What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Chapter 820: Chapter 263 Who Summoned Tang Fangjing Again!

Registering on forms, swiping identity cards, the necessary procedures must be followed.

Now entering the court, whether it’s a lower court or not, you’re required to go through all this; after all, the court needs to know what you’re here for.

Having completed everything, Old Tang stepped into the Provincial High Court and had only walked a few steps when he recognized someone familiar ahead, talking on the phone.

“I know it’s urgent, I’ve just left the High Court, I’ll be there soon, calm down, I’ll be quick…”

At first, he hesitated to recognize him, but upon hearing the voice, Old Tang immediately called out:

“Director Han?”

The person ahead turned around, ending the call, and with a face filled with surprise said, “Ah, Director Tang, long time no see!”

Old Han was genuinely surprised; the last time he had seen Old Tang was outside the Women’s Federation building when Old Tang was doused in gasoline, and they hadn’t met since.

Knowing that Old Tang had returned, he had been thinking about how to meet, but no opportunities arose.

Unexpectedly, fate intervened, and today he had run into Old Tang at the High Court!

What do we call this? It’s fate!

It seems predestined that Tang Fangjing will work alongside Han Chengli.

The female assistant behind Old Han twitched her lips, no wonder the rumors were rampant back at the office, claiming that Director Han and Tang Fangjing from Tengda were the true love story…

Facing Old Han’s enthusiasm, Old Tang also found it a bit unbearable: “What are you doing in the High Court?”

“I’m here for a criminal case, preparing to apply for a retrial,” casually said Old Han, “It’s a rape case, what about you, Director Tang? Who are you planning to put behind bars this time?”

“Han Chengli, why would you falsely accuse someone so indiscriminately? As a lawyer, how could I ‘put someone behind bars’? They brought it upon themselves,” Old Tang responded, eyes wide.

It’s simply outrageous. He doesn’t have the power to incarcerate people; it’s their own actions that do!

If they weren’t actually guilty, no matter how skilled he was, he couldn’t possibly fabricate charges against someone.

Old Han quickly said, “Alright, alright, you’ve never incarcerated anyone, so what case brings you to the High Court?”

While speaking, Old Han twisted open his water bottle to drink some tea, but then he heard the man across say:

“This time it’s just a case where someone got classified as creating disturbances during a visit to The Capital, it’s nothing…”

Pfft! Old Han turned his head and accidentally spurted tea onto his female assistant’s face.

The female assistant pointed at Old Han but remained silent, quietly pulling out a tissue to wipe the tea off her face.

You could have easily sprayed that in front of you, but had to turn towards me instead, the female assistant thought in various complaints. Old Han was really overbearing; she would have resigned long ago if circumstances were different.

After spraying, Old Han still couldn’t help but say, “What did you say? You still dare to say…”

However, Old Han saw Old Tang’s expression and forcefully stopped himself from finishing, “You still dare to say you don’t want to incarcerate people.”

To put it bluntly, no one would touch such a case!

At least Old Han himself would definitely not take on such cases.

Firstly, they are troublesome, not just the matters, but the clients themselves are troublesome; you never know what they are like. What if you fail to resolve their issue and they turn around and report you?

Not to mention they might not even have the money to pay for lawyer fees, and given the special nature of the cases, the fees wouldn’t be cheap.

Secondly, it’s dangerous. Who knows what kind of stories are hidden inside? If a lawyer gets too shallowly involved, it’s purely about swindling money.

But if a lawyer gets too involved, they might end up incarcerated themselves…

Old Tang wasn’t surprised by Old Han’s reaction. Indeed, such types of cases existed, but many of them relied on public opinion.

In some cases, the petitioners did indeed create disturbances, but that doesn’t mean every case was like that; the situations varied greatly.

So truthfully speaking, no one could handle these types of cases better than himself.

He absolutely wasn’t afraid of any retaliation; if Lincheng really had the nerve, they’d try to take him down too, which would certainly be thrilling!

“Ahem, Director Han, I should go in first. You attend to your matters.”

Old Han hurriedly said, “I’m free now anyway, I’ll come in with you.”

The female assistant hesitated for a moment but eventually spoke, “Director, lawyer Shang is waiting for you back at the office, it’s quite urgent…”

Her words were cut off by Old Han pulling her aside: “Urgent? What’s so urgent? You go back and tell him to wait, I have important matters here!”

After saying this, he hurried a few steps to catch up with Old Tang, still pondering that this assistant isn’t making the cut, not able to prioritize, what use is such an assistant.

Regarding Old Han’s behavior clinging like a sandwich, Old Tang was helpless.

At the very least, they could be considered friends; one couldn’t just tell him to leave. Since he was willing to follow, then let him.

The two thus went inside together, with Old Tang submitting the retrial application at the counter.

The staff at the counter had already noticed Old Tang; his face was now instantly recognizable in Handong Province, especially within the court system.

The last scenario was precisely because of the retrial from the High Court that kicked off that major drama in Lincheng.

Thus, when the staff member saw the retrial application, his heart skipped a beat, Lincheng again!

Looking at the contents of the application, the staff member’s scalp began to tingle.

This… this seems eerily similar to the previous scenario; one case opens up and then a flood of cases follow, and then…
