Blackstone Code

Chapter 971: Mr. Lynch is a moral role model

Seeing the scene returned to control, Momoti asked a very critical question, "So this time, how do you plan to deal with those who can't afford the indemnity?"

"Not everyone can take out so much money at once. If the court enforces it, they will lose their car and house."

Lynch nodded naturally, "Punishment is not to make people hurt, but to let them understand why and where they went wrong, and to give them a chance to make up for their mistakes."

"That's why I didn't choose to withdraw the lawsuit. They were wrong after all."

"I can be tolerant to them, but the premise is that it is not their sin to tolerate!"

"Next, if someone can't afford the money, we will have a dedicated person to talk about it."

Mo Mo asked in time, "How to talk?"

"Within the range that everyone can accept, while allowing them to receive education, they can also easily pay back the money..."

At the same time, in an ordinary house in an ordinary neighborhood of Buppen, the owner sits nervously at the table, his wife is standing behind him, and the child is in the bedroom on the second floor, facing through the crack in the door. Look downstairs.

Opposite the owner of the house, a lawyer was sitting, "... Sir, I am the legal specialist at all times. This is my business card, the company's authorization letter..."

Some legal documents are placed on the table, which is much more professional than the salesperson who went to the store to promote "litigation" last time.

Perhaps it was the last time when the shopkeeper looked at it carefully and seriously, and also asked some small questions, all of which were answered.

Finally, he pushed back all the documents, looking at the opposite legal officer with a nervous expression.

After the young legal officer gathered up the materials, he continued, "I believe you have consulted a lawyer after the trial is over?"

The owner nodded. After losing the case, they immediately joined the other shopkeepers and went to a more prestigious law firm in Buppen to consult about the case.

The cost of 300 yuan an hour is really not cheap, but it also represents considerable professionalism. The lawyer who received them told them directly that there was no hope of winning this case.

Unless, they can find the direct evidence of the knowledge of the company at all times when the person who cheated their counter was found, such as finding those scammers, or what documents they have.

Otherwise, it is impossible for them to link the two events together. As long as they cannot be linked together, they can be regarded as two isolated events that are not necessarily related, without any connection.

They just breached the contract, for whatever reason.

They can sue those scammers again, and if they can find it, they can pass on their losses to those scammers, and let the scammers compensate for their losses.

Someone asked whether it was possible to continue the appeal and link the two cases together without evidence.

After all, everyone can see that there is more or less something to do with it.

Even the blind can see it.

The lawyer's answer still made them desperate. The federal courts emphasize factual evidence, and there must be a complete chain of evidence.

This is like Lynch’s money laundering at the beginning. Everyone knows that the money was laundered by his hands, but why can’t the police and the Bureau of Investigation catch him?

Because there is no evidence, if "everyone knows" can be used as a basis for facts and become "evidence" with legal benefits, the federation would have long been messed up.

You say he is, so what about the evidence?

At that time, they used marked coins as the most important link in the chain of evidence. As long as it can be proved that the money flowing out of the Bureau of Investigation entered Old Fox's laundry room through Lynch's hand, the chain of evidence is complete.

It proves that the flow of funds is in line with people’s guesses, and there is an exact factual basis to support the judgment of the Bureau of Investigation, which completes the chain of evidence.

But if not, nothing will work!

This is a country that pays attention to evidence, and you have to show evidence.

It sounds like it is embarrassing or protecting certain people. In fact, it is protecting the bottom of society from the wanton plunder of those in power. But from the perspective of the people at the bottom of society, it turns out that the upper-level people evade the law. The weapon of sanctions.

Sometimes you don't know whether to be sad or happy for those people's stupidity.

The lawyers also told them that once they fail to appeal, it is likely to cause more unnecessary troubles, such as punitive fines.

This punitive fine is proposed by the lawyer, and if the judge supports it, it will be realized.

It is often used by the party to protest. For example, in the case of conclusive evidence, the offender never pleads guilty, does not accept the trial result, continues to protest, and appeals. This can be regarded as a blasphemy against the law, which is extremely bad. act.

The plaintiff’s lawyer on the other party can propose a punitive fine as a warning and a more serious punishment to warn the defendant and the world, telling them that the court is not a place for nonsense.

So far, there have been more than a dozen cases of punitive appeals supported by the federal government. The amount involved in these cases is not high, perhaps hundreds of thousands of dollars, but the punitive fines are often more than 100,000, or even millions. !

