Chapter 776: Chapter 248: Yang Tiezhi Actually Invited Tang Fangjing?
Truth be told, Old Tang feels that many legal professionals nowadays are just not professional enough.
No matter what stance you take or for whom you are working, at the very least you should enhance your learning, at the very least you should improve yourself.
How come they are just gnawing on their old laurels?
For how many years now, have internet giants come up with new concepts like “shared employees” and “delivery rider sole proprietors”?
Yet, these traditional enterprises are still stuck in the old ways.
They always talk about temporary workers…
without any evidence, not even bothering with third-party shell companies; they just push forward forcefully, drag things out, really, it’s not that Tang Fangjing looks down on these people, but in three words, unprofessional!
Their intentions are awfully bad, but their professional capacity, truly, pales in comparison to the internet companies; no wonder the internet is considered the leading edge.
Unless you unravel the mystery layer by layer and break through barriers with multiple lawsuits like Old Tang did before, you wouldn’t even know who the employer is, let alone what to speak of labor relations.
Tell me, is this professional or not!
Anyway, since they want to drag things out, let them.
After all, I have already filed the case on my end, so just wait.
Filing the case wasn’t too troublesome; as it didn’t involve labor relations, fistfights leading to administrative detention, work-related injuries, and the like, it was just a routine case.
That’s why they were a bit surprised when Tang Fangjing walked in yesterday.
But you can’t just sit around waiting, whatever you do, procedures take time, so Old Tang quickly prepared to apply for an administrative review.
The reason for not pursuing administrative litigation is to change things up because honestly, running to the court all the time is boring.
If it were Bright District, of course he would go to boost his performance.
He wouldn’t go to the public security bureau in the Blue Mountain District, either, because legally, if you disagree with an administrative action, you either appeal to a higher authority or the same level of government, or you take it to administrative court.
You have no reason to directly negotiate with the institution or individuals that enacted the administrative action.
Even if he went to the public security bureau, it would be perfectly fine for them to ignore him. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on Nove1Fire.net
By the time he had prepared the application and returned to the hotel after lunch with Wang Qingqing, it was already midday.
After a brief rest, Old Tang set out for the Blue Mountain District government.
The main reason for not choosing the municipal office was simply the distance, no other reason.
In the taxi, Wang Qingqing spoke up, “Brother Tang, which department are we going to for this review?”
The words had barely left her mouth when the taxi driver’s ears perked up.
Old Tang chuckled and said, “I looked it up, and here in Blue Mountain District, their Bureau of Justice is specifically in charge of administrative reviews and litigation.”
“So naturally, that’s where we are headed,” he continued.
This is also something we need to make clear.
The law provides general rules, stating that you can appeal to either the local government agency or the competent higher authority.
But with such a large government body and so many departments, whom should you approach for the review?
The law only mentions going to an administrative review body, an agency that handles administrative reviews and litigations on behalf of the institution.
Which department serves as this review body differs from place to place.
Before 2019, it was generally the Legal Affairs Office that acted as this review body.
Yes, the same Legal Affairs Office that people joke about with “your law makes me laugh.”
For instance, if you seek a ruling from the State Council, their administrative review body is the Legal Affairs Office; you just go to them.
But in 2019, the Legal Affairs Office merged with the Bureau of Justice, so now, the review body is the Bureau of Justice.
That’s the case with Dongshan City this time.
Having the Bureau of Justice as the review body is pretty interesting, really.
At the very least, this should give you an idea of how powerful this move is.
What does the Bureau of Justice oversee?
Let’s not even talk about prisons; the first thing that comes to mind is lawyers, right?
The Bureau of Justice is at least the local lawyers’ ‘daddy,’ no question about it.
So, when you file for an administrative review or litigation, it’s the Bureau of Justice you’ll be dealing with.
Just think, would the local lawyers dare to challenge them?
But Old Tang doesn’t care.
In Jingzhou, he never chickened out when engaging in administrative litigation, much less elsewhere.
The Bureau of Justice, huh?
After thinking for a moment, Wang Qingqing said, “Then we’re going straight to the Bureau of Justice?
Isn’t it difficult to get in there now?”
Old Tang shook his head, “Certainly not, though the Bureau of Justice is specifically in charge, what we are heading for is the Petition and Appeals Office next to the government building; they have a dedicated administrative review reception room there.”
This has been the practice in many places nowadays.
In the past, you could basically walk into a government building at will, like Old Tang used to do when he was young.
If you have legitimate business, you register at the entrance and go in; wandering around inside for no reason is definitely not allowed.
These management practices have become stricter and stricter.
From the past to the present, Old Tang has always placed great emphasis on procedures.
If they tell you to go to that reception room, that’s where you go.
He wouldn’t insist on going to the Bureau of Justice just because he’s well-known.
No, that won’t happen.
They say Old Tang is a law unto himself, but in reality, he strictly follows legal procedures at every step.
Once they arrived, the Petition and Appeals Office was never short of people.
A bunch of people were seated in the lobby and more were standing outside.
Old Tang looked around but didn’t find the reception room.
He turned to the security guard at the door and asked, “Excuse me sir, could you tell me where the administrative review reception room is?”
