Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer

Chapter 133 Still not signing, the reason why I hate the hearing

2 p.m.

Municipal Court, small court.

Zhang Wei, the woman and the child sat in the prosecution seat, while the woman's ex-husband and his lawyer sat in the defense seat.

"The purpose of this court's hearing today is to listen to the opinions of both parties and decide whether to sign a restraining order. Now, please express your opinion..."

The judge sat on the trial seat, looked at both sides, and turned to Zhang Wei's side.

Zhang Wei frowned, looking at the judge's right hand.

"There are ring marks, and the marks look quite new. The judge just got divorced, right?"

Zhang Wei is a person who is good at observing. He has already examined the woman's ex-husband and the opponent's lawyer.

In general, the woman's ex-husband is very likely to have violent tendencies, but he can see it, but others may not.

As for the opponent's lawyer, it should be someone from a small law firm with limited skills.

But this time it was not a big case at all, and there were no requirements for the level of lawyers, and lawyers from small law firms were enough.

Finally, Zhang Wei observed the judge.

The hearing was held, but when he saw the ring mark on the judge's hand, he knew that it would not be an easy task to sign a restraining order today.

"Your Excellency, my client, Ms. Yang Huihui, has received threatening phone calls from her ex-husband Mr. Cao Mu many times. She can no longer take care of herself in her daily life. She has to bear enormous psychological pressure every day. I implore the judge to approve and sign a restraining order against Mr. Cao. "

"Your Honor, I would like to refute that Mr. Cao's call to his ex-wife, Ms. Yang, is just a routine question about her and their children's daily life. There is nothing wrong with it."

The defense lawyer really refuted it, and Zhang Wei was not surprised by what he said.

It is a pity that this time is a hearing, not a trial site, so there is no way to refute it with evidence.

However, being unable to provide evidence does not mean that Zhang Wei cannot refute.

"Routine inquiry, so you don't have to say words like 'kill', 'I'm going to kill you', 'I want you to look good', right?"

"This is hearsay evidence, and the court cannot accept it!"

"This is not the trial site, your objection is invalid, defense lawyer!"

Zhang Wei's words also attracted rebuttals from the other party, but Zhang Wei refused to give in and rebutted back.

"You two stop, come up to me!" The judge interrupted quickly, and then motioned for the two to step forward.

Zhang Wei and the opposing lawyer walked up to the judge at the same time.

"Do you know how many couples in Dongfangdu get divorced every day? I can tell you that among all the divorced couples, one of them will say something radical. Do you think I will sign a restraining order for every divorced couple in Dongfangdu? "

"Your Honor, I don't think it's necessary. My client just wants to care about his son's situation, so he called Ms. Yang Huihui!"

Hearing that the judge expressed his preference for the man, the opponent's lawyer naturally followed the trend and agreed.

"Your Honor, on behalf of our client, Ms. Yang Huihui, we strongly request the court to sign a restraining order!"

"Lawyer, I have heard your request, but I still have that problem. If I sign a restraining order for you, then all divorced couples in the Eastern Capital will come to me. Do you know how much work this is? How much trouble will you cause the city court if you come back here, and do you know how much judicial resources will be wasted to enforce the restraining order?"

"Besides, Mr. Cao Mu didn't do anything extreme, so I don't think it's necessary to sign!"

The judge's opinion is already obvious, he will not sign this restraining order today.

"Now, you all go down..."

"Wait a minute, Your Excellency, I would like to ask the opposing lawyer a question, is that okay?"

Seeing that the judge wanted to drive the two of them down, Zhang Wei quickly interrupted.

The judge glared at Zhang Wei, but still looked at the male lawyer, and then nodded.

"Thank you, Your Excellency, I would like to ask the man's lawyer, do you know Mr. Cao Mu, are you familiar with him?"

"I have known him for more than a year, and I have helped his company's case before!"

"Then I would like to ask the man's lawyer, do you think Mr. Cao Mu is an impulsive and irritable person?"

The man's lawyer's eyes flickered, but he quickly replied: "It is not convenient for me to make any comments on Mr. Cao Mu's character!"

