Jingzhou High-Tech District People's Court, Old Tang still walked in with a trembling step and shortness of breath, ready to file a case number.
The staff mber in front of the number-ticket machine glanced at the other party's movents and habitually asked, "Excuse , do you have a complaint with you? Without a complaint, we cannot file a case."
"Right, the online case registration is only online, you still need an on-site review..."
However, before he could finish his sentence, Old Tang had already handed over his complaint.
The staff mber took it and saw the words "Private Criminal Prosecution" written on it, involuntarily frowning.
Nowadays, private criminal prosecutions are truly rare. Even in a place like Jingzhou, the first ti Old Tang went for a private criminal prosecution, the staff was stunned for a long ti.
"This is a private criminal prosecution? That's quite unusual. Did you encounter so issues?" the staff mber looked up and asked.
"Let see, extortion... You are Tang Fangjing, right? The cri of extortion is normally a public prosecution offense, you should go to the public security bureau to file a report..."
"Wait a mont, your na is Tang Fangjing? You are that..."
Before the staff mber could finish speaking, Old Tang took out a piece of paper from his pocket, which read: "Jingzhou lawyer hit by a dump truck, Tang Fangjing."
Staff: "???"
When I make this expression, it's not who is being odd, it's you who is being odd.
"Lawyer Tang, you are pressing a private criminal prosecution, and it's for extortion, this isn't right..."
"Right, right, right, but I want to take a number, does this violate any regulations?" Old Tang spoke up, then suddenly began coughing violently, looking as if he was going to die.
The staff mber hurriedly said, "No, it doesn't violate regulations."
"Then that's settled."
He, of course, knew what the significance of this person being here was; it was to filter out so of the plaintiffs who didn't et the requirents right from the numbering stage.
However, how to review it was a matter for the case filing court, Old Tang really didn't want to explain here, then go and explain all over again to the case filing court.
However, without being able to take a number, he entered the private criminal prosecution into the system, which directly displayed that numbering was not possible.
Old Tang glanced over and saw that the Jingzhou High-Tech District had a separate window for private criminal prosecution filings, and it appeared to be empty.
It was very likely that normally, no one cos for a private criminal prosecution, so this area rely had a window, without a staff mber actually present.
With no one there, naturally, one could not take a number. Old Tang looked straight at the staff mber in front of him and said, "Look at the current situation, I can't even get a number."
The staff mber hesitated but still directly said, "Then, Lawyer Tang, please wait a mont, I will go and discuss this with them."
After speaking, she went over to the administrative lawsuit filing window on the side and began talking to the people inside, while Old Tang could see her pointing in his direction as she spoke.
After waiting a long while, the private criminal prosecution filing window was still empty, but another staff mber ca out.
"Excuse , are you Lawyer Tang? You want to proceed with a private criminal prosecution? I heard from him that your prosecution is for the cri of extortion, right? This should be a public prosecution case."
Old Tang imdiately looked at the staff mber and said, "Whether it's a public or private prosecution, I certainly have evidence, and I am a lawyer; it's not like you are going to handle public prosecution cases as private prosecutions, right?"
"If you can decide, I'll bring you the evidence. If you can't, then please find soone who can."
"It's not that I don't want to take them out, but I am currently in the late stages of cancer, with tastasis throughout my body, in so much pain I can hardly move, not to ntion the steel nails in my arm have not been removed, okay?"
Seeing that just a few words had the other party sweating profusely, the staff mber hurriedly said, "Then co to the window."
Old Tang arrived at the window and waited for a while, and finally, the staff mber inside appeared, the one who had just been speaking with him outside.
The staff mber nad Wu Yundan had also been working in the court for about ten years. She went out to talk to Old Tang earlier, mainly to inform him of the problem.
But unexpectedly, the other party seed very confident, though Wu Yundan couldn't for the life of her figure out where this confidence ca from.
Extortion is a public prosecution case, which was all too well-known, and any lawyer could prove it to you. If extortion occurs, one should report it to the public security organs.
The public security organs should investigate the case, and the procuratorate should initiate the public prosecution. This is the correct legal procedure.
And in her ten years here, she had hardly seen any private criminal prosecution cases. The few that did exist were all ruled as not to be accepted.
"Lawyer Tang, you can now present the evidence, right?" Wu Yundan said, looking at Tang Fangjing.
Although she appeared emotionless on the surface, she was feeling sowhat annoyed inside.
Old Tang remained unfazed, calmly pulling out materials from his bag.
"This is the complaint, and this one, the explanation from the public security organ for not filing a case, and this receipt is from the High-Tech District Procuratorate concerning case supervision."
As he spoke, Old Tang handed these docunts over.
Wu Yundan glanced at the complaint and started reading the other two docunts. After finishing, she still expressed doubt, "Lawyer Tang, this only proves that the public security side won't file a case, and the procuratorate also sees no problem."
"But extortion is still a public prosecution case. If you self-prosecute with this reason, our side will definitely not accept it."
Old Tang then said, "Is that so? Then let ask you, under what circumstances can one file a private criminal prosecution?"
If it were soone else, Wu Yundan would have told them to leave a long ti ago. She had explained it so many tis—if you don't listen, we'll just keep the materials and directly issue a ruling of non-acceptance.
But this was Tang Fangjing, and moreover, he was in poor health.
