Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer - Chapter 361

Chapter 361 Pre-trial hearing? Public opinion guidance and anti-guidance

Tuesday, morning.

When Zhang Wei came to work in the law firm again, he found that the new people in the criminal department looked at him strangely.

“What’s the matter, the look in my eyes is not right, is there something growing on my face?”

He touched his nose, it was a little itchy from being stared at by so many people.

“Master, you’ve been hacked again!” Finally, the little apprentice stood up and pointed to his computer screen.

Obviously, she was browsing the web again just now.

This wave… is sacrificing himself and blowing himself up on the spot.

“Someone hacked me again?” Zhang Wei nodded to show that he understood, then quickly walked into his office, turned on the computer, and started searching.

In fact, there is no need to search, and the top page headlines are almost all about him.

“Shocked, a well-known lawyer did such a maddening act! 》

“In our city’s judicial system, there is such a problem, can Zhang be lawless? 》

“Extrajudicial fanatics, to start a well-known lawyer, is simply disgusting! 》

V Bo Toutiao articles, of which there are three built-in tops in 24 hours, accounting for almost one-third of the hot search top seats.

The Zhang mentioned in this article is obviously Zhang Wei.

In these few articles, I was about to name and scold him by pointing at Zhang Wei’s nose.

Especially Article 2 involves the issue of the judicial system.

And the accompanying picture of the article is actually a scene of Zhang Wei, Xiao Baihe, and Xia Qianyue eating at Dongjiang Star.

Although three young people are eating together in the picture, their identities are not simple.

And in the article, the identity information of the three people was specifically named.

One is a defense lawyer, one is a district attorney, and one is an investigator of the serious crime team.

With an identity like   , you can still eat together and look happy?

This is different in the eyes of the conscientious.

You and that prosecutor really have an affair?

And you and the girl in the serious crime team, is it really a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship?

Even in the comments, it is said that Zhang Wei is actually covering up, and the prosecutors and investigators are the true love.

In short, the comment circle is unsightly, and all kinds of rumors are flying around.

After   Zhang Wei swiped a comment, he knew that this comment area could not be viewed, because the Internet melon eaters don’t care who you are, they just say what they have, and they will never accumulate virtue.

The anonymous letter on the Internet has given them great convenience, so that they can have no scruples.

Continuing to browse the web, Zhang Wei soon found that a hot search rushed up, and the ranking continued to rise.

“As a member of Dongda Law School, I am ashamed of what Zhang did! 》

This article was published by a well-known self-media organization. The article used the speech of a lawyer to criticize Zhang Wei.

In his speech, Zhang Wei immediately judged that the lawyer who was interviewing was Xu Zhifeng.

In his article, he scolded Zhang Wei for his shameless act of threatening witnesses, and even @Dongda Law School officials demanded that Zhang Wei be removed.

The article is well written. Xu Zhifeng burst into tears and complained. In just a short composition of a few hundred words, you can see the author’s compassionate feelings.

“Well, it’s good to find a ghostwriter!”

Zhang Wei couldn’t help but complain.

The person who wrote this small composition has a very powerful stroke, and he can feel it. The other party is clearly accusing, but in fact he wants to kill himself!

Those words are like sharp knives, stabbing at the key points!

It seems that Xu Zhifeng intends to guide online public opinion and let people blow himself up.

Jingle Bell!

Just as Zhang Wei was browsing the web information, the call came.

“Hello, who is that?”

“Lawyer Zhang, the Civil Division of the Municipal Court has called.”

“Oh, take them over.”

The phone was transferred, and then the clerk of the civil court communicated with Zhang Wei and informed the court of the next preparation process.

A hearing will be held in the afternoon to decide whether Fang Mingming’s case against Zhang Wei needs a court session.

But the hearing is not good for Zhang Wei, because the witness at the hearing is none other than Master Xu.

As the public prosecutor in that case, she was selected by Xu Zhifeng as a representative witness and went to court to accuse Zhang Wei.

After putting down the phone, Zhang Wei’s eyes flashed with solemnity.

“Dude, is this the Avengers?”

But fortunately, these were all within his expectations.

Even, even in court, Zhang Wei is not afraid of Xu Zhifeng.

This guy is just a jumping clown!

The person Zhang Wei cares more about is the person behind Xu Zhifeng.

who can that be?

Theoretically, the person behind Xu Zhifeng should be Qin Shaocong, because Xu Zhifeng is from Longteng International, so obviously he was instructed by Qin Shaocong.

