In the courtroom, Song Zhizhi’s voice bood, echoing throughout.
It was indeed an unexpected statent that surprised people.
The next second.
Plaintiff’s lawyer Zhang ng quickly stood up from his seat and loudly said, "Your Honor, the defendant has repeatedly violated the court’s discipline, even disrespecting the legal process, arbitrarily following their own emotions and whims. We strongly oppose the defendant’s plea of not guilty, it’s simply a waste of ti!"
"Objection sustained!" Judgnt Chief said, "According to the content of the defendant’s appeal for retrial, the defendant can only plead for a lighter sentence."
"Your Honor, that was only done out of desperation to prevent myself from suffering greater harm when I couldn’t find convincing evidence. However, in fact, the night before the trial, I obtained substantial evidence that can prove my innocence."
"Objection!" Zhang ng shouted again, "Given that the defendant’s lawyer had previously made a spectacle in court, I have reason to believe that the defendant is using the sa tactics to deliberately confuse the facts and disrupt the judgnt of the chief judge and the court. I suspect the defendant of malicious intent!"
"How am I malicious? What’s wrong with defending myself? Or is it that the plaintiff’s lawyer is afraid I’ll present evidence to establish the plaintiff’s guilt?"
"Miss Song! This isn’t your ho, it doesn’t go as you wish, everything must follow procedure and discipline."
"As I’ve said, I only received substantial evidence that could help the day before the trial. I was unable to re-appeal in such a short ti, nor could I waste everyone’s ti by asking to postpone." Song Zhizhi retorted defiantly to the formidable lawyer, "From what attorney Zhang just said, it seems that he’s dissatisfied with my family background?"
The world knows that Song Zhizhi’s father, Song Shan, is the premier diplomat in the financial world, his authority in business is second to none. Even if Zhang ng is a top-notch lawyer, he would not dare to let out half a word against their family unless he didn’t want to stay in the circle any longer. Upon being confronted by Song Zhizhi, Zhang ng could only respond in a slightly subdued tone, "Miss Song you’ve misunderstood, my hastily spoken words before might have led to so misunderstanding, what I ant was that the court requires a certain procedure, and the judges need to be prepared."
"So you’re worried that the judges don’t have the capacity to handle unexpected events and they can only adjudicate once fully prepared?"
"Miss Song, I’m only stating in accordance with my professional legal knowledge and the court’s rules. Please don’t take my words out of context!" Zhang ng struggled to keep calm, his pace of speech slightly quickened.
"I highly agree with attorney Zhang’s point of view, but isn’t restoring the truth and making a correct judgnt more important compared to upholding a so-called standard?"
"But..."
Song Zhizhi cut him off imdiately, "Attorney Zhang, I think it’s up to Judgnt Chief and the court to decide whether to hold a trial, not you objecting here ceaselessly. You can object if there is anything wrong with my statent of the case, but you cannot object or even decide if I should plead not guilty for myself!"
The prestigious lawyer, renowned for his unbeatable eloquence, was left speechless by a re twenty-sothing young woman at this mont!
