Tokyo Barrister: Start the law firm bankruptcy

Chapter 362
"Lawyer Beiyuan, withdraw the lawsuit." Xia Chuan looked at the man beside him who had just returned from outside the court, and said, "When the judge comes in, hand over the application to her. Things have gotten to this point, we But the lawsuit is about to be withdrawn. It's really...really causing trouble for everyone."

Beiyuan nodded, and lightly stroked the application form on the desktop, "But, Teacher Shimogawa, I have to remind you. According to the provisions of the "Civil Procedure Law", after the court debate is over, if the plaintiff files an application for withdrawal, if the defendant does not Agree, then the court can still continue the trial and make a judgment."

Hearing these words, Shimogawa smiled wryly, "Lawyer Beiyuan, are you joking? How is this possible? If we file a withdrawal application, the other party must be eager to agree immediately."

Bei Yuan leaned back on the chair quite leisurely, "We'd better not predict the future at will. The reason why the future is the future is because it cannot be predicted."

This time, the other side.

Utsunomiya noticed that there was something wrong with Fujimura's face, which was very pale.Since returning from outside the court, the whole person sat in the dock without saying a word.Utsunomiya frowned, and said, "Dean, that Kitahara, what did you tell you just now?"

Fujimura seemed to be taken aback, and his whole body bounced, "It's nothing. We didn't talk about anything just now."

The indicator on the secret door of the courtroom changed from red to green, and there was a crisp "beep".In an instant, Judge Takanashi reappeared and walked to the trial seat together with the two magistrates.The atmosphere in the courtroom froze again, and the unique sense of tension before the verdict spread instantly like a tide.

All the eyes in the auditorium fell on the chief referee, and the listeners couldn't hold back their curiosity, and couldn't wait to know the result of the verdict.

At this moment, the young male lawyer in the plaintiff's seat stood up with an unpredictable smile on his lips. He walked towards the trial seat and presented a piece of paper to the judges above. said:
"Chief referee. I'm very sorry. The plaintiff has just changed his mind and has no intention of pursuing this lawsuit. In this regard, the attorney formally filed an application to withdraw the lawsuit."

The word "withdrawal application" was circulated in the court.

The voice of these four words is very soft.

But in an instant, it was like igniting a gunpowder keg, causing an unprecedented violent explosion.Like a "boom", flames soaring into the sky quickly shot out, devouring everyone in the courtroom.

The university management in the auditorium has been completely stunned.The other party actually... actually chose to withdraw the case just before the verdict was pronounced.This is simply child's play, this is simply a fool of the university.The faces of some university management personnel have turned red.They have been tortured and exhausted for several months in order to deal with the university's public relations crisis in this plagiarism lawsuit.

But the sudden withdrawal of the lawsuit now tells you that the crisis you faced in the past turned out to be just a joke.And the university is the monkey being tricked.

Intellectual property experts and legal professionals in the court couldn't help opening their mouths slightly when they heard that the lawsuit was about to be withdrawn.At the moment before the verdict is about to be pronounced, it is almost unprecedented to apply for withdrawal of the lawsuit.This is almost tantamount to wasting judicial resources openly and challenging the patience of judges.The plaintiff's lawyer is probably crazy.

Some intellectual property experts among them shook their heads and sighed after being shocked.If this case is withdrawn in this way, then Toyo will lose an excellent intellectual property frontier case.

Judge Takanashi frowned slightly, then glanced at Shimokawa who was sitting in the plaintiff's seat.She was about to ask, but when her eyes fell on Xiachuan, she saw that the quasi-professor in front of her was already looking haggard, and her eyes were quite empty.His demeanor has fully demonstrated that since he started this copyright lawsuit, he has been under tremendous psychological pressure.

Judge Takanashi paused, and was about to ask, but swallowed it back, as if he had understood something, he just sighed softly again.

She turned to look at the dock, "Now the plaintiff wants to withdraw the lawsuit. According to the provisions of the Civil Procedure Law, you can agree or disagree. If you agree to the plaintiff's withdrawal, the collegial panel can make a ruling on the spot."

Listening to Judge Takanashi's words, Utsunomiya smiled.What Fujimura said is true, the other party has really surrendered.Although the case went through many ups and downs, it finally landed safely.This is the end of the confrontation with Kyoto University.

Utsunomiya was about to stand up, and slowly replied "permitted to withdraw the lawsuit".

At this moment, Utsunomiya suddenly felt the shadow around him flicker, and then heard the sound of a chair being pushed away.Looking away from the corner of the eye, it was Fujimura who stood up abruptly.

The dean of the Graduate School of Humanities at Kyoto University, for some reason, seemed to be trembling faintly at this time, as if someone was pointing a gun at him from behind, and his whole expression seemed to have seen a very terrifying monster.

"Dean? What are you going to do?!" Seeing Fujimura standing up suddenly, Utsunomiya immediately became vigilant and stretched out his hand to pull him down, but this pull couldn't pull him down.

Fujimura lowered his head slightly, his eyes were bloodshot.The naked eye could see that the blood vessels in his neck were swelling.He was experiencing a storm of lightning and thunder in his heart.Only Fujimura himself knows what he just experienced.Only he himself knows what kind of devil that lawyer named Beiyuan is.

Obviously, this lawsuit is coming to an end.

Obviously, as long as he agrees to withdraw the lawsuit, the dispute between himself and Xiachuan can be completely ended.

But now, this thread of life had to be cut off by himself.

Too cruel.

This Beiyuan lawyer is too cruel.

Why did he treat me like this, for...why...

Fujimura felt as if his hands and feet had been pierced by silk threads, and he became a puppet at the mercy of others.He didn't dare to look at the plaintiff's seat because he was afraid—afraid to see that lawyer named Beiyuan again!
Somewhere, it was as if a silk thread was stretched.

In the next second, Fujimura opened his mouth and trembled even more violently, only to hear his hoarse voice: "The defendant...the defendant...the defendant does not agree with the plaintiff Xiachuan's request to withdraw the lawsuit... I hope... I hope the court... judgment……"

Fujimura rejected Shimokawa's request to withdraw the lawsuit.

Almost everyone in the court was dumbfounded.Everything that happened in front of them has gone beyond their comprehension.What happened in just a few minutes cannot be explained by logic, it can only be said to be absurd.The plaintiff applied to withdraw the lawsuit one minute before the verdict was pronounced, but the defendant chose to refuse in the face of this favorable situation.

The scene in front of him was simply unprecedented.

Some intellectual property lawyers with extremely rich trial experience in the auditorium could not understand the situation in front of them.Only a few extremely seasoned lawyers could discern the turbulent undercurrent from this abnormal scene.There must have been an extremely intense confrontation somewhere that they didn't know about.

Utsunomiya looked at Fujimura, completely stunned.At this point, it was too late to stop it.Kitahara!It must be Beiyuan!Behind such a huge abnormality, there must be the few minutes of conversation between Fujimura and Kitahara when they went out just now, something must have happened!
Judge Takanashi couldn't help being slightly taken aback, but immediately suppressed her surprise.She glanced sideways at the Beiyuan lawyer in the plaintiff's seat.For some reason, she faintly felt that the absurd scene in front of her was related to this Beiyuan lawyer.This lawyer... seems to have single-handedly turned the whole case upside down.

Judge Takanashi immediately raised his gavel and struck the wooden seat.

"Crack!"

There was a crisp knock.

"The defendant does not allow the plaintiff to withdraw the lawsuit. Then, in accordance with the provisions of the Civil Procedure Law, the trial of this case will continue. Next, the public judgment will begin..."

PS: There will be an update tomorrow to end the case
