Lawyer's character

Chapter 455 Bribery Case

"It's really good to drink tea, but it's too expensive." Wan Kefa nodded.

Fang Yi thought, "That's because you are very demanding. A few hundred yuan for a can of tea will last me two months. Your cup of tea costs as much as my can of tea. How can it be free of charge?"

Then again, after introducing such a big customer to Yunwu Tea House, Mr. Yun doesn’t have to give me a commission! While Fang Yi was thinking wildly, Wan Kefa spoke.

"I took on a criminal case yesterday. It was a bribery case. The first-instance lawyer fee was five hundred thousand. Are you interested?" Wan Kefa handed Fang Yi a cup of tea and asked.

"That's great! What's going on with this case?" Fang Yi's eyes flashed.

He thought that he must be interested in the 500,000 legal fees. With these 500,000 legal fees at the bottom, there is hope for income this year. This fat old man has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. He is still smarter than he is. He costs half a million in legal fees. When will he be so awesome?

Wan Kefa smiled, stood up, took a case file from his desk, and handed it to Fang Yi: "You should do some research first. The client's name is Zhou Yingqi. He is the deputy general manager of a cultural media company. He was arrested for nearly two years on suspicion of accepting bribes. At the end of last month, the case was transferred to the procuratorate. The client’s parents wanted to see if they could get the client released on bail pending trial and release him.

The old rule is that the lawyer's fee is 37 cents, and there is no need to pay me an introduction fee. I said that the team's resources will be tilted towards you and I will never break my promise. "

"Well, thank you Lao Wan. I'll take a look at the case file first. I'll draft an application for bail pending trial in the next two days and submit it." Fang Yi took the case file and said to himself: The fat old man is indeed interesting.

Less than five minutes after Fang Yi returned to the office, Zhou Ying knocked on the office door.

"Lawyer Fang, how are you?" Zhou Ying smiled playfully after entering.

Generally speaking, in law firms, in addition to the instructor, if you want to follow other lawyers to handle cases, the trainee lawyers must be proactive, otherwise, to put it more unpleasantly, "you will not be able to warm up even if you eat shit." The reason is that there are too many trainee lawyers. Other lawyers are generally reluctant to bring in newbies.

There are a total of eight trainee lawyers hired by the Wanke Law team this time. They are not too many and they are assigned to the Litigation Department and the Legal Department. However, there is still competition. Tian Xin has been following Lao Huang to handle cases, while Zhou Ying uses familiar people. Advantage stared at Fang Yi, Lawyer Song and others, not wanting to give other trainee lawyers a chance. So she didn't dare to slack off for a moment and was always vigilant.

"As you wish." Fang Yi picked up the file bag and shook it.

"Great. In order to facilitate your analysis of the case, I have applied for a small whiteboard for you from the office. Please wait!" After saying that, Zhou Ying turned around and ran out. More than ten minutes later, Zhou Ying walked in pushing a small whiteboard. , the whiteboard is a little more than one meter long and about seventy meters wide. There is a black iron frame underneath, which looks very stable.

"Can I get this too?" Fang Yi looked at Zhou Ying in surprise.

"Of course, we have all the office supplies in our office, but you don't usually need them." Zhou Ying said proudly.

She has been a paralegal for more than two years and is very familiar with the people in the administration and finance departments, so she naturally knows these things very well.

"The whiteboard is good, but it may not be used for the time being." Fang Yi said.

"Why?" Zhou Ying looked at him doubtfully.

"This case file only contains case acceptance information, but no case file materials. I haven't reviewed the file yet. You first prepare an application for bail pending trial. Then make an appointment with the procuratorate to review the file.

By the way, I will contact the client again and ask them to come to the office. I need to confirm whether the entrustment procedures are their signature and fingerprint. "Fang Yi said.

"They should have signed the entrustment procedures, and the proof of kinship has been submitted." Zhou Ying said doubtfully.

"I'll give you a piece of advice. As a criminal lawyer, you must be suspicious of everything. Don't be gullible." Fang Yi said seriously.

"Okay, I will definitely handle it for you." After Zhou Ying took the file bag, she ran out like the wind.

On the morning of the next day, Zhou Yingqi's father came to the law firm. Mr. Zhou was a gray-haired old man in his seventies. Before his retirement, he was the vice president of a local university.

Fang Yi asked about the case, but Mr. Zhou's knowledge was limited and he didn't say anything valuable. However, during the chat, Fang Yi got the information that Zhou Yingqi had a bad relationship with her husband. She had sued for divorce, but her husband did not agree to the divorce. In the end, the court dismissed Zhou Yingqi's lawsuit.

This also explains why Zhou Yingqi was arrested and her husband did not show up, but her father went through the entrustment procedures.

In the afternoon, Fang Yi and Zhou Ying went to the procuratorate to review the case and submitted an application for bail pending trial to the prosecutor in charge of the case.

Zhou Ying called before going and asked that the procuratorate did not provide copying services, but it could take photos. If you wanted to copy the case files, you could go to the court to make copies. (The actual situation of each procuratorate is different. Some procuratorates will provide services such as case file copying, engraving, and electronic documents, while some procuratorates will not provide these services.)

Fang Yi asked Zhou Ying to bring a digital camera. Zhou Ying wanted to take pictures with her mobile phone, but Fang Yi rejected it. After arriving at the procuratorate, Zhou Ying realized why Fang Yi didn't let her use her mobile phone to film. There was too much material in Zhou Yingqi's bribery case, which was half a meter high. After returning from grading, Zhou Ying began to print the case file materials.

"Lawyer Fang, Zhou Yingqi's case file materials are all here. I have sorted out the electronic materials and sent them to your email." After Zhou Ying put the last pile of materials on Fang Yi's desk, she wiped the dirt on her forehead. sweat.

"Okay, good job. We will meet at the detention center tomorrow. Our job these two days is to sort out the case and read all the materials, which is quite boring. If you have other things to do, I can help you." Fang Yi said with a smile.

"It's okay, I have nothing to do." Zhou Ying said hurriedly.

After finally catching a big case, Zhou Ying had already planned to follow it from beginning to end. After finishing this case, she would learn a lot. It was much better than following the lawyer to the court and the detention center with a hammer and a stick. .

Early the next morning, Fang Yi and Zhou Ying went to the detention center to meet Zhou Yingqi.

Zhou Yingqi is in her thirties and has maintained a good figure. Although she is locked up in a detention center and looks a little haggard, her outstanding appearance and unique temperament cannot be blocked.

When Fang Yi went to meet with him, Zhou Yingqi almost collapsed and his logic was in chaos. Fang Yi was confused by what he was thinking and saying.

After returning to the law firm, Fang Yi had to ask Zhou Ying to sort out what Zhou Yingqi said into categories.

In the next few days, the whiteboard finally came in handy. Fang Yi and Zhou Ying sorted out the entire case in chronological order. Zhou Ying was very careful and listed the situation in each time period separately.

After sorting out the case, Fang Yi began to search for relevant legal provisions, judicial interpretations and judicial cases to analyze the case.
