Chapter 501
At the same time, the legal department of Yama couldn't help but complain loudly as he looked at the newly sent work tasks: "There are too many such trivial things recently!"
"We have to hurry up. I have booked a flight ticket for Mardifu, take my wife with me and prepare for a honeymoon."
The blonde and hook-nosed lawyer, his narrow eyes were filled with irritability: "There are always poor people who disturb my plans! They should go to hell!!"
"Okay, we can send them to hell."
Someone joked that the lawyer from the Legal Department had sorted out the materials and prepared to welcome him this week, and the other party burst into tears!
A week later.
New York court.
Bill was a little nervous, took a deep breath, sat in the plaintiff's dock, and the several Amazon merchants sitting in the back rows that came to watch. It was obvious that they did not have expectations on their faces. Someone has lost the case in this court.
"Lawyer Gong Xijin, what do I need to speak later?"
"You don't need to do anything, keep it quiet."
Bill was stunned for a moment and nodded nervously.
As Yama's legal department arrived, his blonde and sharp eyes radiated a strong arrogance, "We can be faster, my time is quite precious." He lowered his head to look at the watch on his wrist.
The judge sitting on the platform, wearing a black uniform, glanced at him briefly.
"The New York Superior Court held a hearing, let's check the principals of both parties." The elderly judge pushed his glasses and opened the information.
"Mr. Bill Bloomer, are you there?"
"Yes."
Bill immediately stood up, his voice stumbled: "This is my defense lawyer, Gong Xijin lawyer."
"Hello, dear judge." Gong Xijin smiled and stood up, and saw the pale-haired elderly judge lifting his head and looked at him unexpectedly.
"I've heard your name."
"Of course, courts in New York have always been fair."
After the meaningful words fell, the jury sitting beside him looked at each other and whispered. Attorney Yama frowned and turned his head: "Has he bribed the judge?"
"Wiverde never accepts bribes." The colleague whispered, and they didn't bother to contact insiders in the face of such a small lawsuit.
"Okay. Yellow people have always been honest."
The blond lawyer's voice with a stereotype fell and heard the judge ask a question.
"Ama representative Mr. Hayden Jonson, whether he is present."
"certainly!"
After confirming that both parties were present, the judge briefly announced the litigation issue and asked the plaintiff to indicate the content of the litigation.
"Hello, please let me tell you briefly." Gong Xijin stood up and spoke in smooth English: "I will represent 237 registered stores in Yama, solicit their opinions and signatures, and I will focus on the court on their behalf. Defense. This is a consent form." He took out a thick stack of paper and submitted it to the judge and continued to speak: "On October 23, Amazon sent text prompts to several registered stores, prohibiting them from purchasing internationally to below Amazon sells products at the price, and after several merchants refuse, it coerces the merchant to agree to reduce the exposure of the store. After failing to achieve the goal, it forcibly removed the products and reduced traffic. This series of actions remained after the merchant signed the service. in progress."
The judge nodded slightly and saw the lawyer of Yama standing up, without hesitation: "When the merchant registered, Yama had the relevant agreement and clearly stated on it that Yama had the right to punish all accounts." He laughed, " We are just removing the shelves in accordance with the platform agreement, and the reason for removing the shelves is not because of warnings, but because of the abnormal quality of the merchant’s products, and we have the right to remove the shelves."
The Amazon shops sitting in the back row are as dark as charcoal, and their quality is abnormal? !
"Fake, he's just farting!"
"He has no right to deal with our account at all."
The Yama Legal Affairs Department presented the electronic agreement that the merchant must sign when he moved in. It clearly stated that Party A has the right to interpret everything, and Party B only enjoys the right to use the gift!
Do you think it is your account?
No!
It's on the platform! !
Gong Xijin's face did not change, but just asked a question.
"Is the platform agreement higher than the U.S. constitution?"
"The Constitution is above everything else" judge gave the answer.
"Yama provides advertising services to all merchants, selling different traffic services for US$500, US$1,000, and US$1,600 per month. If Yama believes that the merchant's account belongs to it, it should withdraw the money purchased by the merchant."
"No one is willing to give wealth to others for free unless it is a transaction." Gong Xijin looked at the lawyer opposite with a bad face and smiled slightly, "If Yama does not regard it as a transaction with the account, please Yama. Refund all advertising fees.”
Refund advertising fees?
How is that possible? ! Who will spit it out if you eat it!
The blonde lawyer smiled and said, "We provide services to users, and of course they are also voluntarily, and we provide value to them."
“Does Yama agree with the essence of transactions with merchants.”
The Yama Legal Affairs Department frowned, and they whispered in a low voice. Someone asked: "The game company also provides relevant services to its users, and the game account is also owned by the game platform. I don't think this is a transaction."
"FPS never refuses players to trade weapons and encourages transactions. Whether it can be regarded as the game account as the player's personal property."
“…”
The scene was silent for a few seconds, and the judge said, "If the merchant purchases the relevant services and pays the amount, Yama needs to provide the promised services, and you have signed the contract."
This has formed a transaction and is regarded as a contract!
The judge determined that the jury next to him also nodded.
"But in fact, Amazon did not provide it." Gong Xijin's mouth raised, "He did not pay the advertising traffic paid by 237 merchants, and accordingly, cut it. This is evidence." With a thick stack of submissions to the three parties, the judge, , jury, defendant.
"I accused Yama of breach of basic contract liability and deemed to be a breach of contract. We have the right to recover compensation and mental damages. At the same time, we should make up for the missing traffic."
"I don't agree!!" The blonde lawyer's face turned red, "The evidence you submitted is just a comparison between the pictures and has no substance! This kind of evidence cannot be adopted at all! The platform is not responsible for the merchant's sales!"
"Then please provide the official traffic flow record for one year, and we have the right to request it!"
A basin of cold water poured down directly, and the blonde lawyer woke up instantly. It was naturally impossible to leak confidential matters such as traffic operations, and it was not a trivial matter such as consulting the account name.
"Dear Judge, I request enforcement."
The elderly judge nodded and looked at the defendant: "Mr. Hayden Jonson, you should submit this statement."
"Mr. Hayden Jonson, I am worried that Yama will treat different customers differently. Please provide relevant data for all merchants."
"Yama cannot infringe on the privacy of merchants." Hayden Jonson looked ugly, and Gong Xijin asked back: "The platform has the right to dispose of all accounts, how to infringe on it? All accounts belong to Yama. How to call your own things? Infringement? ”
"…The merchant's account has the right to be regulated by the merchant. Yama needs to obtain their approval."
