Chapter 251 The Magician
Zhuzawa's voice echoed in the court. All the materials presented by the lawyer were like a towering mountain weighing heavily on the court, leaving almost no room for the plaintiff to defend himself. As the saying goes, there is nothing better than a mountain of iron-clad evidence. 1
A plagiarist submitted his academic misconduct to the university as a result of his doctoral studies. Is there any reason why he should not make a decision to deprive him of his doctoral degree?
When Miyagawa heard Takezawa's evidence, he pursed his lips, then stood up and said, "The defendant Kyoto University has no sufficient basis for its decision to deprive the doctorate of a doctorate. According to the "Rules for the Award of the Doctor of Science" formulated by the Faculty of Science of Kyoto University, Article 7 clearly states
It stipulates that if the doctoral thesis defense is completed successfully, the Department of Science will award the degree according to regulations. According to the "Rules for Awarding the Doctor of Science Degree", there is only one criterion for deciding whether to award a Doctor of Science degree, and that is whether the plaintiff Mikiko's doctorate degree meets the standards stipulated in the rules of the Faculty.
"
"Plaintiff Mikiko has completed her defense. After being reviewed by professors at the school and experts outside the school, it has been recognized that Mikiko's doctoral thesis has made an important and identifiable contribution to the field of life sciences, and her dissertation has reached the standard."
"Secondly," Miyagawa continued, "the two papers suspected of constituting academic misconduct were not part of the plaintiff Mikiko's doctoral thesis. The core ideas in the two academic papers were not quoted in the doctoral thesis. The two academic papers were also
It was not included as part of the chapter in the plaintiff's doctoral thesis. Accordingly, the paper involving academic misconduct was actually independent of the plaintiff's doctoral thesis. The defendant revoked the doctorate on the grounds that other academic papers written by the plaintiff contained academic misconduct.
The degree is inconsistent with the "Rules for the Award of the Doctor of Science Degree."
Zhuze sneered, flipped the materials on the table, and then raised his head and said, "The rules just mentioned by the plaintiff's attorney are only the rules of the Department of Science. But as a doctoral student in the Department of Life Sciences, the plaintiff must also abide by the rules of the Department of Life Sciences for doctoral degrees.
.According to Article 5 of the "Doctoral Degree Awarding Rules" specified by the Department of Life Sciences, those who are awarded a doctorate should have a considerable academic level and should publish no less than 2 high-level papers while in school."
"According to the regulations, the plaintiff Mikiko wants to graduate from the Department of Life Sciences and obtain a doctorate. In addition to meeting the qualifying requirements for her doctorate, she also needs to publish corresponding papers during her doctoral studies. Therefore, the two papers related to Eucalyptus published by the plaintiff are
The necessary materials required to apply for a doctoral degree."
In an instant, the defendant's attorney's argument once again broke through the plaintiff's lawyer's counterattack.
From a few rows behind the auditorium, faint disdainful voices could be heard.
Every rebuttal from the defendant's attorney only makes this lawsuit seem more ridiculous. A person who actively plagiarized has the nerve to challenge the decision to revoke his degree.
Although Zhuze refuted the opponent's lawyer's attack, he did not feel any joy in his heart. This lawsuit was a waste of life. The two young men opposite were fighting an impossible battle. They did this
What exactly is the purpose?!
Faced with a war that is destined to be won, even a battle-hardened general will begin to relax.

Just when Takezawa relaxed a little and was about to return to his seat——
"Chief referee." Suddenly a male voice sounded.
I saw the young male lawyer opposite taking a step forward again. There was an indescribable smile on his face. If you look at this smile carefully, you will actually feel a bit scared, like
It seems to say: the game has just begun.
Kitahara looked at the two attorneys in the dock and said: "Although graduation from the Department of Life Sciences with a Doctor of Science degree requires the publication of two journal papers. However, during the school year, the plaintiff Mikiko, in addition to the two papers involved, also published
A total of 6 papers were published, which far exceeds the publication length required for normal PhD graduation. Even if the above two papers are excluded, Mikiko still meets the conditions for obtaining a doctorate from Kyoto University."
Probably most people in the court did not expect that the plaintiff's lawyer could actually refute from this angle, and the agitation in the court was inexplicably quiet.
When Zhuze heard this rebuttal, he still dismissed it. This was another unnecessary attack. The female lawyer immediately retorted: "Although the plaintiff published a total of 8 papers during his studies at the university, in the "Ph.D." submitted by the plaintiff to the university
The above-mentioned two papers have been included in the Table of Achievements During Studying. It is enough to see that these two papers are one of the results of the plaintiff’s application for a doctoral degree. Even if the number of papers published exceeds 2, he still needs to bear the liability for fraud in the paper.
Consequential consequences!”
Zhuzawa raised his voice, with a slightly angry look on his face.
She really didn't want to continue to be entangled in this endless unreasonable quarrel.
She decided she had to get a little more serious.
The female agent's words once again dealt a heavy blow to the plaintiff.
The reporters in the two rows behind the auditorium have begun to whisper. This trial is indeed extremely one-sided. If you are trying to defend a plagiarist, you will definitely lose. No matter how much you refute, you will eventually lose.
It's just sophistry.
This trial is just a farce.
It's just a farce.
However, just when everyone thought that this lawsuit was about to fall to one side.
The male lawyer moved, and the next second, his voice rang out in the courtroom, "Chief Judge. Even according to what the defendant's attorney said, Kyoto University still did not lack reasons to deprive my client of his doctorate.
The reason is very simple, as stated in the doctoral degree awarding rules of the Department of Life Sciences mentioned by the defendant’s attorney just now, that is, the so-called thesis must be a published thesis.”
Suddenly, Beihara's words seemed to be torn apart, and his voice continued:
"However, the paper involved in the case has not been published. Although the plaintiff Mikiko has received the so-called publication letter, the paper has not been published in a journal. In this regard, the requirements for public publication of the paper are not met. Therefore, the two so-called articles involved in the case have not been published.
The academic misconduct papers have not been published in journals and are not the results published during the school period as stipulated in the rules for awarding doctorate degrees in the Department of Life Sciences. Therefore, they are not the research results on which the plaintiff obtained the doctorate."
"Therefore, Kyoto University deprived the plaintiff Mikiko of her doctorate degree on the grounds of misconduct in two academic papers, which is inconsistent with the rules for awarding doctorate degrees of the Department of Life Sciences. It did so by claiming that the research results for which she was not awarded a doctorate were unqualified.
There is no sufficient basis for depriving the plaintiff of his doctorate. Therefore, the plaintiff’s attorney requests the court to revoke Kyoto University’s decision to deprive him of his doctorate!”

Beihara's voice echoed in the courtroom.
This male lawyer, like a magician in the trial, suddenly opened the curtain and once again demonstrated the miracle of making the impossible possible...