Zhang Wei narrowed his eyes, but could only shake his head helplessly.

"Your Honor, I have no questions."

"Okay, you all go down!"

After the judge sent the two to leave, he announced in court: "After communicating with the lawyers of both parties, this court has decided not to sign a restraining order against Mr. Cao Mu!"

After the results came out, Cao Mu smiled, but Yang Huihui looked disappointed.

She turned her head to look at Cao Mu, and saw that the latter was also looking this way, and his eyes became extremely cold.

Zhang Wei also saw the look in his eyes and knew that this man was going to make trouble.

"Ms. Yang, what does your husband do?"

"He's in sales, and the company sells food processing equipment, mainly coffee machines and blenders!"

"Is it for sale?"

Hearing this answer, Zhang Wei was not surprised.

"Does your husband have any hobbies?"

"He used to like hunting..."

"hunt?"

"He doesn't hunt now, but I still have the crossbow bolts he used to hunt in my house, and they hang on the wall of my house!"

"Does your husband still have the keys to your house?"

"Not really."

"Understood, then you should pay attention to safety, I can't help you!"

Zhang Wei is also a little helpless. He is not a divorce lawyer, and it is also difficult for the judge to sign the restraining order. This is the first time he feels powerless.

After saying goodbye to Yang Huihui, Zhang Wei frowned again.

"Cao Mu is not an easy person to get along with, and his personality is not good in my opinion. If you are doing sales outside, you must be under a lot of pressure. If he happens to be angry with customers outside and thinks about divorce, So……"

Zhang Wei quickly shook his head, dispelling the thoughts in his heart.

Because in the worst case, he didn't want to see it.

But for the judge to sign the restraining order, the man must make threatening actions, such as sending death threats, making death threatening phone calls, or even making threatening actions.

But once that time comes, it will be too late to sign the restraining order.

A man who is dazzled by anger can't guarantee that he won't act irrationally, and Yang Huihui is a weak woman, and her son is only ten years old.

It's time to get off work.

Zhang Wei returned to the law firm in annoyance, and reported the situation to Tie Ruyun.

"Restraining order, it's very difficult to issue, did the man make threatening calls?"

"Those calls didn't look like threatening calls to the judge."

"Then it's nothing to do, but this is also a public welfare assistance case, you don't need to worry too much. Besides, you are not their divorce lawyer..."

"I see, old man.'

Zhang Wei said that he could only get off work.

...

Thursday morning.

When Zhang Wei came to Jincheng Building, he saw a person who surprised him in the lobby on the first floor.

"Ms. Yang Huihui, why are you here?"

The person sitting in the corner of the lobby on the first floor was none other than yesterday's client, Yang Huihui.

"Lawyer Zhang, that ex-husband came to my house last night, he..."

"Don't worry, sit down and talk slowly..."

Yang Huihui was a little agitated, and immediately began to tell after seeing Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei, on the other hand, listened calmly and nodded from time to time.

"Come on, let me go to your house to see, is your son at school today?"

"He's at school, but on my ex-husband's side, he also knows my son's class, and the head teacher also knows him."

"There's nothing the head teacher can do. They won't take care of your family affairs. The head teacher can't stop the child's father from seeing his son."

Zhang Wei had no choice but to comfort Yang Huihui while sending a message to Tie Ruyun.

He didn't enter the law office to check in, but went directly to Yang Huihui's apartment with her.

The apartment Yang Huihui lives in is in the south of the city, at the junction of the Central Ring and the Outer Ring. The location is not too good, and she needs to transfer a bus halfway.

When he walked to the door, Zhang Wei discovered some clues.

"When your ex-husband came over last night, did he have anything on hand?"

"I didn't see it, I don't even know how he opened the door..."

"It should be a universal unlocking key. The locksmith may provide it. Since your ex-husband is a salesman, it is not surprising that he knows a lot of people from all walks of life!"

Zhang Wei went to the door and looked at the keyhole. There was no trace of vandalism, which showed that his guess might be right.

Cao Mu didn't have a key to the apartment, so he could only open the door with this method.

If there is no sign of damage to the door, then it is impossible to explain to the judge that the ex-husband broke the door violently.

