Chen Zhang?" Yan Suizhi wondered for a moment, "Is that the name of the diving instructor of George Manson's eldest young master? The same person or the same name and surname? What about other information?"
Gu Yan: "That's all for now. "
Are you sure you want to use 'some' to describe the things in my hand?" Yan Suizhi shook the lonely thin imitation paper sheet.
Generally speaking, the legal aid center of the alliance issues a complete letter of entrustment, which will contain three parts –
one is a brief overview of the case, which can explain which case, what nature, the victim's situation and the identity of the party involved.
The second is the documents related to the prosecution, which allows the entrusted lawyer to know the progress of the previous litigation and how much preparation time he has.
The third part is a stamped and signed notice. The notice is generally only a few sentences, and it is also formatted official nonsense.
In addition, when the entrustment letter is sent, the thick case materials will also be delivered together, and the law firm's affairs assistants will collect them and send them to the entrusted lawyers.
This is the most common.
And what Yan Suizhi has now is the solitary "notice" part.
Except for the name of the lawyer and the client, no other farts can be seen.
"Is the document leaked?" Yan Suizhi said.
Gu Yan: "I have asked the affairs assistant to ask."
Yan Suizhi pointed to his pseudonym, "By the way, did you write the wrong person? It's too late to regret it."
"…"
In fact, the Legal Aid Center is not only working In addition to practising barristers, there is also a backup list of all lawyers who are qualified as lawyers but who are in training. It is not that there are no letters of attorney stuffed into the hands of trainee lawyers.
Either there are special circumstances, or the entrustment has been directly rejected by multiple lawyers in a row.
In short, relatively rare.
But Chen Zhang's name is too reminiscent of George Manson and the accident that happened to him.
"Could it be that George Manson's case has been clarified?" After Yan Suizhi guessed, he shook his head again, "No, it's a little too fast."
Gu Yan glanced at the smart clock on the wall of the office. Tianqin Star, where Ba Dao is located, is a famous holiday star. It is very small. There is also a time difference with Decama. It has been five days since I contacted Sheriff Kane last time. It's been a week on Lyra Star.
With the efficiency of the police station on Tianqin Star, it usually takes about fifteen days for a case to go from occurrence to investigation and evidence collection to confirming the suspect. It will take another ten days from identifying the suspect to the prosecution filing a lawsuit, and then to the legal aid center to appoint a lawyer for the defendant.
So whether it's five days or more than a week, in front of such a time period, it's not too long.
Gu Yan thought for a while, and tried to dial Sheriff Kane's communication number. This time it didn't ring for a few seconds before the other party answered.
Neither of them likes to chat and go around in circles, so they went straight to the topic when they opened their mouths.
"What happened to George Manson?"
"Oh, I've been working overtime for the past two days. I forgot to tell you. George Manson is still lying in the rescue cabin. It's hard to say whether he can save it or not. The health foundation is too bad. The Manson family is very strict about this information, and it is inconvenient for me to say more. As for the case, it has been handed over to the higher-level police station, involving the intentional murder of me. After the preliminary investigation results are obtained from the on-site evidence, it must be turned in." Sheriff Kane said, "It has been a few days. The communication numbers of your friends may still be restricted for the time being, but soon, It's just a matter of a day or two."
Kane thought he was simply worried about his friends, so he briefly explained the situation. Regarding the specific development of the case, the higher-level police station has not announced it, so he cannot say it without authorization.
Of course Gu Yan knew this, as well as Kane's temper, so he didn't ask any further questions, just hung up the communication after a few words.
"According to Kane, the case may indeed be closed." Yan Suizhi was a little surprised by the efficiency of the police station this time, "It seems that the Manson family has put a lot of pressure on it."
"It may not be difficult to investigate." Gu Yan said.
Or both.
When the feedback from the affairs assistant was sent to Yan Suizhi, it was already the next morning.
Unfortunately, it happened just in time for the league's preliminary review of the Tier 1 lawyer applicant. Early in the morning, Gu Yan and Hobbs took the shuttle to the planet where the headquarters of the Review Committee was located with the senior affairs officer. They would not be able to come back in three or five days, and this kind of thing was not suitable for taking interns.