Logically speaking, it should not be Qin Shaocong.

Although Zhang Wei admits that he has offended many people, he also has many enemies in the East.

But Qin Shaocong is not among them. Although the two have had an intersection, it is obvious that they have not yet reached the point of life and death.

If it wasn’t Qin Shaocong, who would it be?

Hu Yaode of Blackfoot Law Firm?

This is obviously unrealistic, because if Hu Yaode wants to take action, he must come in person, instead of sending a lawyer from Longteng Law Firm to help.

Don’t they have their own lawyers? Hu Yaode is also an excellent lawyer. Why should he seek farther?

Lao Guo Lao Zhao at the local inspection headquarters, that is even more impossible.

Although Lao Guo and Lao Zhao had a grudge against him, it was a public affair. In private, they didn’t have much interaction, and it was impossible for the other party to do so.

As for the other people, Zhang Wei was at a loss for judgment.

After all, the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. To find out who is behind Xu Zhifeng, we need to use more means and resources.

Also, there is the afternoon hearing.

Thinking of this, Zhang Wei was a little speechless.

Why bother?

Holding a hearing, isn’t this superfluous?

Xu Zhifeng made it clear that he wanted Zhang Wei to die. Did Ni Qiuping think that if a hearing was held, the other party would retreat?

People may decide what routine they want to prepare in court, he has to follow it himself.

“By the way, these hot searches were bought by Xu Zhifeng, do I have to prepare a little later?”

Zhang Wei immediately took out his mobile phone and opened contacts.

【Zhang Wei: Second daughter, help! Help! 】

【Zhao Xiaoxiao: What are you doing, what are you doing, I don’t know if this lady is sleeping/sleepy]

【Zhao Xiaoxiao: Talk about something, Ma Liudi! 】

【Zhang Wei: Did you know that I got into a lawsuit recently? 】

【Zhao Xiaoxiao: I know/excited】

【Zhang Wei: Then do you know that I have been searched by someone on V-blog, and now the top four are all me. 】

【Zhao Xiaoxiao, um, let me take a look~]

【Zhao Xiaoxiao: I see! 】

【Zhao Xiaoxiao: Do ​​you want me to take down these hot searches and delete them from the top? 】

【Zhang Wei: Forget it, now that there are so many people eating melons, the navy and the trolls are already in place. If I ask you to delete the hot search, maybe they will falsely accuse me and V Bo of collaborating! 】

【Zhao Xiaoxiao: Then what do you want me to do/scratch your head]

【Zhang Wei: I want you to help me, put a few more hot searches at the top, I have edited the content, that’s all… 】

[Zhang Wei: Screenshot.jpg, Screenshot.jpg, Screenshot.jpg]

[Zhao Xiaoxiao: Good guy, you are really sinister/smiling]

[Zhang Wei: We are each other~/Agreement]

【Zhao Xiaoxiao: Get out! /swipe]

【Zhang Wei: So the second girl, please~]

×After the chat window was dropped, Zhang Wei’s eyes also flashed a wicked look.

Since you are in the first year of the new year, don’t blame me for the fifteenth!

…

Afternoon, City Court.

Civil court, small court.

Zhang Wei sat in the defendant’s box, Xu Zhifeng and Fang Mingming sat in the plaintiff’s box.

At the judgment seat, Ni Qiuping was ready.

“The plaintiff’s lawyer, what about the witnesses you called?”

Ni Qiuping glanced at the time and couldn’t bear it anymore.

It was said that this afternoon, how come it is, your witnesses haven’t come yet?

Xu Zhifeng was also a little panicked at the moment, because he had called the office of the District Prosecutor’s Office in Zhongcheng District. After Xu Suyun heard about Xu Zhifeng’s case, he immediately agreed to appear in court.

Unexpectedly, the other party actually let him pigeons!

Dare to be late for the hearing!

This is simply…

boom!

The door of the small court suddenly opened, and then a crowd poured in.

was headed by Xu Suyun, and her apprentice Chai Ping was by her side.

But the point is not Xu Suyun, she was going to appear in court today, so it is not unexpected.

The point is, the people around Xu Suyun.

Zhao Chunming, Guo Wufeng, plus a bunch of newcomers at the local inspection headquarters, at least a dozen or so.

Such a large number of people poured into the courtroom and sat in the hearing box.

“Good guy, is it a large army again?”

Zhang Wei saw that Lao Zhao and Lao Guo brought a group of people in, and he would have been surprised.

