life as a police officer in america

How dare someone kidnap a police officer in the town of Alaska?

Wang Dengming wondered if his position as police chief was too cowardly. Someone used his license plate, and later someone kidnapped his subordinates. It was very funny.

When Wang Dengming rushed to the old Miggs Hotel, a thin man with withered hair and extremely sunken eyes was waiting for him at the door of the hotel.

I am familiar with this man, his name is Alex Sokun, he is Sofia's husband, he works in the town's court, he is equivalent to the court clerk, and he cooperates with the judges to handle all kinds of messy cases in the court.

In Europe and the United States, the names of clerks are a bit confusing. They can be called court reporters or stenographers. Depending on the country, some clerks have positions in court hearings, and some do not. They are purely assistants to the judge, and the length of employment is

Not the same.

They are silent witnesses in countless trials and jury inquiries of all types. They record witness testimony, attorneys' questions and the judge's instructions. If the authenticity of certain testimony is questioned during the trial by both the original and the defendant, they will

They can directly transcribe what the stenographer said and make corrections immediately.

The clerk's transcript is often an important part of the trial record. Lawyers often use it to explore possible avenues of appeal. The judge may also review the transcript before making a decision. In most areas, the transcript generated by the clerk

It's the official record of the trial. It makes it very important and therefore the requirements for accuracy are very, very high.

Therefore, although the clerk rarely speaks, he is a very important figure in the court.

Of course, judges and clerks are not always in harmony, and clerks sometimes turn against each other. Infighting between judges and clerks not only damages the high image of the judge concerned, but also damages the overall image of the judge.

But the phenomenon of clerks defecting is very rare.

The reason is also very simple. Many clerks will eventually become judges. They are the third echelon of American judges, reserve talents.

Every time Wang Dengming appears in court as a police witness, you can basically see him.

I have to say, he is a competent clerk

At the beginning, Wang Dengming didn't know that he was Sophia's husband. It wasn't until Fengge Lilong beat up Fengge Lilong on the radio that Wang Dengming figured out that they were a couple.

Feng Ge Lilong was the prosecutor general, and the little clerk had nothing to do with Feng Ge Lilong. Later, Wang Dengming and Feng Ge Lilong had an affair. When the little clerk bumped into Wang Dengming, his eyes were different.

In Wang Dengming's impression, he was a quiet, even cowardly man. The whole town knew about Sophia's domestic violence incident, and it was always Alexokun who got beaten. Moreover, Sophia was so ruthless every time she struck.

Leave some battle results on Alexokun's face and neck.

Therefore, when Wang Dengming heard that Alex Sokun had tied up Sofia and the detective in the old Miggs Hotel, Wang Dengming's first reaction was that he had seen a ghost.

What is even more surprising is that today, he has a follower. Who is the follower? She is also an acquaintance of Wang Dengming. The woman is called Fei Luochun, who is the special lawyer of Tu Tianbu.

This woman wears glasses and has a horse face, and she looks like a witch, but some people say that this woman is old and unique, and there is no one like her in America.

She likes to wear black suits very much. She likes to wear black suits in spring, summer, autumn and winter, whether it is skirts, coats, shoes or socks. She is known as the black widow. She is divorced and is still single.

She and Fengge Lilong are known as the two weirdos in the judicial system of Gumeng Town, Alaska.

Wang Dengming has experienced the Black Widow's ability to litigate cases, second only to Chief Prosecutor Feng Ge Lilong.

Wang Dengming fought her seriously and fought eight rounds of verbal wars, all of which ended with Chief Wang turning pale. Therefore, when he saw this person, Chief Wang would subconsciously feel wary.

Last year, after Wang Dengming was promoted to police chief, he beat up Butcher Gordon Bu in a fight over who was the boss of the town. At that time, Wang Dengming was worried that this bitch would cause trouble and would not let him go.

However, when Butcher Gordon Bu saw that Wang Dengming was so good at fighting, he thought of a way to get Wang Dengming to come to the ring to help him get back the money. He would not let Black Widow sue Wang Dengming. Therefore, the matter went nowhere.

