to the second instance?
Purchasing and raising ten national second-level protected animals can result in a maximum sentence of ten years or even life imprisonment!
