What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Liu Zixu was stunned at the words; he had never expected the school's various delays to actually work in his favor.

Once the contract was signed, Old Tang had to start preparing evidence.

The evidence of the right to be informed wasn't that difficult to obtain; the first step was to prove that Liu Zixu was a student at the school.

A student ID and an admission notice would suffice; some schools collect the admission notices upon enrollment, while others let the students keep them as a memento.

Next was proof of payment; the cost of the military training uniform had been listed in the notification materials, so he could just print out the bank transaction history.

The rest was various procedural evidence, such as the school's address, legal representative, contact information, etc., all of which are public information and easily accessible.

So it went until the next day, when the evidence collection was complete.

Old Tang packed his briefcase and took a taxi to the Xihong District Court.

Last time, Old Zhou had said to visit the Xihong District Court more often, and look, here he was; who would call Tang Fangjing a freak? He only knew to slander him.

At the Xihong District Court's case-filing office, after waiting in line for a while, it was Old Tang's turn, and he handed over the materials through the window.

The staff casually picked up the documents and his expression changed immediately upon seeing them.

He hadn't even looked at the details of the case yet; it was the name of the agent... Tang Fangjing had come to Xihong District!

He quickly looked up and sure enough, it was Lawyer Tang.

After a brief skim of the case materials, the staff member sighed in relief, thankful it wasn't a major lawsuit.

The disastrous sight at Bright District was not easily forgotten; with only a few judges in the civil tribunal, Lawyer Tang almost exhausted half of them, which was terrifying.

Wait a minute, there's something odd about this case...

A lawsuit on the right to be informed in this regard?

The staff member looked up at Tang Fangjing and said, "Lawyer Tang, this lawsuit... I haven't seen anything like it before."

Indeed, it was unprecedented, as normal college students would never sue their schools over such matters.

Upon hearing this, Old Tang smiled and said, "Well, there hasn't been one before, but it's alright. At the very least, as a student, he should have the right to be informed in this respect, right?"

The staff member reviewed the indictment again; in theory, this was true, but no one had really thought about it before.

It's actually because the entity of a university is too vague; some people believe that whatever the school does is its own business and has nothing to do with the students.

The state should be the one to conduct the investigation.

But in fact, students indeed have rights in this matter, unless the military training uniforms were provided by the school for free; otherwise, there would certainly be no grounds for a lawsuit.

The staff member asked Old Tang to wait and then went to call over the head of the case-filing office.

The head immediately showed interest upon seeing the case; the court dislikes cases that are purely procedural, as they are meaningless and just increase the workload for judges.

However, the court is very enthusiastic about cases that are legally sound but have never been seen before!

Not for any other reason, but because such cases might inadvertently become guiding cases of the Supreme Court!

A guiding case, after all, is one that other courts must follow when handling similar cases; otherwise, if appealed to the Supreme Court, the Supreme Court will surely overturn the decision.

This has been specifically emphasized by the Supreme Court; they have published a guiding case, and you still want to defy it, what does that mean?

After careful examination, the head of the office came to the window directly.

"Lawyer Tang, ah welcome, welcome! I'll tell you now, the case will be filed today, and you'll receive a receipt later. And then, we'll arrange a court session as soon as possible!"

There, no need for him to push; the court itself had volunteered to arrange everything quickly.

What he did not know, however, was that the Xihong District Court had never handled a leading case before...

After filing the case, Old Tang returned to the law firm. He wasn't in a hurry to check anything; the other party would provide the information on their own.

As time passed day by day, at Jingzhou Vocational College, whether it was counselors or school leaders, all were puzzled by the sudden silence from the Liu family.

Liu Zixu began attending classes regularly and methodically, no longer mentioning anything about dropping out.

The school was caught off-guard, with attempts to have him sign an agreement being refused; he said to either let him drop out or not.

Of course, the school could not readily agree to a withdrawal. Dismissing a student from enrollment was out of the question for a public school, as dismissal and persuasion to leave are two different concepts.

While puzzled, Monday arrived.

Dean Wang came to the school for work as usual, when his phone rang.

"Hello, yes, this is me. What? A subpoena from the Xihong District Court?"

What was this all about? How could the school suddenly receive a subpoena without having done anything?

Secretary Liu was also puzzled, saying, "Could it be something Liu Zixu is behind?"

"What grounds does he have to sue us? We have no reason, we haven't dismissed him. Besides, does he even have the guts?" Dean Wang replied.

Guessing wildly didn't solve the problem, and soon the courier, led by the security guard, arrived at the office.

After Dean Wang signed, he took out the materials and was instantly stunned: the right to be informed?

Just based on the so-called right to be informed, he wanted to know about the school's procurement matters?

The court had actually accepted the case? Without contacting the school in advance?

Usually, according to the principles of source-of-dispute management, and considering it involved a local entity, the normal process would be to attempt mediation first.

To clarify and resolve the issue.

Yet, this time the court went straight to filing the case without any prior communication!

The key point was, the plaintiff was indeed Liu Zixu!

Soon the counselor was called into the dean's office, where he was met with a severe reprimand.

"Just look at this; that Liu Zixu has sued the school!"

The counselor's face was blank with confusion. Liu Zixu dared to sue the school? Where did he get such audacity?
