Chicago 1990

With Bill McKennick at the dinner table, lawyers are not easy to talk about the details of the Barn case. Will Gardner actively talks to Bill McKenney. The atmosphere is harmonious and may want to solicit business for the law firm.

"I will vote as long as you reach a consensus with Yeremov and my lawyer."

Until Bill McKennick's departure, Song Ya didn't know what his purpose was besides helping Murdoch meet each other. He probably wanted to get a certain letter from him? In short, since it is speculated from the Apocalypse that except for the Titanic project, at least it will not fail, then there is no need to over-disguise your attitude, "The key is to divide the accounts. I think I am qualified to be Hollywood's own person?"

I have produced the first and second dances of my life, cat and mouse games and some small productions. Next year, there will be blade warriors, football stunners, and Apu Zhengchuan will start paintings. A+ film studios have been cooperating with Universal Pictures and Colombia. In the film industry, Disney's Hollywood film industry, and DreamWorks, he absolutely does not allow himself to be slaughtered by Fox in this situation, and even takes the opportunity to get more benefits from the other party.

Of course, good control is also very important. After all, Fox has a demanding Paramount, and it is not appropriate to ask too much.

"no problem."

Bill McKennick felt relieved, "I've been in Chicago these days."

"Okay, Yeremov will be there at night."

To spend 60 million knives in a short period of time, it is still safe to put the negotiation around and stare at it personally. Anyway, now Fox Pictures is easy to talk.

In addition, Goodman and Hamlin were busy with various cases involving themselves and their family, and the acquisition of Litman Publishing House did not have time to travel to Los Angeles, so Yeremov could only bring people over.

Sloan has also confirmed with Murdoch and will meet at a charity auction in New York next weekend.

"That's fine."

Bill McKennick also knows why so many lawyers gather in Highland Park. Before leaving, he asked Jordan's specific address in Highland Park. He should want to visit him personally.

The air slam dunk starring Jordan opened last month, and the cost of 80 million is estimated to be more than 200 million at the global box office. He also signed a contract with the Bulls of $30.14 million. In one year, the NBA opened a special case to retain him, not counting. Into the salary cap, and now what is the annual salary cap of a team in the NBA? Only more than 20 million dollars!

"By the way, I have to help Jordan join the Madoff Fund!"

Had it not been for Bill McKennick's mention, Song Ya had almost forgotten the plastic brother who had reached a new height in his career.

"Jordan can join. The ceremony...it depends on when everyone has time to get together. Many people leave Chicago for vacation at the end of the year."

He called the Chicago treasurer who was in charge of organizing the ceremony, and the other party said that Jordan had been approved by internal review, "You make an appointment with Jordan, and I will contact the others."

"OK."

Song Ya immediately called Jordan. The guy didn't respond to his support last time, and the relationship weakened.

"The hearing will be in the South City Federal Court, and the first hearing will be next month, which is January next year."

Finally, I can discuss the Barn case with the lawyers. The dream lawyers will count their working hours when they come to stay in their own home. It is justified to send them away as soon as possible.

"So fast?" Song Ya asked.

"This court date has no practical significance."

Will Gardner, who is responsible for explaining the trial procedures, explained: "Now the case is in the pre-trial stage. In a few days, the judge will convene a pre-trial meeting between us and the prosecutor to exclude certain evidence proposed by the prosecution and defense, or ask the other party to show Evidence and other aspects of the application and disputes between the two sides will be ruled, so as long as we and the prosecutor cannot dispute the evidence in a short time and the judge cannot determine it in a short time, the hearing date will be continuously postponed until an agreement is reached."

"We will question the prosecution's massive amount of evidence that violates procedural justice." Diane Lockhard added.

Song Ya nodded, "I understand."

For example, in the Simpson case, the Los Angeles police detective collecting evidence at the crime scene alone was an obvious violation of procedural justice, but in reality, law enforcement agencies, especially front-line law enforcement officers, did not strictly follow procedures when collecting evidence. The complicated legal system in the United States and the overlapping law enforcement powers of various power departments make it too time-consuming and laborious to follow the procedures step by step, the budget is limited, the number of personnel is limited, and the quality of front-line police officers is insufficient.

I don't want to, I can't.