"I checked with the center, and it is true that you have no problem with the entrusted object." The affairs assistant explained to Yan Suizhi, "The case information has been integrated overnight, and now I will send it to you and receive it.
" The thick material was spat out of the light's brain, and Yan Suizhi quickly browsed it. Until then, he didn't understand why the police station was so efficient.
After the case of George Manson was handed over to the Lyra Star Third District Police Station, the police officers conducted a second round of inquest and evidence analysis overnight. The suspect quickly pointed to Chen Zhang, George Manson's diving instructor, When excavating his past experience, he found some entanglements with the Manson family and found the motive for the crime.
The most smooth thing about this case is that Chen Zhang didn't do too much sophistry and resistance. The person who was interrogated pleaded guilty on the spot. The content of the two confessions was the same, which saved a lot of trouble.
Coupled with the fact that the Manson family was beeping frantically behind them like urging their lives, this made the George Manson case the fastest case ever solved by the Third District Police Department, so fast that even the police officers themselves Very confused.
As the saying goes, money can make a grinder push a ghost. After the Manson family's high-pressure life-threatening charm finished fighting the police station, he immediately turned his gun and began to fight the prosecution and the court in the third district. George Manson is relieved to have the possibility of reviving only by claiming that the murderer is punished.
If human life is involved, can the prosecution and the court refuse?
Obviously not.
As a result, this layer of high pressure has visibly improved the speed of the entire process. Before the lifting of the ban on other cases related personnel has been completed, the case has reached the link of entrusting a lawyer.
During the whole process, Chen Zhang's attitude was very cooperative in the early stage, but very negative in the later stage, and even gave up the right to independently appoint a lawyer.
So the case went through the legal aid center and fell into the hands of a trainee lawyer.
This intern is Yan Suizhi.
"Nguyen?" Locke, who was also thrown by the teacher, sneaked into the office of Lawyer Gu again in the evening.
Yan Suizhi raised his eyes and said, "Why do you always act like a thief?"
"I heard that you took a case?" Locke's expression was like a weasel seeing a chicken, and he was a little excited.
"Yes." Yan Suizhi nodded.
"What kind of? Is it complicated?"
Yan Suizhi looked at his expression and said cooperatively, "It's quite complicated."
"Really?!" This time the weasel had already stolen the chicken. But soon he sighed again, "Hey—that's great, why didn't anyone give me one with trembling hands?"
He admired for a while, then quickly shifted his attention and said, "By the way, lawyer Gu is not here, You don't have to work overtime tonight, right?"
Yan Suizhi shook his head, "I'm about to pack my things."
"That's right!" Locke said, "The last time you went to Yaba Island was delayed for two days, the one I found for you Wasn't the apartment cut off? I just received a message from the landlord this afternoon, saying that the man who cut off the hu changed his mind, so the apartment is still vacant. If you're all right now, I can just show you. ."
In the past few days, because the residence has not been decided yet, Yan Suizhi is still staying at Gu Yan's place.
It's just that Gu Yan was either in court or on a short business trip in the past few days. He was making up for the delayed work on Yaba Island, and he went back to the law firm several times in between, but he hardly ever lived in his own house, and the two didn't meet much time.
"I'm afraid it won't work today." Yan Suizhi stood up and collected all the case information into Guangnao.
Locke was taken aback: "Ah? Why?"
"I said it just now." Yan Suizhi smiled, "I have to pack my things, the affairs assistant just helped me book the shuttle ticket, I need to go to Tianqin Star tomorrow."
"Go to the sky . What is Qin Xing doing?" Locke was still at a loss.
Yan Suizhi flicked his brain lightly with his fingers, and said, "The case assigned to me because of that trembling hand."
"So soon?!" Locke said, "Aren't you waiting for Lawyer Gu to come back? Let him help you anyway. Get ready. I heard from a senior who graduated that he participated in the trial independently for the first time, and he behaved in a mess, blushing so much that he could fry an egg, double-sided."
"…"
Professor Yan Da may not know what it feels like to blush in his life. .
