Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer

Chapter 140 Hypothetical Questions, Unexpected by Zhang Wei (High-quality goods plus more)

(Boutique, finally a boutique, I am so happy, the boredom of the past few days has been cleared away...)

PS: I was reviewed by group friends yesterday, and my mentality almost exploded!

...

City Court, Middle Court.

on the hearing bench.

Bai Meiqi sat in the first row, arms crossed, looking towards the court.

"It's actually Judge Ni Qiuping. It's really interesting. Zhang Wei probably doesn't know the character of this judge. Then it will be interesting."

Then, she swept to the left and right of the hearing booth.

"Speaking of which, why didn't the rest of the criminal team come? Today is Zhang Wei's case. As colleagues in the same team, they should all be there to support it. Is it because of the nature of the case that they don't want to show up?"

Bai Meiqi was curious that Tie Ruyun and the others didn't show up, but she guessed wrong.

It was Zhang Wei who gave Li Yueqin and Lin Yumeng the task of meeting the client of another case yesterday, and Tie Ruyun was also responsible for driving them, so they couldn't be there.

Bai Meiqi then looked at the seat next to her, Ding Chuntian and the two children were sitting there.

"Even I find this case difficult. How will Zhang Wei handle it?"

I have to admit that the appearance of the plaintiff's husband with two children is definitely a big killer in the trial, and he can easily win the sympathy of the jury.

As the defense, the defendant has the opportunity to screen the jury, but in Bai Meiqi's view, it is useless to ask any questions to screen the jury, because the final six jurors will still sympathize with the plaintiff.

A jury that can't sympathize with you at all can't win the lawsuit.

This is Bai Meiqi's opinion, and this is why she refuses to take over the case.

So this ace was also curious about why Zhang Wei had the confidence to take this case.

She's already looking forward to it...

in court.

"Since both the plaintiff and the defendant have settled down, this court announces that the preliminary trial of Yao Liting's claim against Chengyi Insurance Company has begun!"

After the judge Ni Qiuping finished explaining, she nodded to the court guard at the side.

Under the command of Tingwei, the candidate jury began to take their seats.

"Defendant's lawyer!"

Judge Ni pouted at Zhang Wei, indicating that he could start.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your reminder!"

Zhang Wei hurriedly thanked him, but Judge Ni rolled his eyes.

The voice of her words: I know you want to get close, so save my old lady from doing this!

Seeing the judge's reaction, Zhang Wei muttered inwardly.

This judge seems to get along a lot, and he doesn't even answer the polite words, which is really good.

After silently labeling Judge Ni as "menopausal" and "difficult to get along with" in his heart, Zhang Wei began to prepare to ask questions.

First of all, of course, the prologue.

"Good afternoon, fellow jurors!"

In the jury seat, everyone looked at Zhang Wei, but there were not many people with good intentions in their eyes.

Zhang Wei chose a juror who sat in the front row and looked at him not too badly.

"Hello ma'am, are you a mother?"

"Yes." The woman nodded and raised her hand wearing the wedding ring.

"Hello, ma'am, since you are a mother, you must have deep sympathy for the plaintiff, Ms. Yao Liting, right?"

"You're right. I do sympathize with that woman." The woman glanced at the plaintiff's seat and nodded.

At the trial seat, Judge Ni was about to take notes, because she knew that Zhang Wei was going to screen out this juror.

At the plaintiff's table, Wang Meiyan sneered.

"It's useless. Even if you screen out this one, there's no guarantee that the other jurors won't sympathize with my client. If you have the ability, you can screen out all the jurors. Unfortunately, you can't!"

She was full of confidence, because the defense had only six chances to dismiss jurors, and even if they used all six chances, the advantage was still on her side.

"Okay, thanks for your answer..."

When the woman heard what Zhang Wei said, she was about to leave.

"Madam, please wait a moment, I haven't finished my question yet."

"Ah?" The woman was surprised, you don't plan to screen me out?

