Chapter 620: Chapter 197: Dug a Hole, and You Really Jumped In!_2 Chapter 620: Chapter 197: Dug a Hole, and You Really Jumped In!_2 The reason he resolved to sue was not just because of Tang Fangjing’s negligence, but also Old Niu’s confidence.
If you ask whether there had been cases before of developers refunding double the deposit, of course, there were.
After all, in the past, those developers had too many tricks up their sleeves—they would start pre-sales without even obtaining the pre-sale permits, or they would sell one property to two different buyers.
There really were many such cases.
In those situations, as long as you sued, you were assured a double refund of the deposit, but many people were not aware of the issues then, and developers’ contracts would often include clauses like refunding the deposit in case the developer breached the agreement…
So, in cases where the developers voluntarily refunded the deposit, many chose to settle things peacefully.
However, unless it was a matter of “principle,” courts would not award a double refund.
There had not been a single case like that!
Therefore, after carefully reviewing the previous cases, Old Niu was very confident.
But today, after seeing Tang Fangjing’s complaint and evidence, Old Niu suddenly felt…
maybe he was not so confident after all.
Because it seemed like the other side made a lot of sense…
Spit spit spit, that lunatic couldn’t possibly make sense, he must be spouting nonsense!
“President Deng, let me tell you now that I think we still have a good chance of winning, but the opponent’s evidence is very damning…”
Deng Erfeng was stunned for a moment and glanced at the response letter.
He said, “So you mean, if we had really amended the terms back then…”
Old Niu gave a wry smile and said, “By now, we probably would have been taken away.
This Tang Fangjing, his moves are still so ruthless!”
Thinking that he had unknowingly walked along the edge of committing a crime, President Deng felt a bit scared; how could there be such a lawyer!
Now, the common people say that we developers are ruthless, but at most we leave the housing projects unfinished, burdening the people with thirty years of mortgage—that’s nothing.
Look at these kinds of lawyers; the pits they dig are so big and deep that if you’re not careful, you’ll fall right in—that’s truly ruthless!
Unconsciously unbuttoning his shirt, President Deng asked again, “So, what do we do now?”
Even though he knew the other side had set a trap, President Deng still had no desire for revenge.
After all, if they lost the case, it would only be four hundred thousand.
Yashi might show some signs of financial strain, but it hadn’t collapsed yet.
Just last month, the parent company had d tens of billions to a charity organization, and the senior executives were still receiving high bonuses—how could they say they had no money?
Upon hearing this, Old Niu said, “We can only go to court now, see who the court supports.”
Deng Erfeng nodded; he had no better idea.
He instructed Old Niu to prepare well and then stood up to leave.
The company had opened a new project in Jingzhou; he had to keep an eye on it.
At a line of law offices, ever since losing the case that day, Wang Dengfeng had taken leave to clear his head.
He was truly thrown off by what the legal director had said.
What does “lawyer’s tricks” mean?
My method was correct; this is the usual way refunds are handled, so how did it become a trick?
And now that he’s back, he hears a piece of news as soon as he returns.
That Lv Ziyang actually went to find Tang Fangjing?
Did Tang Fangjing sue or not?” Wang Dengfeng asked his colleague anxiously.
The colleague took out his phone and said, “He did sue, look, the hearing is in just two days, Changyi District Court has already posted the hearing notice.”
“After all, they were classmates; since he failed to get you to represent him, of course, he had to try Tang Fangjing…”
Wang Dengfeng nodded, returned to his office with a grim face, and an idea emerged in his mind—maybe he should attend the hearing?
If Tang Fangjing lost, wouldn’t that prove his point?
Han Chengli had the audacity to say that I don’t respect the legal profession—pure nonsense. Newest update provided by ⓝovelFire.net
It’s just a profession; what’s there to respect?
Winning is winning, losing is losing.
As an opponent, you should use any means necessary to take them down—what’s this nonsense about respect…
In such an atmosphere, the day of the hearing finally arrived.
Old Tang appeared at the entrance of the Changyi District Court with a briefcase in hand, accompanied by Lv Ziyang’s family.
Of course, only Lv Ziyang would participate in the trial as a party; the rest were there to observe.
“Stick to our plan: once the hearing starts, don’t talk.
Leave everything to me.
Got it?” Old Tang instructed on the side.
Lv Ziyang quickly nodded, just about to say something when the Yashi company’s people arrived.
The legal director Old Niu, along with a girl who appeared to be an assistant, also carrying bags.
Old Niu looked at Tang Fangjing.
This was his first time meeting Lawyer Tang.
A few days prior, he had been in contact with the court to see if they could go through a mediation procedure.
Then, Tang Fangjing firmly refused; if they were giving forty thousand, he would definitely agree to mediation, and he told the court staff to expedite the litigation process.
Old Niu couldn’t understand what made this young man think he could affront the court staff so brazenly.
Some people might not be capable of doing great things, but they can certainly spoil them!
He was puzzled, so after thinking for a bit, he walked over and said, “You must be Tang Fangjing, Lawyer Tang.
I’ve heard a lot about you; I am the legal director at Yashi, my name is Niu…”
