What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Chapter 258: Chapter 118: The Law Must Not Yield to the Unlawful!

Wu Xiaozhen stood there, her face full of dissatisfaction, feeling the situation was unfair.

"On what grounds? Just because your son threw the first punch, you ask on what grounds?" Che Quanzhong was not one to indulge her, "If you feel aggrieved, you can apply for administrative reconsideration or initiate an administrative lawsuit!"

Yu Erming shouted upon hearing this, "But he was the one who wouldn't let me through first, so people can't make mistakes now?"

"Mistake in the way, then you could have taken a detour up front, that's not a reason for you to cut in line. I'll say it again, if you're not satisfied, you can apply for administrative reconsideration, or file an administrative lawsuit!"

After speaking, Che Quanzhong approached Tang Fangjing and Ju Haiqing, saying, "Ju Haiqing, the fine is 200 yuan. Are you going to pay now or some other time?"

Upon hearing this, Ju Haiqing said, "It's only 200 yuan, that's nothing. But him beating me up like this, what about that? Doesn't he have to pay for the medical expenses?"

Yu Erming screamed from the side, "Then you don't have to pay for beating me up like this?"

Seeing that the two were about to argue again, Che Quanzhong could only say, "You were fighting each other, understand? Medical fees are compensated mutually. We asked you to mediate earlier, but you refused, now sort it out yourselves."

Upon hearing this, Ju Haiqing turned to Tang Fangjing, and Old Tang waved his hand, saying, "So, Officer, this is how the matter is being handled, right?"

"Lawyer Tang, that's right. You know the administrative penalty decision has already been made, and it cannot be changed, and it's just a 200 yuan fine anyway."

Otherwise, three days of administrative detention, 200 yuan fine, which one do you choose? Any sensible person would know what to pick.

Old Tang then approached Yu Erming, "Let me confirm with you one more time, you mean to say there's no way you'll compensate for the medical expenses, right?"

At that, Yu Erming flatly replied, "I won't compensate. If you're so powerful, go ahead and sue, and let the court decide."

As if hiring a lawyer was something only they were capable of.

He was about to be administratively detained, what did he have to fear, what more could happen to him.

"Alright, then I understand clearly." Old Tang nodded politely, "Then, Officer, we will be on our way. We will discuss the fine when we get back."

What's there to discuss over a measly 200 yuan?

Che Quanzhong wanted to say a few more words, but Old Tang and Ju Haiqing had already left.

When they reached the car, Old Tang asked, "So the situation is like this now, what are your plans?"

Staring with wide eyes, Ju Haiqing said, "Lawyer Tang, it isn't about the 200 yuan. It's that I feel aggrieved. I was cut in line, beaten, and in the end, they say it was a fight, and now I'm being fined."

"I can't accept this!"

A smile flashed briefly across Old Tang's face, "So what you're saying is, you don't want to pay the fine, and you also feel the punishment for the other party is too lenient, right?"

"Yes, too lenient. People who want to cut in line and resort to violence when they can't—are they going to behave after just an administrative detention? Look at how that guy spoke just now." Ju Haiqing said with great dissatisfaction.

"Okay, since you've said this, I'll start with the procedures for you."

As he spoke, Old Tang looked towards the police station, "I've never sued a police station in Jingzhou before, it's like a practice run."

"As for Yu Erming, don't worry about him, we need to take things step by step."

Old Tang returned to Tengda and began preparing the materials. The facts of the case were actually very clear—the dashcam footage was exceptionally complete evidence.

As Ju Haiqing had said, a fine of 200 yuan was nothing; even if it were 20,000 yuan, it wouldn't pose much of a problem for him.

What was really bothering him was the indignation he felt. Writing novels full of swift justice and vendettas, and yet in reality, he was left feeling so stifled that he couldn't let it go!

When the client expresses a need, the lawyer naturally has to act, and this is called professionalism.

Administrative actions can be challenged with an administrative lawsuit, so Old Tang began drafting the complaint right away. Your next journey awaits at m v|l-e'-NovelBin.net

It wasn't that he thought administrative reconsideration was unfit, it's just that he preferred courts.

In administrative reconsideration, you simply send the relevant materials to the reconsideration body and then, within the specified time, the reconsideration body will respond to you.

Whether the relevant administrative actions will be withdrawn, along with the facts and reasons.

He could never meet the people making the reconsideration decision, nor could he debate with them.

However, courts are different. When a court files a case for trial, the administrative body's representatives must appear in court. At least then he could see someone in person and debate on the spot.

So this was purely a habit of Old Tang's.

The administrative lawsuit petition is almost the same as a civil one, except the defendant becomes the administrative body, and its legal representative is the head of the administrative body.

With the facts and reasons, Old Tang believed that the police station's judgement was incorrect. This shouldn't be deemed mutual combat; it was clearly intentional harm and self-defense!

After finalizing the preparation, Old Tang picked up his briefcase and set off towards the People's Court of Xihong District.

The jurisdiction of administrative cases had undergone several adjustments, but generally, they were all aimed at facilitating the court's review and enforcement of the cases.

If it was a government administrative action, you definitely had to go to the intermediate court, because a basic-level court's judgement might not be enforceable...

But with other department's administrative actions, you could go to the basic-level court.

At the entrance of the People's Court of Xihong District, Old Tang entered nonchalantly, still going through the registration and queuing process. Upon reaching the window, he recognized the staff member inside.

"Hey, Lawyer Tang, you... you're here again?" The staff member sounded a bit curious, "Another case?"

"It's still about the previous matter. Here are the materials," he said.

As he spoke, Old Tang handed over the materials.