"Come on, let's take a look inside your apartment!"

Zhang Wei asked Yang Huihui to take him into the apartment.

As soon as he entered the door, he found that it was a mess.

Chairs fell to the ground, sofa cushions were lifted, and kitchen utensils, pots and pans were scattered all over the floor.

"Has the kitchen knife been touched?"

Zhang Wei looked at the kitchen, and the knives were no longer in their original positions.

"Yes, last night, he stabbed..."

"What was stabbed, is there any wound?"

"He stabbed my 'diaphragm' with a knife..."

Yang Huihui said, looking at the drawer under the TV cabinet.

The drawer had been opened, and a fruit sharp knife had penetrated a rubber tool, piercing it through.

Zhang Wei took a look at the situation of the apartment and organized his language.

"Your ex-husband came to the apartment yesterday and stabbed your diaphragm through with a kitchen knife after a fit of rage?"

"Yes!" Yang Huihui nodded quickly.

"this……"

Looking at the intact Yang Huihui, Zhang Wei didn't know whether he was saying good luck or bad luck.

"Because of this incident, I was very scared. I happened to consult you, Lawyer Zhang, yesterday, so I decided to continue looking for you today. Although my son was also very scared, I still let him go to school. At least the school is safer... ..."

Hearing what Yang Huihui said, Zhang Wei thought about it.

"Ms. Yang, although I sympathize with you, the judge didn't see the wound. A pierced diaphragm alone cannot help him strengthen his determination to sign the restraining order!"

"Am I going to be so frightened?"

Hearing what Zhang Wei meant, Yang Huihui was not happy anymore.

God knows how scared she was yesterday. Her ex-husband could stab the diaphragm with a knife, and naturally he could stab her to death with a knife.

Zhang Wei naturally knew about this matter, and so did Yang Huihui, but the court...

"Okay, you find a plastic bag, let's go to the judge again and ask him to hold a second hearing!"

Zhang Wei decided to help Yang Huihui again.

After the two packed up, they went straight to the city court.

...

1:30 p.m.

The hearing was held again.

Those who are still familiar.

Yang Huihui and his attorney Zhang Wei, Cao Mu and his attorney to the judge.

The judge sat in court, and after serving for a long time, he finally spoke:

"I still don't agree to sign a restraining order!"

Hearing what the judge said, Yang Huihui lowered her head, and Zhang Wei was quite speechless.

"Don't worry, I'll try again!"

Zhang Wei quickly comforted him, and then stood up directly.

He asked in a rather puzzled tone, "Your Excellency, how can you disagree?"

"Cao Mu smashed my client's house, threatened her, and stabbed my client's diaphragm with a kitchen knife, not to mention his breaking into the apartment, which in itself constitutes the condition of illegal entry !"

The judge was very calm, and asked, "What did you say he stabbed through?"

Zhang Wei sighed and asked Yang Huihui to hand over the plastic bag containing the diaphragm.

After taking the diaphragm, he hurried forward and handed it to the judge.

"What is this, a contraceptive film? It looks like a rubber sleeve. My ex-wife seems to have a similar one?"

"This is a cervical cap, which is a different product from the diaphragm..."

Zhang Wei explained, and then pointed to the other side, "But that's not the point. The point should be Mr. Cao Mu's extreme behavior, right?"

"Your Honor, I have something to say!"

The man's lawyer finally couldn't bear it any longer, and quickly said, "First of all, I'm sorry for the behavior of my client, Mr. Cao!"

"Secondly, I want to declare that Mr. Cao was impulsive yesterday, and he promised to receive psychological counseling after returning home. As for his behavior of breaking into the apartment, it was because he forgot that he had divorced Yang Huihui, and he thought it was him. s home!"

"If someone can't open the lock at home, can he open it with a locksmith's tool?" Zhang Wei immediately retorted.

"No, my client said that the door is open, it must be that Ms. Yang forgot to close the door!"

"You are hearing evidence, or your client is lying!"

"Lawyer Zhang, we are hearing now, not a court trial. This is what you told me yesterday, and I will pay you back now!"

