Xia City High People's Court.
A lawsuit was coming to an end.
The autumn sun shone through the large windows and landed on the fair face of the presiding judge, Xu Baohan, who was standing in the middle of the platform. The lines of his side profile were cold and hard, but he was handsome and smooth. Even with his head lowered, the bridge of his nose was still perfectly straight, but his entire body exuded a dignified and noble aura that no one could offend.
At this moment, his perfectly shaped thin lips were announcing the result of the trial.
"… The defendant, Lin Hao, caused the death of his wife, Chen Juanqi, in the parking lot. His criminal law has already violated the criminal law and constituted a traffic accident. However, because there was a problem with the car's brakes, it was a negligent crime. According to the second paragraph of Article 115 and the second paragraph of Article 25 of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China, Lin Hao was sentenced to three years in prison, suspended for four years …"
"I'm not convinced." Before he could finish his sentence, the plaintiff, Chen Liang, suddenly stood up from his chair and shouted irrationally, "Lin Hao, that bastard, clearly did it on purpose. Why is he only sentenced to three years? This kind of person should die …"
"Silence," Xu Baohan warned calmly and coldly, "Plaintiff, this is the court. If you don't be quiet, your actions will constitute contempt of court. If you have any objections to the trial, you can continue to appeal, but this time, the court will uphold the original sentence."
"Uncle Chen, calm down." An Lan quickly went over to hold Chen Liang back.
I've seen so many lawyers, but I've never seen such a trash like you. My daughter was clearly killed by that guy, but in the end, he was only sentenced to three years. If you can't bring the criminal to justice, what kind of lawyer are you? Do you know that our family has basically gone bankrupt in order to fight this lawsuit … "Chen Liang bared his teeth and glared at An Lan angrily until Xu Baohan finished reading the final verdict and stood up to leave. Chen Liang pushed An Lan away abruptly," Get lost, it's all your fault.
An Lan was pushed hard onto the table behind her. For a long time, she couldn't straighten her back because of the pain. However, when she looked up, Chen Liang had already run over to make trouble for Lin Hao, but he was forcefully stopped by his wife.
It was not until the intern Yan Wen quickly supported her. "Lawyer An, are you alright?"
At this moment, the defendant's lawyer, Qi Junwen, walked over with a smile and said, "Lawyer An, you, who are known as the undefeated legend in the industry, aren't that great? When I really fought with you, I realized that you're only so-so. Tsk tsk, I'm really sorry, this is already the second trial, I think you guys should give up. To be honest, we're still very willing to settle this privately with you. After all, the Chen family's situation is too tragic, and Chen Liang and his wife are already so old, it's better to leave some retirement money to live the rest of their lives."
After saying that, Qi Junwen left with Lin Hao proudly.
Yan Wen was so angry that she spat at his back, "Trash, who in the industry doesn't know that he specializes in taking on black-hearted cases? Lawyer An, I told you, you shouldn't have taken on this case. The presiding judge this time is Xu Baohan. Our law firm's lawyers have never won a case under him. He's not on good terms with us."
An Lan was originally filled with depression, but after hearing her words, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "As lawyers, do we still believe in superstitions like horoscopes?"
Yan Wen shrugged. "Then how do you explain the reason why we've been repeatedly defeated by Xu Baohan? Recently, we've been losing cases. If this continues, fewer and fewer people will come to Zhenyuan to represent cases."
At the mention of this matter, An Lan was also upset. "Let's go, let's leave this place first. I can't stand staying in the place where Xu Baohan has breathed."
An Lan's foreign affairs started before Su Su and Mo Liuxi got married, not after Su Su got pregnant.
