And gave Lawyer Gu another banner...
Gu Chen and Xue Qingqing had just returned to the law firm, without resting.
Yan Yuting walked over and said, "Boss, there’s another case today, extrely urgent, soone wants you to represent them in a lawsuit."
Usually, Gu Chen wouldn’t take on ordinary cases in court.
The case submitted by the assistant indicates that it is quite complicated.
Yan Yuting said, "Moreover, the client insisted that only Lawyer Gu could handle this case... no one else would do."
Gu Chen said, "What kind of case?"
Yan Yuting gave the docunts to Gu Chen.
Gu Chen took the docunts and glanced at them.
The case is as follows.
A woman nad Huang Rong, who is quite well-off financially, received a call from ho on the morning of July 6.
An elderly relative at ho had passed away, and Huang Rong was asked to return ho quickly.
So Huang Rong packed her suitcase, planning to take the high-speed train ho.
Huang Rong was waiting in line for ticket inspection, keeping her suitcase properly behind her, without placing it haphazardly.
Everyone was queuing normally for ticket checks.
At this point, a middle-aged man nad Wang Zonglei, accompanied by his mother Fan Lijun, arrived.
They had been queuing at this ticket gate for so ti, only to realize they were at the wrong gate.
So, Wang Zonglei, holding his ticket, began looking for the correct ticket gate.
Wang Zonglei promptly left the line to find a new ticket gate.
Wang Zonglei’s mother, Fan Lijun, was over sixty years old.
Fan Lijun also left the queue with Wang Zonglei, preparing to leave.
As Fan Lijun was leaving, she passed by Huang Rong’s side.
Then, without noticing the suitcase behind Huang Rong, Fan Lijun tripped over it.
Fan Lijun lost her balance and fell, prompting Wang Zonglei to rush back to see to her.
Huang Rong also noticed Fan Lijun’s fall and hurried over to check on her.
At the ti, Fan Lijun thought she was fine, only feeling a bit dizzy, and didn’t think it was a big deal.
Fan Lijun didn’t even realize she had hit the back of her head.
Fan Lijun waved it off, saying she was okay, and as both parties were in a hurry to catch their trains, they exchanged contact information and left.
Eventually, after arriving at her destination, Fan Lijun complained of severe head pain and increasing dizziness.
Upon reaching the hospital, she was found to be suffering from a brain hemorrhage.
The situation then escalated.
Elderly Fan Lijun was hospitalized for treatnt, while Wang Zonglei contacted Huang Rong to explain the situation.
Wang Zonglei demanded that Huang Rong advance the money for hospital expenses, saying that it was because of her that Fan Lijun ended up in the hospital.
If she hadn’t tripped over Huang Rong’s suitcase, the old lady wouldn’t have been hospitalized...
Thus, Wang Zonglei felt Huang Rong should bear the responsibility.
Wang Zonglei continually asked Huang Rong for money, but Huang Rong felt quite wronged.
It was the old lady’s fault for not watching where she was going and bumping into her suitcase, how was it her fault?
Moreover, Huang Rong’s suitcase was placed appropriately, she didn’t misplace it, just kept it behind her.
And now, after soone bumped into her suitcase, she was expected to take responsibility?
Wang Zonglei directly demanded 300,000 yuan for dical expenses, but Huang Rong insisted she wasn’t responsible and didn’t have the money for those costs.
Huang Rong stated she wouldn’t go to the hospital and wouldn’t assu responsibility.
anwhile, Wang Zonglei kept pressing Huang Rong to shoulder the responsibility and pay...
The dispute between both parties continued.
Ultimately, Fan Lijun was treated in the hospital for fifteen days.
Whether she could recover was uncertain, given her age, being over sixty...
Seeing Huang Rong’s refusal to assu responsibility, Wang Zonglei attempted further communication...
Finally, Wang Zonglei decided to stop the treatnt.
Eventually, Fan Lijun died of respiratory failure.
After Fan Lijun’s death, the situation worsened further.
Wang Zonglei insisted that Huang Rong bear full responsibility and even suggested imprisonnt for her.
Upon learning about Fan Lijun’s death, Huang Rong expressed her inability to do anything and stated she wouldn’t accept any responsibility.
Then, Wang Zonglei decided to call the police.
Simultaneously, he chose to sue Huang Rong.
The case reached the diation stage, and if resolved successfully, it could avoid going to trial.
During diation, with diators on the side, Huang Rong and Wang Zonglei sat face-to-face.
Wang Zonglei said, "diation? My mother died because she tripped over Huang Rong’s suitcase, so she must take responsibility. Not insisting on penal consequences is already lenient; shouldn’t you bear liability for negligently placing your suitcase that resulted in a death?"
Huang Rong responded, "Why should I be responsible? How was my suitcase negligently placed? Wasn’t it just behind ? What should I be responsible for? Besides, what does your mother’s death have to do with ? She wasn’t killed in the hospital; didn’t you choose to stop treatnt?"
Wang Zonglei replied, "There’s nothing to discuss, just say whether my mom tripped over your suitcase."
Huang Rong responded, "Yes, and so what? What happened? Who doesn’t bring a suitcase when traveling by high-speed train? Isn’t it perfectly normal to carry one? I was traveling with my suitcase, and your mother bumped into mine; what could I do? You, as her son, went off to find the ticket gate heedlessly, not watching over your mom. When she bumped into my suitcase, you blad , even though I didn’t move at all. My suitcase didn’t move, I was just standing there, with the suitcase behind ."