Today, the black widow was standing next to Alex Sokun, holding a black briefcase in her hand. Wang Dengming felt that something was wrong. I was afraid that this bitch was going to cause trouble. But Wang Dengming then thought, Tu Ge

Both Denbu and Denbu are my little brothers, so I don’t fear you.

"Hello, Chief Wang."

Alexokun stretched out his hand first, and Wang Dengming stretched out his hand to shake hands.

"Mr. Alexokon, you are so courageous that you dare to tie the policeman to the bed. Do you know what this is?"

Wang Dengming first made a show of force.

"I know, this is called assaulting the police."

Wang Dengming glared: 'You still do this even if you know it?'

Fei Luochun smiled and said: "This has nothing to do with Judge Alexokon. I asked people to do this, Mr. Sheriff."'

"Judge??"

Wang Dengming thought he heard wrongly.

Black Widow: "Yes, judge, the Alaska Court of Meng Town has become the Third Tribunal, and Alex Sokun is the first judge of the Third Tribunal, Mr. Sheriff."

"Nonsense, when did it happen?"

There are several courtrooms in the court in Alas Ancient Town. How could Wang Dengming not know about them?

In the United States, for trivial matters, you have to go to court, find a lawyer, and find a judge. Therefore, depending on the size of the city, its population, and its level of development, whether it is a local court or a state court, there will be different tribunals with different foundations.

cases go to different tribunals.

Just two weeks ago, there were only two tribunals in the town, one was the civil tribunal and the other was the criminal tribunal. Where did the third tribunal appear now?

Black Widow saw Wang Dengming confused and said with a smile: 'It's the Small Claims Tribunal. It has been established for five days.'

Wang Dengming's eyes suddenly blinked.

In the United States, there is a kind of court that does not require lawyers, commonly known as small claims court. As the name suggests, small claims court hears small civil cases with relatively small litigation amounts. It is affiliated with the local judicial system and is governed by state laws. The purpose of its establishment is

Allowing the public to directly participate in the trial of small-amount cases reduces litigation costs and improves trial efficiency. The process is simpler than that of ordinary civil courts. It does not require high legal knowledge of the parties, does not require hiring lawyers, and can quickly conclude the case.

The standards for accepting cases in small claims court are generally based on the amount of the lawsuit, which is formed by state laws. For example, in California, the amount of the lawsuit does not exceed $10,000.

The cases accepted by the small claims court are mainly small-sum money cases that are closely related to people's lives. Many state laws actually allow lawyers to participate in the trial of small claims cases, but there are no mandatory requirements. Some state laws do not allow lawyers to represent them, such as California.

Both New York and New York prohibit lawyers from appearing in court, but some people hire lawyers as translators.

Such as breach of contract disputes, tort disputes, identity cases (defamation, insult, infringement of reputation rights), and marriage cases, the small claims court cannot hear them, and they need to be adjudicated in the district court or a designated court.

Common causes of action in small claims courts. Damage caused, such as minor car accidents, personal safety, dog bites, etc., unpaid, such as deposits, property, etc.; non-payment, such as salary, service fees, insurance compensation, rent,

Commissions, etc.; non-execution of contracts, such as agreements, leases, contracts, etc.; loss of luggage, property, etc.; check bounces, stop payments, etc.; failure to provide repairs, services, product quality issues, etc.

"Chief Wang, did you hear what I said clearly?"

Wang Dengming reacted: "Then you are..."

Alexokun said with a dignified tone: "Fei Luochun, you are my secretary now."

Wang Dengming suddenly grinned and said: "Okay, as a court judge and secretary, I know the law and break the law, so just wait!"

Wang Dengming turned around and wanted to leave. Black Widow called him: "Chief Wang, don't threaten me. If your police officer commits theft, can I find someone to tie him up and then tell the police?"

What? I am doing something for you, you should thank me."

Wang Dengming was really confused.
