What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Cui Zhengyu feels that he's a bit confused about what "big event" means now.

Logically speaking, isn't the "big event" supposed to be the most important part at the end?

So, the big event of this dispute should be that commercial secret infringement case, right, after all, more than 1.2 billion in compensation, plus dismantling the other party's secret production line!

With such litigation goals, everyone thought it was impossible to achieve before it started.

It seemed like a dream, and unexpectedly, the Supreme Court, who knows if they were in the right mind... ahem, anyway, the Supreme Court really supported it!

From the moment the judgment was announced, Cui Zhengyu felt like he was dreaming.

Nearly 1.3 billion in compensation, with this money, Tengfei Company could really soar to great heights.

Such a dream could never be dreamed because even he thought it was impossible.

However, Lawyer Tang managed to turn the impossible into possible!

And now, Lawyer Tang has brought up the previous patent lawsuit again, wanting to apply for re-examination.

Moreover, the patent lawsuit isn't even the big event!

What is the big event after all, Cui Zhengyu doesn't dare to think anymore, but it doesn't matter, Lawyer Tang can do whatever he wants now!

He and Huang Zhongyi will support unconditionally!

Even if Lawyer Tang told him to strip naked and run on the street, he would do it without hesitation.

Turning the impossible into possible, that's the charm of Tang Fangjing!

At the re-examination application window of the Supreme Court, Old Tang walked over with Cui Zhengyu.

"Hello, comrade, I want to apply for a re-examination."

While speaking, Old Tang handed in the re-examination application, the previous judgment, and other materials.

These are a must for re-examination applications, especially for applying to the Supreme Court, it must be confirmed strictly on your level.

The staff inside took the judgment and glanced at it, "Ah, an intellectual property case, your case was concluded years ago, right?"

Old Tang nodded, "Yes, comrade, mainly because there's new evidence now, so I believe re-examination can be initiated."

"New evidence?" The staff inside smiled and asked, "What kind of new evidence?"

Old Tang then pulled out the recently acquired commercial secret infringement judgment and handed it over: "A very new judgment, just received five minutes ago from the Intellectual Property Court."

"Guaranteed fresh, though it should have been printed yesterday."

Uh... uh? The staff seemed a bit confused.

Looking at the "Supreme Court" inscription on the new judgment, and then at the judgment time, he went silent.

It indeed rendered him silent.

Finally, the staff spoke, "Was this judged today?"

"Yes, it was judged today."

The staff looked down at the application again and said, "So your application was prepared well in advance?"

Old Tang smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth: "It's always good to be prepared, I thought of saving some money for the client too..."

Cui Zhengyu immediately spoke up on the side, "Director Tang is right, he... he is really great."

There's no way, asking a man who has been in tech all his life to say something nice is indeed a bit difficult for him, after holding back for a while, he finally squeezed out a "really great".

The staff started to examine seriously again, and found no issues formally.

In the commercial secret dispute winning judgment, it is clearly determined that Dajin's technology originated from Tengfei.

Thus, there would be no issue regarding patent rights.

According to Article 10, Clause 6 of the "Supreme Court's Provisions on Evidence in Civil Procedures": The basic facts confirmed by a judgment that has already taken legal effect do not require evidence!

Therefore, the crucial point is whether this judgment has taken effect.

When does a second-instance judgment typically take effect? If you look at various lawyer statements or legal articles, they each have their own opinions.

For example, some say it takes effect within ten days after the judgment, which completely mixes up the second-instance and first-instance.

Others say it takes effect after receiving the second-instance judgment, which isn't incorrect, but it has flaws. In fact, there's no specific rule for when a second-instance judgment takes effect.

It should generally be like this: From the day the last party receives the second-instance judgment document.

Reality and novels differ; in reality, civil cases rarely have the announcement process, for reasons you might guess, to save the Judge's time.

The usual procedure is like this: sue, failing mediation leads to a trial, after trial everyone goes home.

When the judgment comes out, you're notified by phone to go to court to pick it up, essentially saying those thrilling on-the-spot judgments in films and television rarely happen in reality.

Other issues are involved, such as someone not attending the trial, leading to an absentee judgment.

In that case, no one will pick up the judgment, what then, it must be served by public notice, so if served by public notice, the effective time is upon the expiration of the public notice period.

The effective time of a judgment is actually very interesting, many don't take it seriously.

For instance, if a husband and wife are divorcing, one party cheated. While it isn't considered a major fault, in practice, it's regarded as a fault.

So, the court ruled, property is divided, the other party can receive the majority.

Alright, a first-instance judgment takes effect in fifteen days, let's quietly wait those fifteen days.

However, within those fifteen days, if the non-cheating party dies unexpectedly, then the situation changes.

Because when he died, the divorce judgment hadn't taken effect, so they weren't divorced yet, and hence, as a spouse, they are entitled to inherit the estate.
