What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Chapter 509

?Chapter 509: Chapter 173 You got the school leaders sent in, and you want the school to pay for it?_4 Chapter 509: Chapter 173 You got the school leaders sent in, and you want the school to pay for it?_4 But that money was a bit too much, mainly the cost of gathering evidence.

Two thousand military training uniforms, ah, even though they had been discounted, the purchasing and authentication costs had almost reached two hundred thousand, not to mention attorney fees.

How could we pay such an amount?

It simply wouldn’t be approved, so we had no choice but to go to court.

Time slowly passed by in the waiting, until the Xihong District Court finally reconvened and made a ruling on the spot.

Liu Zixu had not committed any defamation, on the contrary, Jingzhou City Vocational and Technical College was found guilty of filing a false lawsuit and was ordered to compensate Liu Zixu for the reasonable expenses incurred in the lawsuit.

This time, all of the attorney fees were supported, but the authentication fees were prudently considered, as the court deemed it unnecessary to go to such lengths.

Even just evaluating half would have provided enough evidence.

Therefore, the court prudently ordered Jingzhou Vocational and Technical College to compensate Liu Zixu for the related losses of two hundred and thirty thousand yuan!

Dong Wenlu’s face on the plaintiff’s bench showed bitterness; she had lost this case too thoroughly.

But then again, she still had to make money.

“Judge Chief, should we consider filing an appeal?”

The deputy chief on the side, who’d come to court, said angrily, “Of course, we should appeal.

Why should the school pay for his attorney’s fees and whatever authentication fees?

Go to ?????.co

It was the previous leadership who made the decision to sue.

Did they know about the poor quality of the military training uniforms?

Nobody was clear on that, right?

Is a judgment like this even lawful?”

Dong Wenlu did not speak.

It’s common for a new official not to acknowledge old debts, but it still was quite rare for someone like this deputy chief to voice it out loud.

As a unit leader, every decision made can be considered a decision made by the institution.

When the judgment had been read out, Dong Wenlu stood and announced, “We have decided to…”

Before the word “appeal” even left her mouth, the Judgment Chief up above directly interrupted, “The defendant, please sit down first.

I am not finished here yet.”

With that, he pulled out another document and began, “This is the punishment decision from the Xihong District Court against Jingzhou Vocational and Technical College!”

Although guilty of filing a false lawsuit, the court believed the infractions to be significantly minor, and thus, the Xihong District Court decided to impose a fine of fifty thousand yuan on the college!

Under normal circumstances, such a fine would certainly come with detention, but…

detention couldn’t be carried out, as those who had made the decision were under investigation by the Disciplinary Inspection Department.

As the words fell, Dong Wenlu’s complexion turned stark white, and she quickly said to the deputy chief beside her, “Let’s not appeal after all.”

The court had already recognized that they did indeed engage in false litigation and had decided to impose a fine.

This clearly indicated that if they did not accept it, it would be tantamount to snubbing the grace given.

The consequences of snubbing grace could lead to the transfer to the public security organs…

The vice principal looked confused; they had lost the court case today and also been fined fifty thousand by the court?

Although he was only acting in charge, there was great hope of advancing further.

Now, the vice principal felt his future was completely dark.

Old Tang had already stood up, quite satisfied with the outcome.

Some people, you know, as school leaders, want to bear down on any issue they encounter.

Well, this time, the issue was indeed suppressed, but along with that, they themselves got dragged down, and now the school had to pay up as well.

Was this effective?

Of course, it was, as their actions had caused harm to the school’s interests; at the very least, it would certainly serve some purpose at the time of sentencing.

Soon, Old Tang returned to Tengda, and he was ready to start making the video.

Just as Liu Zixu was being defamed online by the school’s organized manpower, it was now his turn to disclose the real situation.

“Hello to all viewers, I am Tang Fangjing.

Recently, a video went viral online about the poor quality of military training uniforms, which then led to all sorts of incidents, resulting in the video uploader being accused of spreading nonsense.”

“Here’s what actually happened: after the blogger posted the video, the school warned him, threatened to discipline him, even expel him.

Then, when he posted another status update, the school refused to process his withdrawal…”

The video that accompanied this narration was of the initial announcement by the school after Liu Zixu submitted a withdrawal application, claiming to contact the student to continue his studies.

“Think about it, viewers.

At first, the school told the blogger that even if he stayed, they would never let him graduate.

With that being said, if the school refused to let him withdraw, do you think he would dare stay?”

“Of course not.

Who knows what would happen if he stayed.

The school could find any excuse not to graduate him, leaving him helpless.

Then the blogger reached out to me, hoping I could help him withdraw from the school.”

“I happened to be free, and since the incident occurred in Jingzhou, I decided to step in and help out.

Now, there’s a result, although it’s slightly different from what they had requested…”

Next, Old Tang started explaining the specific process of defending rights, starting with the right to know and why he filed a suit based on this right.

“The reason for such a lawsuit is simple: I wanted to know their bidding process, the name of the company that sold the military uniforms, and the agreed-upon price between them.”

“With that information, the next steps could begin…”

What follows naturally is collecting the uniforms and authenticating them, which requires no technical skill, only money.

“Then, it’s time to contact the police.

The military uniform company’s boss is still under investigation, and just this one sale might mean three years pressing a sewing machine, assuming no other issues are discovered.”

Chances are there will be, since this definitely wasn’t the first time between the two parties.

“And then there’s the school leadership.”
