What's wrong with this lawyer?!-Chapter 630 - 199: Some People Go Too Far!_4
Huang Licheng hurriedly began to dig out materials from the bag beside him; since he had come to defend his rights, he carried all these documents with him.
Old Tang took two court decisions, the first was from the court of Pingchen County, and the second was from Lincheng City Court.
After carefully reading both court decisions, Old Tang finally understood the situation.
"Mr. Huang, I see in this court decision that when you pulled out your knife, those people you clashed with actually didn’t have weapons, right?"
Huang Licheng nodded, "That’s right, Lawyer Tang."
"Does the decision say that you had prepared the knife in advance?"
"I had prepared it in advance. The village had already called a meeting to say they were taking back the land. I went several times to talk to the village chief, but he ignored me."
"I have relatives in the village too, and they told me that the village was going to bulldoze my orchard. At that point, I felt I had no choice and figured I would fight to the death with anyone who tried to push down my trees, so I prepared a knife ahead of time..."
Old Tang shook his head; it was these details that marked the peculiarities of a criminal case.

In the morning, Huang Licheng hadn’t mentioned the knife he had prepared in advance, nor had he said that those men were unarmed.
Indeed, there had to be a reason why this case was adjudicated as guilty in the first instance and then upheld on appeal.
Just like with the previous cases of obstruction of official duties, unless it is proven that the official duties are not legitimate, the court will certainly presume they are legitimate when giving a judgment.
Looking at Tang Fangjing, Huang Licheng hesitated before speaking, "Lawyer Tang, I didn’t mean to hide these things... it’s just that I feel it’s not fair."
"You see, growing fruit trees isn’t like you plant them and they immediately bear fruit. My orchard... they were bulldozing it right during the peak fruit-bearing period. I had invested a lot, and they didn’t even talk about compensation before saying they were taking back the land and immediately started bulldozing."
"The village committee chief is too overbearing. He wanted to lease that land to one of his relatives, which is why he raised the rent on me. Lawyer Tang, I really didn’t want to do it; I truly had no other choice..."
"I have two children in school, and an elderly mother to look after. That orchard is my family’s lifeline..."
Perhaps because he had reached a painful part of his story, Huang Licheng wiped his eyes. Life was really too hard for farmers.
Going to the city to work, they encounter all sorts of situations where wages are withheld. If the client doesn’t pay up, they can only hope the contractor will cover it. If the contractor can’t bear it, then that’s the end of the road.
And if they don’t go to the city and just farm in the village, it’s still tough. Slogging away for a whole year and barely earning any money, and if they run into any freak weather, that’s it, they’re done.
And then there are the village cadres who bully people in all sorts of ways...
Some people always feel village cadres are very minor and seem insignificant, but they should know that some village cadres have embezzled millions, and it’s not just a few of them.
So much so that for a while, people jokingly referred to village cadres as "little tigers," in contrast to the big tigers.
Wang Qingqing came in with water and, seeing the situation, didn’t dare to speak. Behind the desk, Old Tang was also in silence; sometimes it really wasn’t that he, Old Tang, liked to meddle too much, it was just that some people went too far!
Exercising a bit of power recklessly, they oppress people mercilessly!
Without any surprise, a new mission had appeared on the system panel!
"Mission Target": use legal means to teach the corrupt village cadres a lesson!
"Mission Reward": 50% completion rewards three days of life.
100% completion rewards one month of life.
Completion 200%, reward: one year of life!
Once again, he saw a task with the basic life reward of one year.
In the previous few cases, the basic rewards were only six months...
Most crucially, there was mention of a ’black heart’... Not bad, the system sometimes really had the courage.
Old Tang no longer hesitated, "Huang Licheng, right? I’ll take your case."
"I know you’re out of money right now, but that’s okay, in a moment you can apply for legal aid. Your court of second instance is Lincheng City Intermediate Court, but now we need to start a retrial from the high court, so Jingzhou Legal Aid Center can provide you with legal assistance, don’t worry."
"I only have one requirement, that is, you must follow my lead on the case, no matter what we encounter, we have to see it through to the end, okay?"
Huang Licheng was immediately excited, he couldn’t believe that Lawyer Tang was actually going to help him!
Moreover, he directly told him to go through the legal aid process, which was almost unbelievable to Huang Licheng.
"Lawyer Tang, no problem, I’ll do whatever you say. In my situation, I’m not even afraid to die, so why would I fear them? Let’s go all out!"
Old Tang smiled. That was the exact response he wanted. People who had been through the prison ordeal were steadfast in this respect, no doubt about it.
As for the case, although he hadn’t found anything in the judgment, he already had a clue.
"Huang Licheng, I’m going to ask you one last question. When you were being forcibly taken away, those cranes and such were already in place, right?"
"Yes, everything was in place, and they even directly hooked up the fruit trees at the entrance of the orchard..."
"Good, good, let’s go then, I’ll take you to the legal aid center."
Soon after, Old Tang took Huang Licheng all the way to Jingzhou City Legal Aid Center, and then called Director Zhang.
"Elder Zhang, I’m here, this time I’ve brought you a great performance, no doubt about it, don’t you trust me? I’m telling you, this case is very interesting!"
"And, it may even set a new precedent in our Handong!" Find adventures at novelbuddy
...
In Yashi Company, Deng Erfeng said to Lao Niu in front of him, "Want me to speed up? How can I speed up, the company has no money right now, not a single penny, let them enforce it!"
Everyone is told there’s no money because the money is in the supervised account. If the court is powerful enough, let them enforce the money from the supervised account, let’s see if they’ve got the ability.
As for the company’s own accounts, there really is no money, which is quite reasonable.
Elder Niu hesitated before speaking, "General Manager Deng, the other side is Tang Fangjing after all. Maybe we should back down, otherwise they are sure to make a fuss..."
"Make a fuss? What can Tang Fangjing do, we are acting legally. Unless he can get the supervised account to release our money, those four hundred thousand aren’t a big deal. The key is they can’t get it out. What can I do?"
Elder Niu no longer spoke. He felt that it was better to resign sooner rather than later, as the company was beginning to spring leaks everywhere and could be capsized any day.
After all, he was not in finance, so he was really curious about the company’s current situation, whether it was the parent company that was siphoning funds, or something else, that caused such a poor cash flow.
But it no longer concerned him. Even if it meant forgoing compensation, he was ready to leave. This Deng Erfeng had no real skills, only knew how to handle money, he was destined for prison sooner or later!