"This kid didn't screen out that juror?" Judge Ni also put down the pen in his hand, with a strange expression on his face.

"What's the situation? Does he still want to keep that juror? Has this kid lost his mind?" Wang Meiyan was also confused, completely unable to guess what Zhang Wei was thinking at the moment.

As the woman sat down silently again, Zhang Wei smiled at her, and then rearranged his words.

"Ma'am, I would like to ask a hypothetical question, please simulate such a scene in your mind..."

"Suppose, you are going out to sea on a cruise ship, and you are standing on the deck to blow the wind, and two passengers fell into the water on the sea, you can't swim, and you only have a lifebuoy at hand, what would you do? To whom did you throw the lifebuoy?"

The woman glanced at Zhang Wei, blinked her eyes, and was a little confused.

Seeing the woman's expression, Zhang Wei reminded: "Madam, please answer my question, who will you throw the life buoy to?"

The woman shook her head: "But you haven't told me yet, what kind of people are those two unlucky guys? How do you want me to make a judgment?"

"Ma'am, the two unlucky bastards you mentioned are about to drown. They may only have less than a minute to live. Time is urgent!"

As Zhang Wei said, he patted the wooden railing of the jury seat, emphasizing that time waits for no one.

The jury members looked at each other, completely puzzled, and they didn't know why Zhang Wei asked such a question that made people have no surprise.

"Madam, you can ask me questions, and I will tell you part of their information, but I need to emphasize to you again that time waits for no one, and saving lives is the top priority!"

"Then, let me ask, are the two of you the same age?"

Seeing that Zhang Wei didn't seem to be joking, the woman had no choice but to ask a question weakly.

"No, they are of different ages. One of them is a young man in his 20s and 30s, and the other is an old man in his 60s or 70s!"

After hearing this, the woman said without any hesitation, "Young man, I will choose to save the young man!"

"Ma'am, why?"

"What reason is there for this?"

The woman smiled, "That young man can live another fifty or sixty years, but the other one may only have ten years left, so what judgment do I need?"

Hearing the woman's answer, Zhang Wei nodded, "Okay, then as you said, you dropped the lifebuoy and threw it to that young man."

"Congratulations, ma'am, you saved a man's life, you saved that young man, I applaud you!"

After Zhang Wei finished speaking, he really applauded.

His behavior also made the whole court feel baffled.

The woman who was questioned glanced at the juror sitting next door, both of whom were confused.

in the dock.

"Representative Cheng, is it too late for us to change lawyers?"

"Yang Fawu, my lawyer Zhang was appointed by the executive president, and I dare not change it!"

"Then let me go to the next court hearing. I am the company's legal counsel, so I can go to court."

"That won't work. Lawyer Zhang may be hiding something behind. You can sit with me and continue watching."

Yang Fawu had no choice but to shut up.

Although Cheng Liang said he had confidence in Zhang Wei, he actually had no idea in his heart.

"What's the situation with this kid? He's still not that Zhang Wei. How come he's crazy?"

Ni Qiuping on the trial bench, watching Zhang Wei "go crazy" in court, also complained in her heart.

Although she is a judge in the civil court, she has also heard Zhang Wei's name in the criminal court.

Unexpectedly, this time I met Zhang Wei, and the other party turned into a fool.

she was disappointed...

Zhang Wei's question also puzzled the people in the hearing booth.

"Is this question meaningful, or is he trying to instill some concepts into the jury, but I have been in the lawsuit for four years, and I have never encountered such an outrageous question from him?"

Among them even Bai Meiqi.

The eyes of the audience once again converged on Zhang Wei.

"Ma'am, congratulations on saving a person. You threw the lifebuoy to that young man. You saved a life!"

"Okay, so that's the end of the problem?"

The woman was also a little uncertain, looking at Zhang Wei.

"Of course not, there is one more question I need you to answer."

"Please tell me..."

"OK!"

Zhang Wei nodded, then changed the tone of the conversation, and said in an extremely serious tone: "If I sue you for murdering that old man, what will you think in your heart?"

