What's wrong with this lawyer?!

The streets of Changlu County teemed with traffic and people that morning, and Old Tang strolled through them casually, gazing around just like a drifter.

As Section Chief Jia had thought, he had made all the preparations to file a complaint with the Procuratorate and initiate a private criminal prosecution.

If this were in Jingzhou, it could be certain that the public security organs would definitely file a case, although it might not be for a unit crime, at the very least they would target the village chief.

But this was Changlu County.

Lincheng City is the most backward city in Handong, and Changlu County is the most backward county in Lincheng.

It's not to say that the legal system construction in poor places is definitely poor; rather, from a certain perspective, it really does have a certain connection with the local economic level.

The economic base determines the superstructure.

So, he had to be prepared for the possibility that the public security organs would not file a case.

As for filing complaints with the Procuratorate and initiating private criminal prosecutions, there was also a great possibility that they wouldn't file a case in Changlu County.

Well then, that would be good, he would just take it up the levels, and he was prepared to take the case all the way to the Supreme Court!

He hadn't been to the Supreme Court in this life yet, and he had to make a trip there at least once, otherwise he would always feel uncomfortable.

In fact, in the eyes of outsiders, Old Tang was very tough, but in this respect, he was somewhat a bully scared of a tough opponent. After all, if it really came down to it, the illegal demolition by the village committee qualifies as a unit crime, so does the illegal demolition by certain departments count as a unit crime?

Isn't this topic interesting? Why do various laws and regulations, from the Civil Code to "Regulations on the Expropriation and Compensation of Houses on State-owned Land" and more, all say to compensate before demolition?

Essentially, it's about buying the house from someone else... the land doesn't need to be bought, it's not yours.

But now, you directly demolish first and then talk about compensation...

In fact, whether in his past life or this one, the legal community has called many times for criminal responsibility in cases of illegal demolition, especially those that are substantively illegal.

The Supreme Court has also published some articles on it, but obviously, this issue is not simply a legal one.

So now, the village committee is naturally the soft persimmon, and someone willing must squeeze it hard.

Old Tang was quite relaxed here, while in Lincheng, Ding Deshui was getting irritable.

After speaking to that lawyer friend, he consulted others and finally confirmed a piece of information, which was that the money previously compensated had to be refunded!

Sitting on the hotel bed, Ding Deshui was making a phone call.

"Third brother, I can't help it either. The court ruled it this way, so what can I do? We don't have any connections in the Lincheng Court."

On the other end of the phone, from inside Er Tou Village's village committee, one of the committee members, Ding Deshui's younger brother Ding Detu, said with wide-open eyes, "Brother, are we supposed to just obediently give the money to him?"

Ding Deshui in the hotel hesitated for a long time before saying, "For now, don't give it to him. If there really is an issue, just say that all the compensation money was spent on hospital bills at the time."

Ding Detu said, "No problem, when are you coming back, brother?"

"I'll only be here for a day or two. I've still got some stuff to handle..."

After hanging up the phone, Ding Deshui decided to go out to relax a bit. Coming to Lincheng warranted experiencing its nightlife.

As days passed by, it soon reached noon on the third day.

In Changlu County, Ding Deshui had returned, and as soon as he got off the car, he received a call from Ding Detu.

"What? What did you say? That Tang guy actually went to the police to file a report? He wants to get me thrown in jail? Is that true? Has Tang Fangjing gone mad?" Ding Deshui said in shock.

"Brother, it's absolutely true, definitely real!"

Ding Deshui's face darkened as he suddenly remembered what the lawyer had said on the phone.

The lawyer mentioned that Tang Fangjing seemed especially keen on putting people in jail, and it was said that since he started practicing law, the number of people he had put away could form an entire squad.

At the time, he thought it was a joke, but now it seemed that the man really wanted to do it!

Damn it, yes... he seemed to be insane indeed, really damn hell!

Immediately he asked, "So what's the outcome? Did you find out anything?"

"Do I even need to say? Of course, the case won't be filed. There's no crime, so why should the public security be involved?" Ding Detu quickly said.

Indeed, they truly believed this wasn't a real issue at all. If you couldn't agree on money, you'd just demolish it first; this was a basic operation for many villages, there couldn't be any problem.

Although he was told that the case was not filed, Ding Deshui still felt very unsatisfied, "Does this Tang Fangjing think he's so outstanding that everyone has to give him face wherever he goes?"

"Damn it, what the hell, is this guy still in the county?"

He had never seen someone so arrogant in his entire life; what's so amazing about a web celebrity lawyer.

"He should still be here; he reported the case and has been waiting in the county."

Ding Deshui asked a few more questions and then hung up the phone. Tang Fangjing, huh? When it came to the trial in the intermediate court, he couldn't intervene directly and it was also because Huang Licheng, even if acquitted, really had nothing much to do with them.

Now, on one hand, the other party had arranged for the previous compensation to be refunded, and on the other hand, he actually came to Changlu County to file a case, wanting to send him to jail. If he didn't do something, Ding Deshui wouldn't be able to sleep at night when he returned.

Meanwhile, Old Tang, who was having lunch, received a phone call: "Hello, Section Chief Jia, good to hear from you. How are things going, any decisions from your bureau?"

The voice of Jia Zhaoming came through the phone, "Lawyer Tang, after investigation and research by the bureau, we now have a result. You are still in the county, right? That's good, come to the bureau this afternoon."
