What's wrong with this lawyer?!

In Erhoutou village committee, Ding Detu was chatting with Ding Deshui, naturally about Tang Fangjing.

"Brother, I've already inquired, the police haven't filed a case, so you can rest easy," Ding Detu laughed heartily.

Although he had felt it was unlikely for a case to be filed before, it was, after all, Tang Fangjing--an internet celebrity. Therefore, after their argument, Ding Deshui was still a bit worried and had been inquiring about the situation these past few days.

In such a small county town, you can really say it's all about who you know. Such a trivial matter could be easily inquired about, and the decision not to file a case wasn't something that needed to be kept secret.

Hearing this, Ding Deshui was relieved and laughed as well, "This Tang Fangjing, he thinks this is Jingzhou or something. Besides, there have been so many forced demolitions. If taking back land for the village constitutes a crime, then we might as well not have a village committee in the future."

The two chatted casually when Ding Detu's phone rang.

"Hello, yes, this is Ding Detu. Who is this, Lincheng City Intermediate Court? You want me to return the medical expenses we were awarded before?"

Ding Detu glanced at Ding Deshui in front of him and then said, "That's impossible. I've already spent that money; I can't return it now, and besides, it was you who made the judgment."

Ding Deshui smiled and nodded his head, saying exactly that, they were in the right anywhere they went!

A male voice came from the phone, "Mr. Ding, the original verdict has been revoked by the Intermediate Court. Therefore, according to the relevant regulations, we need to carry out the enforcement reversal procedure, and you must return that money."

"If you refuse to return it on your side, we will have to take compulsory enforcement actions..."

Maybe it was because the words sounded too forceful, but upon hearing this, Ding Detu instantly became furious and shouted into the phone, "Compulsory enforcement? I'm telling you, I don't have the money!"

"The knife was stabbed into me, the money was all given to the hospital, I didn't pocket a dime from start to finish. You want me to return it now? I have no money; if you have the guts, go ask the hospital for it!"

Ding Detu also felt aggrieved. All the money had gone to the hospital, and now the court didn't have the guts to ask the hospital for it but came to demand it from an ordinary person like him?

On the other end of the phone, the enforcement judge Chi Qingquan of the Lincheng Intermediate Court had already reflexively moved the phone away from his ear before Ding Detu started yelling, handling the entire process with extreme familiarity.

There was no help for it. In most cases that reach the enforcement bureau, a series of resistance is typically expected; otherwise, if the verdict led to automatic compliance, it wouldn't reach the enforcement bureau.

He had seen far too many people yelling over the phone. In most cases, he'd rather not listen to their excuses.

An enforcement judge is only responsible for enforcement. As for your various reasons, sorry, but if you think you've been wronged, you can apply to the litigation department. As long as the verdict has not been revoked, the enforcement will continue.

If you have to listen to the excuses the defendants give for each case, you might as well not be in enforcement at all. Once it's gotten to the point of disturbing the court and requiring compulsory enforcement, everyone has their difficulties.

After Ding Detu finished yelling, Chi Qingquan picked up the handset and said, "Ding Detu, I want to emphasize to you now that refusal to comply with a verdict or ruling may lead to fifteen days of administrative detention, and in serious cases, it can lead to..."

This was also routine, to tell all that needed to be said during the enforcement process, including the possible consequences, and then if you continue to resist, we will proceed accordingly.

Of course, it might sound easy to say, but in reality, enforcement judges have too many cases on their hands, and many cases simply couldn't be enforced by compulsion.

Let's not even mention the textbook cases of debt dodgers or the like. To give the simplest example, how do you enforce an official department's debt? Do you detain the legal representative?

On the other side of the phone, Ding Detu hung up, not wanting to listen to any of it.

Chi Qingquan, listening to the busy signal, shook his head and put down the phone. He had already anticipated this outcome.

For any other case, he'd just have to wait it out, with hundreds of cases on hand to queue up gradually.

But this case was different; it was a directive from the leadership, requiring swift action.

So, in no time, Chi Qingquan began the process. Tang Fangjing might be influential at the Intermediate Court, but you're just a village committee member—who gave you the guts to confront the court.

Meanwhile, after Ding Detu hung up the phone, just as he was about to say something, he found Ding Deshui starting a phone call too.

"Hello, Attorney Zhou. Yes, it's me. Oh, it's been a long time, why don't I treat you to a meal tomorrow? Yes, I've got a situation here; could you help me analyze it..."

On the other end of the line, Attorney Zhou, busy in his office, felt a bit bothered but still got up and went outside to answer, "Alright, Director Ding, go ahead."

Ding Deshui hurriedly said, "Attorney Zhou, it's like this, did you mention last time that the court would ask us to return the compensation money, right? Lincheng Court called my younger brother just now, asking for it to be returned. If my younger brother doesn't return it, will there be any trouble?"

Upon hearing this, Attorney Zhou rubbed his eyes and said, "Of course, there will be trouble. But normally, if your younger brother has money in his account, the court will simply freeze it and then deduct the amount."

"If there's no money, they'll ask for a financial report at that point and then follow up with the enforcement process based on that information..."

Upon hearing this, Ding Deshui instantly laughed, "So, what you're saying is, we're actually not in a rush here, right? As long as we eventually pay what's due, the court won't really do anything to us, right?" Continue reading on My Virtual Library Empire