"Ah, this..."

The woman didn't expect that Zhang Wei would come out suddenly, and she was completely caught off guard.

"this……"

The other jurors also looked at each other in blank dismay. Isn't this question too much?

Zhang Wei quickly restrained his serious expression, and smiled again, "It's okay, ma'am, this question itself is a hypothesis, and you don't need to answer it!"

"Your Honor, the defense accepts this juror!"

Judge Ni opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.

However, she still picked up a pen and started to record, registering the information that this juror was selected.

Next, Zhang Wei asked a few more jurors, and each question was full of reversals.

He also asked some of the jurors the same question about someone falling into the water as when he asked the woman just now, which also made those jurors baffled.

"Very well, now we have a jury!"

Judge Ni knocked on the cone and announced:

"Considering the physical condition of the plaintiff, Ms. Yao Liting, this court agrees to expedite the trial. The court session is set at 7:30 tomorrow morning. The plaintiff will take the lead in making a statement. The court is now adjourned!"

With the judge's announcement, the court was dissolved.

"Lawyer Zhang, what is the mystery of your question?"

As soon as they disbanded, Cheng Liang joined in.

"My question is not for the present, but for the future!"

Zhang Wei explained, but he knew the explanation, and Cheng Liang probably couldn't understand it.

"Paving the way for the future?"

From behind, Bai Meiqi also came over immediately, and also heard Zhang Wei's explanation.

She was thoughtful, as if trying to figure out the real intention of Zhang Wei's question.

"Lawyer Zhang, then tomorrow's trial will be entrusted to you!"

"Do you think the plaintiff will do this tomorrow?" Cheng Liang was still a little worried and couldn't help asking.

"Tomorrow……"

Zhang Wei closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them, knowing clearly.

"If I were to do it, I would choose two typical insurance cases to explain during the plaintiff's statement of case, and then find a few expert witnesses to come out..."

...

Wednesday.

7:30 in the morning, inside the courtroom.

Plaintiff's case statement stage.

Wang Meiyan stood in the middle of the court and began to talk about the two cases she had prepared in advance for this trial.

"In July 5 years ago, Mr. Li, a client, was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia by hospital examination. Insurance company A attached great importance to it, and immediately formed a special case team to start the early payment and claim settlement services for major diseases. The special case team went to the hospital to visit the customer , to inform the customer of the relevant procedures and other matters in the claim settlement. Considering that the customer is sick and comatose, his wife is pregnant, and his parents are old, Company A arranges experienced claimants to provide considerate claim services, and understands the leukemia treatment plan and medical treatment channels in many ways. Guidance for family members in terms of medical treatment, assisting family members of customers to collect relevant information on claims, and completed insurance claims of 5 million yuan."

"Please listen clearly, it's 5 million yuan. Insurance company A didn't hesitate, and didn't think about rejecting the customer's application at all, and paid a total of 5 million yuan!"

After Wang Meiyan finished speaking, she picked up the second document and read it out in court again:

"In November 3 years ago, Ms. Zheng, a client, was diagnosed with poorly differentiated uterine cancer. The personnel rushed to the hospital to visit with flowers, used the APP terminal to accept the claim materials, and opened the emergency channel for claims, and the verification was passed in just 4 hours, and the customer received 900,000 yuan in critical illness compensation."

"In 4 hours, 900,000 critical illness insurance claims, insurance company B can be described as the speed of soldiers, but in comparison, an insurance company has delayed it for almost a year..."

After Wang Meiyan finished her statement, she stared at the dock and Zhang Wei with a sneer.

And following the two cases she provided, the eyes of the six jurors looking at the dock had already become dissatisfied.

Looking at other insurance companies, A gave 5 million, and B even passed the 900,000 claim application within 4 hours.

But what about your sincerity and insurance?

The 500,000 yuan was not given, and it was delayed for almost a year!

It's simply hateful, the conscience has been eaten by dogs!

In the dock, Cheng Liang and Yang Fawu's expression collapsed.