Ni Qiuping in the trial seat too, saw Guo Wufeng and Zhao Chunming appear, and there was no change.

“I’m sorry, the judge and the plaintiff’s lawyer met colleagues from the District Prosecution Headquarters on the way here, so we chatted for a while and wasted time!”

After    Xu Suyun arrived, he quickly explained the reason.

“By the way, Master Xu, I’m also waiting for you. Why don’t you apologize to me? Are you favoring one over the other?”

Zhang Wei suddenly smiled and joked.

Will Xu Suyun apologize to Zhang Wei? Obviously not.

So she glanced at Zhang Wei, snorted coldly at the same time, and walked to the witness stand.

Obviously you’re late, and you’re still giving me a show?

Zhang Wei had to complain that Xu Shitai is Xu Shitai. Although it sounded like an apology just now, he always had a “you boy owes me money” attitude towards everyone.

Zhang Wei took another look at the hearing booth.

Zhao Chunming and Guo Wufeng sneered at the same time, as if preparing to watch someone’s joke.

“Okay, let’s all look forward to it…”

Zhang Wei also smiled, then turned his head to look at the tribunal.

“Cough cough, whether this case needs to go to court for litigation, this court deliberately took time to prepare today’s hearing to listen to the opinions of the hearers!”

“Ms. Xu Suyun, you can start!” Ni Qiuping waved her hand and motioned for the witness to speak.

“Cough, first of all, thank Judge Ni for giving me a chance to expose the defendant’s lawyer’s crimes to the public!”

“I can say here that Zhang Wei’s behavior is simply outrageous, he…”

“be opposed to!”

Xu Suyun was interrupted by a sudden voice before he started to accuse.

“The witness’s statement is vague in content and general in concept. Is such a statement an accusation against me?”

Zhang Wei spread his hands and looked wronged, “If you can accuse me like this, then I will also accuse you, Master Xu, every day, with a cold face every day, just like a murderer, I am so afraid!”

“You bastard…” Xu Suyun gritted his teeth and was about to get angry immediately.

“Ok!”

Fortunately, Ni Qiuping is not a small judge and can still hold the scene.

With a nasal voice and a murderous look, Xu Suyun sat back again.

“Zhang Wei, sit down for me too!”

After she signaled Zhang Wei to calm down, she looked at the witness stand: “Ms. Xu Suyun, please be simple and clear, and don’t add some unnecessary words. Court time is precious, and my time is even more precious!”

Hearing the warning, Xu Suyun understood.

“Good judge, I see!”

She immediately stated, and then explained: “In one of my cases, Mr. Fang is my prosecution witness, and he can provide the decisive testimony of the case, but he was called by lawyer Zhang to Jincheng Law Firm the day before the trial, and He was seriously threatened by the other party and warned of personal safety, so that he had to give up testifying in court for the sake of his own safety.”

“Because Mr. Fang was unable to appear in court, the suspect who could have been convicted had to be released in court!”

“This is all Zhang Wei’s fault. He secretly threatened our witnesses and forced them to change their mouths. This is simply obstructing justice and threatening and intimidating witnesses. He is not worthy of being a lawyer. He is simply a scum in the judicial system! ”

Xu Suyun was obviously holding back his anger, and the decibels became higher and higher when he spoke, and finally stood up and rebuked Zhang Wei, his voice extremely sharp.

In the hearing booth, many audience members couldn’t help nodding their heads, then looked at Zhang Wei.

These eyes are filled with suspicion, contempt and strong hostility.

“Defendant, do you have any explanation for the witness’s allegations?”

“certainly!”

Zhang Wei stood up and explained: “First of all, I didn’t threaten the prosecution witnesses!”

“You dare to say that you didn’t threaten Mr. Fang?” Xu Suyun pointed to Fang Mingming on the plaintiff’s seat and asked immediately.

“Of course, I just had a friendly exchange with him. How can it be considered a threat?”

Zhang Wei also spread his hands, his face innocent: “Besides, Mr. Fang was not a witness for the prosecution at that time. Even if I did threaten him, it wouldn’t be a threat to a witness, right? What’s more, I never threatened at all. Of course, it is impossible for anyone to threaten Mr. Fang.”

“By the way, I talked to him about going to court, but I also explained to him that if he goes to court, I may ask to disclose his web search records, which I think is a necessary operation. , so that the jury can see clearly what kind of person Mr. Fang is on weekdays, is this also a threat?”

