Chapter 874 Profound Knowledge
"Goodman, when the time comes, send a trusted lawyer to enter A+CN with Northern Trust and Comcast's 10 million promotional expenses, and use a senior position to supervise the use of the money to restrain Gordon. Focusing on the topic of the news, I still can't rest assured about his apology and guarantee today."
After Gordon walked out of the study, he didn't stay at the party, Song Ya lifted the curtains, stared at the taillights of his car leaving Highland Park and said.
"Okay, how's Kim Wexler? She's very capable." Goodman nodded.
"Jimmy's girlfriend? Yes." Song Ya recalled that Jin was a young lawyer at the Goodman & Hamlin law firm. She was quite beautiful. For a while, I often saw her and Goodman's younger brother Jimmy Double out and pair in.
"Huh?" Goodman frowned, as if he didn't know about it.
"Uh, don't you consider Alicia's feelings? A+CN's legal business belongs to her Flock & Argus law firm." A good friend of the Sloan gang asked.
"This has nothing to do with legal work. Hamlin's law firm and I help APLUS manage A+CN's parent company A+ Copyright and Investment Management Company. Of course, we have the right to supervise the flow and use of this fund." Goodman retorted.
"Yes, that's all. Ms. Sloan, please ask Alicia to come."
Of course, Song Ya trusted Goodman's people more, and ordered solemnly, "I can explain it to her alone, and I believe she will have no objection."
"OK."
‘Is OJ Simpson out of money? Why didn't he hire another dream team of lawyers to help get rid of the murder in the civil lawsuit that will go to trial next month? Those criminal forensic experts can't help in civil lawsuits, let alone Cochrane, isn't he being too careless? '
"Simpson is burdened with more than one civil lawsuit, at least three, the distribution of the estate of his ex-wife who was killed, the dispute over the custody of his children with his ex-wife's parents, and the two deceased in criminal cases, his ex-wife and the restaurant The civil compensation proposed by the waiter's family... He may indeed not be able to hire Cochrane, and Cochrane may not be willing to help him fight a civil case with a lower winning rate after the criminal case has achieved the perfect achievement of acquittal. Losing would be bad for Cochrane's reputation. '
‘Lower winning percentage? Chances of a settlement in a civil case are high, right? '
"Lower, some evidence that is not admissible in a criminal trial is allowed in a civil trial, such as polygraph data, such as some audio recording evidence..."
'How much money will Simpson lose if he loses? '
"A lot,
But he was very lucky to escape criminal responsibility. Civil cases can be settled with money. For him, what is spending more money? Of course this is my personal feeling. "
‘According to the latest polls, Quanmi and you hold the same opinion as the majority. '
‘Well, and he should have bought relevant insurance before. Unlike criminal felonies, some civil compensation can be paid by the insurance company, so compared to the sky-high remuneration of the fantasy lawyer team, perhaps it is actually cheaper for him to admit the compensation. '
'Ha ha! There are so many ways! '
‘Yes, in the Anglo-American law system, how to use legal weapons reasonably is a very profound knowledge. '
'So we have you as our guest, don't we? ... Doctor, thank you for your wonderful explanation. We laymen have no way of getting started, and I believe most of the TV viewers are the same. So... the next topic, MJ's new troubles? '
All the lights in the study were turned off, only the small TV screen was still on. In a talk show on Channel 88, the host and guests were still chattering about the new case of Simpson and MJ Nagging, as if you can talk until the world is destroyed.
This kind of talk show is the most economical. It does not need to go on location, and does not need too many editors. Apart from the salary of the host and director and the announcement fee of the guests, the other costs are probably the studio rental fee.
The TV was turned up very loudly to drown out the intense and embarrassing noise from the couch.
‘The dentist father and son who got his 20 million settlement money? I personally think they are still hesitating...'
'hesitate? They claimed 60 million. '
'The higher the claim amount, the higher the litigation costs. They already have a huge sum of 20 million in their hands, and the father and son have spent their entire lives drinking and drinking. Do they really dare to invest huge sums of money to gamble again? Hard to say. MJ’s reaction this time was very intense, he should not be willing to be blackmailed again, the possibility of reconciliation is extremely low...’