"Lawyer Zhang, what do you think we are doing now? Why do I feel that the jurors are looking at us wrongly? The lawsuits I participated in before don't seem to be so serious in the courtroom?"

"Calm down, it's just a small scene, didn't I tell you all yesterday, Wang Meiyan's moves did not exceed my expectations!"

"Although you guessed it right, Lawyer Zhang, but this is a conspiracy. Even if he can kill people, we can't hide from him!"

"So, when the witnesses come out, it's time for me to fight back."

Zhang Wei patted Cheng Liang on the shoulder, signaling him to calm down.

But the latter couldn't calm down at the moment, after all, this case has too much to do with it!

in court.

Wang Meiyan continued to speak: "Every juror, insurance is not an optional thing, but a real guarantee. My client suffers from malignant tumors, and his body is getting weaker due to surgical accidents. In her eyes, insurance is a necessity of life, and it is her life-saving straw. The speed and attitude of the insurance company to settle claims are important factors affecting people's consumption of insurance, and it is also the most important thing for my client!"

"But what did you see? After I list the insurance claims of companies A and B, you can compare the sincerity insurance company. I don't think I need to say more?"

"Of course, this is only the stage of our case statement. I don't expect you to make a decision and make a judgment on this case with just a few words, but please understand one thing, that is, the next trial In the process, the defendant will definitely do everything possible to refute my point of view, and is likely to attack my client and find out her problems. If that happens, please recall the cases I just listed."

"Why are companies A and B able to pay compensation readily, but sincerity insurance has another attitude?"

Wang Meiyan's words made the jurors unconsciously nod their heads and agree with them in their hearts.

Even in the hearing booth, many people nodded. After all, many of them also bought insurance, and they all encountered bad things about insurance.

Wang Meiyan looked at the atmosphere of the trial and the jurors' reactions, and was very satisfied with the effect.

"Your Honor, the prosecution is going to call the first witness to testify in court!"

Judge Ni nodded and motioned for the prosecution to start.

Not long after, the first witness was called to appear in court.

This witness is none other than the attending doctor who was in charge of treating the plaintiff Yao Liting's cancer.

"Dr. Du, after you successfully cured my client's endometrial cancer, did you find that the cancer had spread to her liver?"

"Yes, she was in the early stage of cancer when we found out, and we were sure to cure her physical disease at that time."

"Then you subsequently used a treatment called "microwave ablation" for my client. Can you explain the principle of this treatment to the jury? "

"Well, yes, this treatment method actually uses microwaves with a specific measurement and precision... Microwaves will generate some kind of intense heat flow, killing cancer cells..."

"Thank you, Dr. Du, for your explanation, but I don't think the jury needs to listen to an overly professional explanation!"

Wang Meiyan interrupted Dr. Du and asked, "I just want to ask, has this treatment worked on my client?"

Dr. Du showed embarrassment, and apologized slightly: "I can only say that the result is not good...I am sorry to your client..."

Wang Mei ignored Dr. Du's apology, and asked again: "Dr. Du, why are you apologizing?"

"Because the instrument malfunctioned and released heat 30 times over the safe threshold, the problem led to..."

"As a result of my client, her liver was damaged in a large area, isn't it!"

Seeing that Dr. Du was having a hard time speaking, Wang Meiyan rushed to talk.

"Yes!"

"Then I would like to ask, is there any way to repair such damage?"

"I'm sorry, such a wound cannot be repaired by relying on existing medical methods. The only way to solve this problem is to obtain a new liver source."

Hearing this answer, Wang Meiyan smiled, "Then Dr. Du, do you want my client to obtain a liver source and receive the best treatment?"

"As a doctor, I certainly want my patients to receive the best care possible!"

"Then I would like to ask, what is the reason why my client cannot obtain a liver source even if his life is dying?"

"Because of……"

Dr. Du glanced at the dock and sighed, "It's because the sincerity insurance company rejected the application to match the liver source!"

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar!

This testimony is simply a lore!