The man's lawyer responded with what Zhang Wei said yesterday.

This made Zhang Wei speechless.

Damn the hearing, there is no way to prove it!

After the man's lawyer finished ranting against Zhang Wei, he looked at the judge again: "Your Honor, Mr. Cao has already deeply blamed himself for yesterday's behavior, and he is still feeling guilty..."

"I deeply feel guilty, it's strange that he has a little bit of self-blame!"

Zhang Wei immediately interrupted, pointed at Cao Mu and said, "This guy, what he's thinking about now must not be self-blame. I suspect he's insane. He's very dangerous now!"

"Lawyer Zhang, do you know that you are responsible for saying these words?"

"Then if Cao Mu stabbed my client to death yesterday, would you be responsible for his actions?"

"You are guessing for no reason, my client..."

"If you can't guarantee something, don't talk too much..."

In court, Zhang Wei and Nanfang's lawyer quarreled, and the two were arguing with red faces.

"Enough!" Seeing that the two of them lost their composure, the judge immediately interrupted them with a drink.

When the two stopped, the judge looked at Zhang Wei: "Attorney Zhang, I have already felt your attitude, but I still cannot sign the restraining order."

"Your Excellency, Mr. Cao Mu's actions may pose a serious threat to the personal safety of my client, yet you still..."

"Lawyer Zhang, please be quiet!"

The judge interrupted Zhang Wei's statement again.

"I ask you, does your client wish to file a claim for financial destruction?"

"Is this matter meaningful?" Zhang Wei spread his hands, looking bored.

People are going to disappear, what's the point of your petition to destroy finances?

"Lawyer Zhang, I know what you are worried about, but I want to sign a restraining order. You must prove that Mr. Cao Mu is in imminent danger of physically harming your client..."

"Your Honor, do you mean that you will accept the request for a restraining order only if my client is brought into court in a body bag?"

Seeing that Zhang Wei couldn't explain it, the judge didn't have a clue.

"Mr. Cao Mu, let me ask you, will you hurt Ms. Yang Huihui?"

"No, I promise I won't hurt her!"

Cao Mu responded immediately, looking at the judge without any deviation.

"Lawyer Zhang, you also heard that Mr. Cao Mu made a guarantee, and he did not do any personal harm to Ms. Yang Huihui. I can't sign a restraining order just with a pierced rubber toy!"

Seeing that the judge's attitude had been decided, Zhang Wei clenched his fingers tightly, but he was powerless.

That's why he doesn't go to the divorce lawsuit and doesn't attend the hearing!

"Mr. Cao Mu, as for your illegal entry, you justified that it was also your home, but I want to remind you that it is not your home. If I catch you again, you will be in danger, understand? !"

Finally, the judge gave Cao Mu a warning.

But in Zhang Wei's eyes, this sentence is not binding at all.

...

outside court.

When Zhang Wei and Yang Huihui walked out of the court, they both looked disappointed.

"Ms. Yang, this is my number. If your ex-husband shows up again, please remember to call me!"

Zhang Wei handed the other party a business card with his number written on it, and Tie Ruyun's information was written on the front of the card.

"Lawyer Zhang, what should I do if I dare not go home, he will kill me..."

"Ms. Yang, I know you are very scared. To be honest, I want to beat that bastard, but you also heard what the judge said..."

"Tonight, if you encounter any problems, just call me. As long as the surname Cao dares to show up, we will make him look good. Is that okay?"

"Then, that's the only way..."

Yang Huihui finally left and returned to her apartment. She still needs to pick up her children in the afternoon.

Zhang Wei watched the other party leave, his eyes gradually became dignified.

He felt that he had to take some protective measures.

He picked up his cell phone and made a call.

"Hanhan, have you been busy recently?"

"It's not a big deal for me to find you, I just want you to ask my father-in-law if there is any colleague I know who happens to live in the southern part of the city and can help me track down a place..."

"Oh, okay, thank you, I will treat you and my father-in-law to dinner another day."

"Yes, yes, yes, and my mother-in-law, I know, I know..."

After the phone call, Zhang Wei finally felt relieved.