'They haven't filed a lawsuit yet, have they? '
'Yes, at present it may just be the stage of letting out the wind to test the reaction of public opinion, the effect is not very good, they are too greedy. Uh, to be more precise, the dentist himself, that Evan Chandler is too greedy, and his son is underage, so the father should not blame the child for everything he did. '
'MJ shouldn't have to suffer, all of our African-American hearts are with him, he is a very kind, capitalized person. '
'Yes, the criminal trial in '93 said it all, it ended at the grand jury stage, maybe he shouldn't have paid the dentist that money, absolutely not. '
‘His body was almost destroyed by the endless lawsuits at the time, all business activities had to be suspended, and the choice to end the lawsuits and resume work as soon as possible could not be wrong. '
‘Anyway, it’s too indulgent for Evan Chandler’s greed. '
'You're repeating the word greed. '
"Yes, greed. Evan Chandler has become a bad example for many people. Recently, a gardener who only worked on the periphery of Neverland Ranch for a few days also sued MJ in California. Other similar small-scale lawsuits have never stopped. , everyone thinks he is weak and deceitful, and they are all trying to get his money."
'do you know? After hearing these bad things, I really want to scold people for MJ. '
‘Haha, it’s best not to, your personal attack now may cause you and A+CN to become defendants and receive a fine from the (Federal Communications Commission). '
'Thank you for your legal advice... Doctor, I will stop scolding then. '
‘It’s free for you. '
'Haha, thanks again...'
"What kind of broken program is this?" Panting heavily, Song Ya picked up the remote control and turned off the TV viciously, "It's smelly and long..."
"Huh..." The governor's wife sighed contentedly, then lazily got up to pick up the clothes, shoes and socks scattered everywhere, "Is it long or you short?"
"It's long...and don't forget there's a party going on outside, I have to hurry up."
"Okay, okay, the objection is valid." Alicia didn't bother with it anymore, and after joking with a judge's term with a smile, she quickly returned to the image of the noble and indifferent elite mature woman before entering the door, "I just heard outside, you To work with Lockhard & Gardner?"
She has a clearer distinction between public and private than Song Ya, and seamlessly switched to the topic.
"Yes, I had to make myself a client of theirs to get rid of some of the hidden dangers in the Bahn Chemical case, you know Alicia, Will Gardner used to represent Edward, in the early stage of the Bahn Chemical acquisition case middle."
Song Ya helped her sort out the small details that might reveal her appearance, "Can you understand me?"
"Of course, don't forget that I was also working at Lockhard & Gardner at the time."
She expressed her understanding, "Edward and Will turned against each other in the end. He thought that Will cheated him too much money, and in the end, Will almost lost his license to practice."
"If the worst outcome of my Bahn chemical case comes out, that is, it will enter the trial stage, I believe Will will have a chance for revenge." Song Ya said.
"Well, Will hates Edward very much."
Alicia nodded, "But if you form a dream lawyer team, don't forget to bring me with you. This is a good opportunity to increase your status."
"You are the governor's wife." Song Ya had doubts.
"I will convince Peter that he is him and I am me," Alicia said.
"Okay, but I want to hear Peter personally promise me that you will represent me in court..."
When the two talked about Peter, it was as natural as talking about a tool person who only had a relationship of interest. Song Ya solemnly warned: "Otherwise, don't blame me Alicia."
"OK. But... appearing on camera? After the Simpson case, Quan Mi began to reflect. It is difficult to get a TV live broadcast license for major cases. I think the possibility of me appearing on camera is very small." She said.
"It's even less likely that my case will go to court..." Song Ya smiled confidently: "I'm going to be a top student at the University of Chicago Law School, and law is not a profound subject for me."
"Hehe, I'm so proud. Is it okay?" Alicia smiled and hooked the bag up to her arm, and turned around in a circle.
"Hmm." Song Ya wiped her mouth to signal.
"Oh yes." She took out lipstick from her bag, pouted her lips and began to apply it.
