Hello, Mr. Major General

The 616th chapter causes a sensation

"Punitive damages in civil litigation are generally for cases with very serious consequences and extremely bad social impact. You have a good focus. However, in order to highlight that Seth’s parents, the local police department and the city government have joint responsibilities, it is necessary to emphasize that Seth’s parents Irreversible wrongdoings have been made in criminal cases, even criminal acts."

He Zhichu explained to Gu Nianzhi like in class, "Understand?"

"Professor He is still great!" Gu Nianzhi nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, with a very well-behaved look.

He Zhichu couldn't help rubbing her hair, "Stop flattering, wait until lunch is over, rearrange the complaint, and then go to the court to file with me."

Gu Nianzhi smiled and ate lunch here at He Zhichu, and went back to the room to rearrange the complaint.

An hour later, the complaint was settled again, and she sent it to He Zhichu for final review. After he signed it, she took Gu Nianzhi to the court in person.

Before leaving, in the name of the American law firm, He Zhichu asked Smith, one of his assistants, to call the major German media, saying that their law firm would soon represent Li Haiqing’s parents to Nina, Seth, Seth’s parents, and Germany. The Silao Regional Police Department and the Dursiluo Office filed a joint civil claim, and the amount is temporarily confidential.

After the deliberate cooling and delay of the Munich District Court, the case became popular on social media for a while, because there was no follow-up development, the popularity gradually dropped.

This is exactly what Seth's parents want to see. As long as the public doesn't pay attention to this case, they can do tricks.

Unexpectedly, the phone call made by Smith at the beginning of He Chu was like a rock that stirred up waves, causing the German media to instantly boil over!

This is almost German breaking-news.

For a while, the largest German media interrupted the normal broadcast of the program, and all sent out on-site interview teams to broadcast the process of filing this civil lawsuit.

Previously, Li Haiqing’s case was once again turned out to be popularized and introduced to the audience, and it was said that the Munich District Court is still under consideration and the case has not yet been pronounced.

The media moved too fast.

He Zhichu's business car has not yet reached the Munich District Court, and the media's guns and guns have been set up at the gate of the court.

The weather was fine on this day. At two or three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was not so strong. When the wind blew, it was even cooler.

In the reporter's camera, a low-key black business car came slowly from the other side of the street and stopped in front of the Munich District Court.

The car door opened, and a tall, clear man in a black Armani suit wore sunglasses and walked out of the car. He Zhichu, one of the partners of the American law firm, is already familiar to everyone.

After he got down, he immediately turned around to reach out his hand in the car.

A woman took his arm and jumped out of the car. Although she was wearing sunglasses, she was still recognized. This is He Zhichu's only female assistant this time, and she also appeared in the third court hearing before. Gu Nianzhi!

The reporter immediately rushed forward, and countless microphones and recorders were sent to He Zhichu and Gu Nianzhi.

"Lawyer Ho, why do you file for civil compensation to the Durslau Regional Police and the city government?"

"Lawyer Gu, will you also appear in the civil compensation lawsuit?"

"Lawyer Ho, what is your claim amount in civil cases?"

...

Questions were thrown out impatiently, waiting for He Zhichu and Gu Nianzhi to answer.

Gu Nianzhi received He Zhichu’s indication and first spoke in English: "The civil claim was filed with the Durslau Regional Police Station and the city government because they neglected their duties and deliberately condoned criminals to destroy evidence and caused indelible damage to my victims. Loss and injury."

German reporters all understand English, so everyone immediately translated her words into German and sent the live video back to their own media.

He Zhichu looked around, and then said plainly in German: "This time, we are going to tell the two defendants, as well as Seth’s parents, York, Ramona, the Deslau Regional Police Department and the city government. Joint claims,

"What?!"

When the crowded reporters heard He Zhichu's words, they all stayed for a while, almost thinking that they could not understand German.

"Am I right?"

"Yeah, yeah, is it a billion... Euros?!"

"Yes, yes! I heard it was a billion euros!"

Everyone looked at He Zhichu and Gu Nianzhi together and reaffirmed: "The claim amount is really one billion euros?!"

"You didn't hear it wrong." He Zhichu said, walking straight to the court.

Gu Nianzhi followed closely, feeling very emotional.

Sure enough, huge claims are the big news...

If the amount of the claim is less, I am embarrassed to come out to see the reporter.

A small smile curled up at the corner of her lips and calmly walked towards the steps of the courthouse.

It took less than ten minutes to file the complaint from here to the court, but Gu Nianzhi thought of many things.

Huge civil claims are very common in Western countries, and their significance lies in discipline and deterrence, so that the strong party will not dare to do anything to harm the weak party.

Especially when an individual is on the weaker side and sues government agencies or large companies, the chance of winning is very high.

For example, in the famous McDonald’s hot coffee case in the last century, an old woman was scalded by McDonald’s hot coffee. Although she only stayed in the hospital for three days, she also demanded millions of dollars in compensation from McDonald’s, and later won the case.

This is the power of punitive damages in civil litigation.

Gu Nianzhi hopes that through this lion's open civil claim, it will not only attract the attention of the media and the public, but also prepare for the loss of criminal cases.

She has already sensed that due to the lack of direct evidence and the court's bias towards the defendant, their criminal case is likely to lose.

Although they will certainly continue to appeal, they can take advantage of the indignation caused by losing a criminal case. Gu Nianzhi hopes that their civil cases will go more smoothly.

To be honest, since there is no death penalty in Germany, Gu Nianzhi is not satisfied with the result of a criminal case no matter how he is sentenced. Therefore, only in a civil case can he let the other party know what "skin pain" is.

Due to the high level of media attention, and after He Zhichu submitted the complaint to the court, he published his complaint on the Internet. As a result, the Munich District Court would not be able to file a case.

Because countless legal experts and senior political officials are staring at this case.

No matter how powerful Seth’s stepfather, York, was, he could only cover the sky in the Durslau area. His hands were not big enough to cover the sky in Germany as a whole.

This is the second one.

A reminder of recommended tickets and monthly tickets!
