Chapter 1189: Chapter 383 Old Tang: I’m a bit excited! _3
However, note that this type of case demands ticulous detail!
Jie Jianbin must see the original, that is, the technical drawings recorded in Tengfei Company’s confidential computer!
This is the reason for signing the confidentiality agreent.
The pre-trial eting was held at the Handong Province High Court, with Old Tang, Huang Zhongyi, and Cui Zhengyu preparing to participate as plaintiffs.
As a result, as soon as Old Tang led the way into the eting room, he saw a familiar person.
Fortunately, Old Tang had good psychological resilience, or he would have almost called out Old Zhou’s na.
If he had really called out, without a doubt, with Director Jie’s level, there would certainly be a recusal request.
Although it’s unclear how Old Zhou got involved in this case, there’s a significant chance such a big case will beco a typical example.
If his shout caused Old Zhou to be recused… it’s likely that tomorrow there’d be a news story about a “judge and lawyer getting into a street fight”.
The Presiding Judge is the head of the civil tribunal of the High Court, surnad Sun, a middle-aged man who seldom smiles, only briefly smiling when he saw Old Tang.
After all, he’s a flagbearer in Handong’s legal circle.
The eting began, with the technical matters handed over to Cui Zhengyu and the others by Old Tang, who only needed to handle the legal matters.
The evidence from both sides is extrely complicated, and because of the other party’s statent of defense, Old Tang supplented and submitted twenty additional pieces of evidence.
This ans that just to prove that the technology is Tengfei Company’s trade secret, Old Tang prepared forty-six pieces of evidence!
And to prove the joint infringent by Dajin Company, the design company, and Tao Zhongcheng, thirty-five pieces of evidence were submitted.
Such an amount of evidence couldn’t possibly be reviewed one by one at the first instance, so everything that needed confirmation had to be confird now.
What Old Tang didn’t expect was that just as the eting began, Jie Jianbin proposed to add new reasons.
A pre-trial eting isn’t a first instance, so you’re expected to bring up any matters, and adding temporarily isn’t an issue.
Looking at Old Tang across, Jie Jianbin said, “We believe the case has exceeded the statute of limitations, as Tengfei Company sought to sue us for patent infringent several years back.”
“According to the trial transcript of the ti, Tengfei Company’s party ntioned that Dajin Company copied their technology.”
“Therefore, at that ti, Tengfei Company knew or should have known its rights were infringed, but the lawsuit was only filed now.”
“It’s long past the three-year limitation period…”
This counted as an unexpected surprise. Jie Jianbin, with a testing attitude, had applied to the court to retrieve the trial transcript from that ti.
The judgnt was rather vague, written by the Judge based on the materials submitted by both parties and so statents during the trial.
Yet, during the trial, there’s also the trial transcript.
Anyone who frequently goes to court knows there’s a clerk constantly recording parties’ statents, including the Judge’s words.
After it’s over, both parties have to sign.
Sotis the Judge asks you to slow down, probably because you’re speaking too fast for the clerk to keep up…
This docunt is sealed and kept confidential, but at that ti both parties could apply to review it themselves.
Thus, Jie Jianbin retrieved the critical content, and the clerk was straightforward in recording it all.
Huang Zhongyi and Cui Zhengyu were stunned, especially Cui Zhengyu, who suddenly recalled that it seed… it seed he was the one who said that sentence!
But back then, he was especially angry, because the other lawyer was just too good at arguing.
Moreover, the other party’s situation did indeed seem sowhat like plagiarism, so he blurted it out; who would have thought such a sentence could be dug out by this lawyer and beco a point of attack against them!
The two of them looked at Old Tang together, only to see Lawyer Tang’s face filled with excitent now, like a thirsty strong man encountering a seductive beauty!
Suddenly, the two of them felt they weren’t so nervous anymore…
