: Death to save face and suffer

From the city to the county, there was a long-distance bus. Fang Yi didn't want to waste more time on the road (mainly because the wallet was bulging now). After lunch, he called an online car on his mobile phone. Soon the train arrived downstairs, and the driver called him, and Fang Yi hurried downstairs.

Fang Yi came to a white Jetta car. When he opened the car door, he was stunned. He didn't expect that the driver of the black car was his old acquaintance Wang Deyou.

"Why are you?" Fang Yi said in surprise.

"Come up quickly, you won't let the car stop." Wang Deyou said nervously looking around at the camera.

The Jetta bus got on the road. After driving out of the city, Fang Yi expressed his questions.

"Hey! I don't know what to say, it's embarrassing! Maybe I'm the only one in the city's lawyer circle." Wang Deyou looked ahead with a shame and said.

"You... are not a lawyer anymore?" Fang Yi asked hesitated.

Originally, he wanted to ask Wang Deyou if he had made some mistakes and was fired, but he also felt that Wang Deyou's personality and style of doing things should not be able to do it.

"I'm still working as a lawyer! But there's not so much business in the office and I can't support too many working lawyers. I saw that I was professional and reliable, so I wanted me to continue working as a working lawyer and lay off another female lawyer.

But, I think since there is not much business in the office, we can’t waste it. It’s not our pursuit to get a dead salary all day, so I took the initiative to ask to become a commission lawyer.

I have developed some business during my commission lawyer. Actually... I have been tired after too much business. A few days ago, I was not idle, so busy. Today I have no court or reservations. I happened to have time to go out for a walk, and run a car to earn some pocket money, relax and change my mind." Wang Deyou smiled.

Wang Deyou is a person who wants face. He doesn't want to say in front of his old acquaintance that he was persuaded to leave by the law firm. Because his life is not settled, he drove an online car-hailing car. He wanted to be face-saving and suffered from it. He said that he was a person like Wang Deyou.

"Oh, too, I don't care about the commission lawyers. I have free time. It's good to go out and make some pocket money when I have time." Fang Yiyan said insincerely.

I have a lot of lawyers, so shouldn’t I go out for vacation or go for a trip when I’m tired? I’m afraid the only one who comes out to do work is Wang Deyou.

He also makes pocket money. If he has too much business, he will lack that little pocket money? He can't even make up lies. Although Fang Yi doesn't believe him, he doesn't ask too much. He just sees through it and doesn't say it out loud, and understands it in his heart. Old acquaintances need even more face.

"By the way, how are you doing recently?" Wang Deyou asked without wanting to continue the topic just now.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you that I have transferred to the city to practice and work in Jinshi Law Firm." Fang Yi said.

"Jinshi Law Firm! Not bad! That's a big office. How's the business?" Wang Deyou said in surprise. He kept saying three words and talked about the business again.

"The business is OK. I work as a working lawyer in the team. During this period, our team is recruiting working lawyers. I originally wanted to recommend you... If you are too tired and unhappy to do it yourself, you can consider it! No matter what, congratulations first!" Fang Yi smiled.

Fang Yi said this to give Wang Deyou a step. If Wang Deyou’s business is not good, it will probably not take long to find it. In short, the opportunity has been given to him. Whether he can seize it depends on himself.

"It's great. You finally came to the city. We have to contact you more in the future. By the way, are you free at night? I'll welcome you, congratulations on leaving the county town." Wang Deyou said. He regretted that he was too full just now.

"Okay, I'll go to the county court to get the verdict. I guess I'm about to get off work when I come back, so I won't go back to the office. Let's find a place to have a drink." Fang Yi smiled.

It was almost three o'clock in the afternoon when I arrived at the county court. After calling the clerk, I waited for nearly half an hour before I saw the clerk appearing in the lobby on the first floor with Liu Qiaoling's criminal judgment.

After signing the criminal verdict, Fang Yi couldn't wait to turn to the last page. After seeing the content of the verdict, he frowned.

Back in the Jetta car, Wang Deyou started the car, and Fang Yi dialed it out with his cell phone.

"Lawyer Fang, has the verdict been made?" Liu Qiaoling's voice came from her phone.

"Yes, I just came out of the court and received the verdict. The court found that you did not constitute the crime of theft, but constituted the crime of illegally disposing of the seized property, and the circumstances were serious. You were finally sentenced to commit the crime of illegally disposing of the seized property, and sentenced to two years and six months in prison, probation for two years and six months." Fang Yi said.

"Ah?!" Liu Qiaoling's surprise sounded. Fang Yi had already guessed her expression, and then a bang came from her phone. I don't know if it was someone who fell or something else fell.

"Hey, Ms. Liu! Ms. Liu..." Fang Yi said hurriedly.

"I'm fine, it's the thermos poured down." A panic sound came from the phone. After a moment, Liu Qiaoling asked: "Lawyer Fang, will I be imprisoned by them?"

"No, the court sentences you to two years in prison and two years and six months of probation. There is no need to be imprisoned for probation. Execution is carried out outside the prison." Fang Yi said.

"Oh, that's good, I don't want to go to that place again." Liu Qiaoling felt much better when she heard Fang Yi say this.

"However, it is said that the procuratorate is dissatisfied with the verdict and wants to appeal. So you may have to be in the second instance in this case." Fang Yi said.

"Ah! I have been sentenced to two years, but the procuratorate is still not convinced?... Lawyer Fang, I heard from lawyers that I have appealed before that I will not be sentenced to an additional sentence. The procuratorate is not convinced. The court should not change the sentence to a heavier sentence, right?" Liu Qiaoling said.

"Ms. Liu, what you said is against the defendant without additional sentence of appeal, and the procuratorate's appeal is not subject to the restriction of "no additional sentence of appeal"," Fang Yi explained.

"Ah! Then, is there a great chance of winning in the second trial of my case? Do I want to appeal?" Liu Qiaoling asked in panic.

"I don't think the hope of appeal is particularly great, but if you want to appeal, I can help you appeal." Fang Yi said.

"Oh, how do you charge the lawyer's fee for the second instance?" Liu Qiaoling asked.

Fang Yi thought about the charge of 40,000 yuan in lawyer fees during the first instance, but the second instance could not exceed the first instance fee, so he quoted: "If you do not appeal, you just entrust me to respond, the attorney fee will be 20,000 yuan. If you want to appeal, you need to add another 10,000 yuan."

"Or... I won't appeal. Anyway, it's a probation and it's not a big problem to stop squatting in prison anymore." Liu Qiaoling thought for a moment.

"Okay, let's do it. After you receive the court's notice, call me and we will sign the entrustment procedures and pay the attorney's fee." Fang Yi said.

After hanging up the phone, Fang Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why, the verdict is not ideal?" Wang Deyou asked while driving.
