What's wrong with this lawyer?!

A small cart couldn't fit everything, and he wasn't used to bringing assistants and intern lawyers when going to court, so there was still a pile of materials in the car.

What is this? The staff felt a headache coming on and mumbled: "H-how much more?"

Old Tang thought for a moment and replied: "Not much left, another cart should be able to fit it all."

Nothing more to say, completely speechless, the staff called others, and everyone started unloading together.

Don't underestimate paper because it seems light; when piled up, it gets really heavy!

They finally managed to unload it, watching old Tang push the cart out as the equally anxious staff quickly followed him.

"Lawyer Tang, what kind of case are you dealing with this time with so much material?"

Old Tang laughed at the question: "An unfair competition case. Your court previously tried their patent dispute; this time, I'm dealing with the unfair competition."

Unfair competition, we tried that before?

The staff was a bit surprised: "Lawyer Tang, I remember you don't like commercial cases of this type?"

This time, old Tang was surprised: "Who said I don't like this type of case? It makes money; who wouldn't like money!"

The staff immediately said: "But previously on the internet, they said you only like criminal cases..."

Old Tang quickly said: "That's slander; how could I only like criminal cases? I treat all types of cases equally."

The two chatted on their way to the van, where the staff fell silent looking at it.

Silently stuffing the pile of materials onto the small cart and pushing it back with silence.

Old Tang handed over lawsuit-related materials: "This is the complaint, two applications, one for retrieving the files of Tao Zhongcheng's commercial secret infringement case, and one for retrieving the materials Dajin Company filed with the Safety Supervision Bureau..."

The staff took a look and suddenly said: "Tengfei and Dajin... I remember now, their case has been ongoing for years."

Another staff member beside him also said: "Yes, I remember too, that case caused a lot of issues back then."

The most seen thing in court is cases, ordinary cases wouldn't normally be remembered.

This case was memorable mainly because staff from the Intermediate Court there went for an investigation, an evidence preservation, but got directly blocked outside.

The staff from the Intermediate Court couldn't do anything, couldn't even enter their door.

Speaking of it feels helpless, people talk about court's competence, but sometimes, the court truly is impotent.

Old Tang laughed upon hearing this: "So, my second case brought me back to you."

The staff started looking at the complaint again, and the look in his eyes seemed frozen: "Lawyer Tang, what's this string of numbers, I counted twice and still couldn't get it right, isn't it my eyesight failing?"

Another staff member came over to take a look and was similarly shocked.

"Over twelve billion? Lawyer Tang, are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"

Old Tang looked relaxed: "Of course there's no mistake, otherwise I wouldn't have come to the High Court, right?"

When filing a lawsuit, you certainly include all calculable amounts, and whether the court will endorse it depends on how the court weighs it.

With such a high litigation amount, the litigation fees are also substantial, but it doesn't matter, if the lawsuit wins, the opposing party can cover the fees.

Based on the current evidence, old Tang is quite confident in winning!

The staff too were in a daze; though they work at the High Court, it doesn't mean they frequently see astronomical compensation amounts.

According to Supreme Court regulations, Handong Province High Court manages first-instance civil cases with a litigation amount over one billion, but one billion and twelve billion is quite a gap.

Even Handong Province High Court has never seen such a high claim amount!

"Alright then, Lawyer Tang, we'll probably need quite a while with all these materials, let's accept them first, and notify you once we have results."

This is quite reasonable, old Tang nodded: "Alright, you... take your time, I'll head out first."

He quickly left, because his "hostility perception" already detected that these people seemed to have developed "hostility" towards him!

Is it just because the materials are a bit much and the amount is a bit high?

Old Tang walked out of the court and a call from Huang Zhongyi came through.

"Director Tang, you've filed the lawsuit, right? Do you think the court will support that amount?"

He still felt a bit anxious; the compensation amount Lawyer Tang proposed was unimaginable for him.

Over twelve billion, nearly thirteen billion!

If they really paid, any losses would be irrelevant, and the company would instantly revive.

Old Tang laughed again: "Mr. Huang, I've told you, it's human-driven, I calculated the highest amount within legal boundaries."

"The court probably won't support such a high amount, but we asked for a lot, setting the standard high means even with discretion, they won't go too low, right?"

This is just joking, the court isn't a marketplace, whatever your sky-high price, they'll rule accordingly.

However, there is an issue of a stipulated one to five times, which might not seem much, but in this kind of case, it's quite intimidating.