It is to be punished until the heartache, and no one will do stupid things in the same case in the future!

The lawyers do not recommend that they continue to appeal or protest. The best way is to hand in the money when they are not exhausted at all times, and the matter will be over.

Less than one hundred thousand yuan, it is impossible to catch oneself for a lifetime.

Moreover, no lawyer is willing to fight this kind of lawsuit that must be lost. If they can't get the support of a lawyer, it means that they will definitely lose. If they lose this time, the money to be paid may exceed 100,000.

With a heavy heart, I returned home and thought about how to collect the money-not that I didn't want to resist, but there was really no way to resist. Everyone in the Federation was on the side of the capitalists.

Courts, banks, and police investigation bureaus usually speak for the capitalists. Now that the capitalists are still reasonable, they will not speak for themselves as ordinary people.

Eighty thousand yuan is not a small amount. The shop owner himself has almost 10,000 yuan in cash, which is urgently needed and stocked.

The rest are all the merchandise in the store, which is probably worth about 20,000 yuan, maybe not even close.

In the afternoon, he went to the bank for consultation. His car was worthless, and the bank gave him a mortgage of up to 600 yuan.

But his house is worth a little money, and the bank is willing to give 35,000 yuan, but if he mortgages the house, the situation will become very dangerous.

Just as they were considering whether they could borrow some money from other people, people came to the door every moment.

The legal officer looked at the couple and the individual, "Please don't be so nervous, we are just chatting, if we can solve some problems by the way, it would be better."

"Let us talk first, do you have the ability to pay this compensation?"

The wife's hand on her husband's shoulder grasped it tightly and then loosened it. Her tightly closed lips lost their blood color, making her look unhealthy.

The shopkeeper shook his head, "I can't get these all at once. If I can wait for a period of time for my turnover, I will dispose of some of the goods in the store and borrow some more..."

"Excuse me!" The legal officer tapped the table twice with his fingers, "Don't be too nervous, we will not force you to make any decisions that are not good for you. That is what capitalists do."

"Mr. Lynch won't allow us to do that. That's why I came here."

"If you do what you said, your shop will definitely not be able to continue operating, right?"

The shopkeeper nodded bitterly. All the things in his hand were gone, and the money was gone. The purchase became a problem. There was also the rent of the store. He might have to find a job to support his family. This is not a simple matter. choose.

"Look, that's why I'm here." The owner was somewhat surprised by the words of the legal officer.

"I don't quite understand what you mean, sir.", he said.

"Mr. Lynch is kind and generous. If your funds are very difficult, we will lend you money to compensate for the fines in this lawsuit."

"Probably... Eighty-one thousand three hundred fifty-four yuan and twenty-two cents. We will lend you the money, and then you will have the money to pay the compensation."

The shopkeeper was a little dazed, "This...I don't understand too much."

"This is Mr. Lynch's tolerance and help!"

"Your current work and life, including your living environment, will not change in any way, and this debt will be repaid in long-term installments, which is longer than the bank's maturity!"

The legal officer took out another piece of information and put it on the table, "We made a variety of installments for it, and the most important thing is that there is no interest..."

The shopkeeper's eyes lit up slightly, "No interest, are you sure sir?"

"I'm sure!", the legal officer gave a very positive answer, "but it has some small handling fees, you know, so many of us are busy, and you occupy the company's working capital, these needs Have something to pay."

The shopkeeper's expression is not as good as before, "What's the difference between that and interest?"

"Of course there is. If you can pay back all the money next month, we don't need any handling fee, but the interest is different~lightnovelpub.net~ It starts from the first second you get the money."

"The sooner you pay it off, the lower the fee. If you drag it for a lifetime, it will definitely not be so cheap."

"In other words, if you think you can repay the money as soon as possible, the advantage of handling fees is very obvious. If you want to use interest lending, we can also do it...",

"The most important point..." The legal officer smiled cordially, "We won't give you a deadline that you can't bear like the bank does, and then kick you out of your house!"

The shopkeeper was silent for a while, and he could not choose, but before making a decision, he should find out.

"If, I mean if, I plan to sign this contract with you, how is it performed?"

"What are my responsibilities, what are my obligations, how much do I have to give you every month?"

He swears, just ask, he doesn't necessarily choose this!