He boasted casually: "Oh? It's interesting, it's full of energy."
Locke: "…"
"Are you really going to go alone?" Locke asked again.
In that tone, it seemed that what Yan Suizhi was going to was not the court but Huangquan Avenue.
"Yeah." Yan Suizhi snorted with a smile, put on a coat and tied a scarf, and said, "I can't wait for Lawyer Gu, the court session is a bit tight here."
"When is the court session?"
"Next week." The Way of Yansui.
"Isn't that a few days?" Locke exclaimed, "Why are you in such a hurry? It doesn't make sense! We have arranged for a trainee lawyer, and we only have a few days to prepare. Isn't that a sure thing to lose?"
After speaking, he paused. For a moment, as if he suddenly understood something, he said, "Ah… Could it be…"
Why does the assistance center find a trainee lawyer with trembling hands?
Said to be rejected by the barrister many times, maybe…
After all, defending the suspect, in the eyes of those people, is against the victimized Manson family, and there must be many people who are not happy.
But in such a short time, how many lawyers did they ask?
It is more likely that the Manson family put the pressure on the police court and pointed the arrow at the assistance center, so the assistance center simply did what they wanted and gave up the experienced and risky barristers, and turned to the backup center. Curry picked a trainee lawyer.
Ruan Ye's resume under this identity is not even two lines together, at first glance, it is a mess, and it is suitable.
Yan Suizhi had not seen this kind of situation of using trainee lawyers to perfunctory to block trouble, so he understood a thing or two at a glance.
He also confirmed with Fitz in the afternoon that in the database of the assistance center, his intern status was under the name of Lawyer Moore, because the Southern Cross Law Firm acquiesced that Gu Yan was a temporary teacher, while More The lawyer's limelight is not very high, and his intern is nothing special.
Locke was stunned for a long time with his mouth open, and then he said, "So looking for a trainee lawyer… You are expected to lose?!"
Yan Suizhi glanced out through the floor-to-ceiling windows behind the desk, and could feel it before he went out. The chill of the glass. He pulled the scarf to cover his chin, tilted the corner of his mouth and said, "Yeah, are you still envious?"
Locke almost shook his head off, "No, no, you…hey…you take care.
" The next morning, Yan Suizhi took the light brain and simple luggage and got on the shuttle to Lyra Star.
Going on a business trip alone was really familiar to him. He was so familiar that he almost forgot that he was still an intern. Most importantly, he forgot to report to the teacher.
Professor Yan Da has lived for so many years, and he has never been in the habit of reporting to others. He didn't realize it for a while.
Until I received a communication on the shuttle.
Seeing the careful mint jumping on the screen, Yan Suizhi hesitated for two seconds, feeling a little guilty for no reason, but it disappeared in a blink of an eye.
He coughed, connected to the communication, opened his mouth and said confidently: "I was looking for you, but you are very good at picking time."
Very calm.
Gu Yan on the other end of the communication: "…"
Liar?
But with such a blockage, Lawyer Gu could only follow the words: "What's the situation in the case?"
There were not many people flying shuttle this time, and the seat next to Yan Suizhi was vacant, but he still did not talk on this occasion. hobby, so I said the key points in a few words, I believe that the other party can understand what they should understand.
Under the Joint Review Committee Building, the senior affairs officer held a cup of coffee and handed another cup to Gu Yan.
Gu Yan wore ear clasps, opened the small lid of the coffee cup, and gave a low "um", simply answering the person on the other end of the communication.
Until someone's comment about the aid center came from the ear button: "Persimmons are especially soft to pinch."
"…"
Attorney Gu choked a sip of coffee in his throat.
"Eh? What's wrong?" The senior affairs officer frowned at him and coughed a few times, "Why did you choke? You caught the wind?"
Gu Yan waved his hand, and when he raised his face, his expression was gone. , "It's nothing, I heard some nonsense." After he finished speaking, he hung up the communication before waiting for someone in the ear button to respond.
The persimmons are specially selected for soft pinch… In the end, Yan Suizhi was picked.
Really have an eye.