In all fairness, publishing web search records should not be considered a threat.

After all, if you want to be a witness, you have to be prepared to be impeached by your character.

Even public browsing records, web browser favorites, etc., are common methods used by defense lawyers to confront prosecution witnesses.

In short, as long as you prove that you are not a good person and that you have problems, then the credibility of your testimony will be affected. This is a routine.

So the conversation between Zhang Wei and Fang Mingming is not strictly a threat.

Of course, it is even more unlikely to constitute a threat witness, because at that time the other party was not a witness.

Zhang Wei’s explanation was that Xu Suyun could not refute it.

She could only secretly say in her heart, this kid is really impeccable.

“But lawyer Zhang did threaten my client, there is no doubt about that!”

At this moment, Xu Zhifeng suddenly stood up and said righteously: “Originally, my client did not need to go to Jincheng Law Firm at all, but out of goodwill, he gave the other party an opportunity and met with lawyer Zhang. There’s a full hour!”

“What threat did he receive during this period that he dared not even perform his duty as a witness for the prosecution? Can you imagine how much psychological pressure he has been under these days?”

“And lawyer Zhang’s reputation has never been very good. Not only does he have the murderous name of ‘murder lawyer’, but he also has an ambiguous relationship with some prosecutors at the local prosecutor’s office.”

“So I implore Judge Ni, please give us a chance to prove whether Lawyer Zhang is doing a lot of evil, and give the citizens of Dongfang a chance to see him clearly, and please give Lang Lang Qiankun an explanation!”

Xu Zhifeng’s last words meant something, an attempt to guide public opinion.

At the hearing booth, the response was intense.

“this…”

Ni Qiuping was a little embarrassed after seeing the expressions of many people in the hearing box.

She glanced at Zhang Wei, then at Xu Zhifeng, and then at the people on the hearing stand.

“This court has decided to agree to the plaintiff’s demands after the allegations in this hearing and its own deliberation. The case will be accepted by this court, and the trial will be held on another day!”

“Wait!”

Just when Ni Qiuping was about to hit the hammer to announce, Zhang Wei suddenly interrupted.

“Lawyer Zhang, the judge has already agreed, so it doesn’t make sense for you to interrupt, right?” Xu Zhifeng is in a good mood now, and he can even sneer.

“No, no!”

Zhang Wei waved his hand, and then said, “I have no opinion on the trial.”

“Judge Ni, my request is very simple. Recently, there is a lot of public opinion about me on the Internet, so I hope the court will include the question of whether the Internet search will affect the impartiality of the jury when screening the jury!”

“We are against it. Hot searches are out of our control. We can only say that Lawyer Zhang behaved badly and was caught by someone!”

Xu Zhifeng immediately objected.

Just kidding, he bought a large part of these hot searches just to influence the jury.

If you told me to ban it, wouldn’t my efforts be wasted?

But Zhang Wei sneered and looked at the bench again: “Judge Ni, I did this for your credibility!”

“For me?” Ni Qiuping was stunned for a moment, his face blank.

“Yes, because I found that there are negative reports about you in the Internet public opinion and hot search headlines!”

“This…” Ni Qiuping immediately winked at the clerk beside him, who took out a notebook from his briefcase, linked to the Internet, and opened the hot search.

“Are city court judges impartial, which is obviously also a question? 》

《Lao Ni? Old Chen? Old Li? A lawyer surnamed Zhang actually has a close attitude with the judge in public? 》

“I heard that the city court has been infiltrated by a certain lawyer, and the entire court is all your own? 》

Swish, all the hot searches on the top have changed and become these articles.

Ni Qiuping’s face turned green when she saw these articles.

and looked at the plaintiff’s seat with suspicion.

Is it your fault? Not only did you use public opinion to attack the defendant, but you also used public opinion to put pressure on our city court?

Xu Zhifeng took out a mobile phone from nowhere at this moment, and also saw the hot search.

He was really innocent this time, because he never thought of attacking the city court or the presiding judge.

I am wronged~

But how he complained in his heart, Ni Qiuping had already made a decision.

“Well, Lawyer Zhang’s request is not unreasonable. This court has approved the negative guidance of the Internet public opinion on the case into the conditions for the jury’s screening and review!”

At this point, Ni Qiuping hammered and announced that the case was accepted.

Zhang Weiwei gave Xu Zhifeng a meaningful look, then left without looking back.

He was complaining in his heart: I still use this kind of routine, I stopped playing it decades ago!

I didn’t expect it, add more