This kind of procedural hazard will not be a problem when facing the poor. Dad Cassidy beats the street boy violently and then takes him back to the police station to record his confession. Then he will be sentenced by casually using the bag as physical evidence. However, in the face of wealthy and wealthy lawyers, this kind of behavior is very loopholes, asking for trouble.

The special prosecutor in the Barn case has great powers, but the three-person team cannot do all the work. It also needs to rely on a large amount of evidence held by various local law enforcement agencies to support the prosecution. State police, municipal police, import and export management departments... …The Dream Lawyers Group will not let go of every place where they can make a fuss. They have long sent their lawyers, investigators, etc. to collect evidence that violates procedural justice.

The law enforcement agencies think that every procedure is perfect and it is very expensive. They have a fixed annual budget, and it may not be possible to fight against the rich. For example, in the MJ case, Los Angeles and Santa Barbara counties are in order to maintain the two locals. The grand jury burned millions of public funds, and the congressmen and voters stopped doing it. In the end, they had to hurriedly announced that they would not be prosecuted and dissolved.

Song Ya knows that he has a much greater advantage than MJ and Simpson. The relationship between the light and the local law enforcement agencies is incomparable to the two black lights. The municipalities in Illinois, Cook County and Chicago are secretly defending themselves. The attitude of the special prosecutor is very perfunctory, and he will not cooperate if he does not forcefully use federal power to promote it.

That's why the special prosecutor recruited Childs, who had served as the state prosecutor of Cook County. This is a clever move, otherwise he will be more difficult.

"At the pre-trial meeting, we still know what hole cards the special prosecutor has in his hands." Cochran said.

In many legal dramas, there are often lawyers and prosecutors in court inviting new witnesses or presenting new evidence. This is also not realistic. All witnesses and evidence have been identified in advance at the pretrial conference. That is to say, when it really enters the stage of court debate, the prosecutor and the defender know each other's bottom cards.

It’s not that there is no such situation, but if one party presents new evidence in court, the judge will ask for a reconfirmation even if he does not refuse. Either adjourn the court or call the prosecution and defense together to discuss and go through the procedure again. The process will become very boring and lose the dramatic effect.

"When will the pre-trial meeting be held?" Song Ya asked, "Do I need to attend?"

"In the middle of the month, you don't need to be present." Goodman replied.

"OK."

Everyone was discussing very seriously, and suddenly there was a loud noise outside, mixed with the loud voices of Connie and Aunt Susie, "Hehe, Tony should be fine." Song Ya sounded that they seemed to be in high spirits, so they smiled. Get up.

"It's okay, it's okay...Everyone is okay!"

The mood was not only high, but also singing and dancing. Tony and Connie hummed and twisted their big **** and walked in. Aunt Susie, who was holding little Freddy, followed behind and yelled at her daughter: "I will make trouble next time. Look, I won’t kill you bitch! Instigate my brother to beat someone and grab a car? One day everyone will be killed by you!"

But the joy on her face betrayed her, UU reading www.uukanshu. com is just cursing and cursing, and it is still very happy that my children can be fine.

At the same time, Tony's friends and attendants who appeared in court simply formed a circle at the door, clapped their hands to the beat, and performed an African primitive dance.

"Know it, know it, annoying!? Isn't this done?"

Connie retorted unconvinced: "Besides, I gave the car. I just asked Tony to drive it back."

"Hey!"

Tony hugged and fisted the silencer, and then hugged Song Ya again.

"What is the result?" Song Ya asked.

"My probation, community service, and the others too, only one person was sentenced to nine months." Tony replied.

"Who?"

Tony reported his attendant's name, and he should have committed the crime voluntarily.

"That kid took the main responsibility."

Hamlin, who represented the case, helped explain the specific process. Tony's attendant was charged with assault and car robbery, so the others could get probation.

"I will take care of him when he comes out." Tony said.

"It was decided by the draw?" Song Ya asked him.

"Yeah." Tony lowered his head a little embarrassedly, probably also remembering how he used to draw lots to help Lori commit crimes.

"Okay, think about it before doing something next time."

Song Ya glanced at his friends and attendants outside. He had probably seen a lot of this kind of thing, and he didn't show any displeasure. They talked about how to welcome the good brother out of prison, and what celebrations to prepare.

The Highland Park suddenly became lively and extraordinary, and the Dream Lawyers group felt that they had almost talked, so they left one after another.
