Chapter 9: Chapter 9 Using the Judgment as Evidence, Huh?



For such cases, they generally wouldn\'t file at first, simply advising you to seek mediation first.

It worked out well, as there were no litigation fees to pay, and he even managed to snag some free printing at the court\'s filing counter, quite comfortably.

Once everything at the court was settled, Tang Fangjing left and began to search for the location of Bright District\'s Labor Monitoring Brigade and then realized it seemed to be right next to the Labor Arbitration Committee.

What a coincidence it wasn\'t, while these two brothers look quite similar, they are completely different institutions with entirely different areas of management.

One deals with illegal and non-compliant situations, while the other arbitrates labor disputes.

So, in some more significant labor dispute cases, these two brothers would work together—one arbitrating and the other looking for your illegal actions—phenomenally efficient, far surpassing any court\'s enforcement efficiency...

Upon arriving at the building housing the Labor Monitoring Brigade, he quickly found the appropriate window for filing a complaint.

"What do you wish to report? The company adopted a flexible working system without approval? Comrade, you need evidence for such allegations..."

The staff had not yet finished speaking when they saw the young man outside handing over a document, and upon inspection, they were dumbfounded.

"A judgment from Guangming District Court?"

Tang Fangjing smiled and said, "Yes, comrade, it\'s a judgment, fresh, about half an hour fresh from being pronounced."

Staff: "..." Could it be that I\'m too uptight?

Outside, Tang Fangjing continued, "This document makes it very clear during the court\'s investigation phase, producing direct evidence that the flexible working system was adopted without approval."

Although in the judgment it was only a few lines, it was definitely true—otherwise, it meant the other party had lied in court, committing perjury...

Looking at the young man again, the staff member, who had worked in the Labor Monitoring Department for years, had never encountered such a clever tactic.

The staff member casually flipped through the judgment and was shocked when he saw the final decision.

Two years of work leading to six hundred thousand in overtime pay? And considerate?

Now he\'s using the judgment as evidence to file a report?

Truly heart-wrenching, the owner of Bluebird Company must be flabbergasted...

"Alright, your evidence is surely sufficient. You may go back now, and we will notify you when we have a result," said the staff member while keeping a copy of the evidence and speaking.

With that done, Tang Fangjing turned to go home, as he had only one month left until the legal exam and needed to prepare diligently.

At the same time, inside the Chairman\'s Office at Bluebird Company, Chairman Hu sat in his executive chair, looking at Elder Zhang and Manager Liu, saying, "We lost? How could we lose this case?"

"Elder Zhang, didn\'t you say that the other party didn\'t know squat, that the advantage was ours, what happened?"

Elder Zhang hastily replied, "Chairman Hu, this... it\'s not a matter of expertise. It\'s possible that the first-instance court was biased towards the worker, but I have appealed, and we should be able to win on the second try..."

"What if we lose the second trial too?" Chairman Hu\'s face looked particularly grim.

Of course, he had also thought about it. If all the departments in the company were operating this way and they all came asking for overtime pay, what to do then!

Seeing that Elder Zhang dared not speak, Chairman Hu sighed, and next to him, Director Wang suggested, "Chairman Hu, why don\'t we hire a professional labor dispute attorney? Elder Zhang is really not cut out for this…"

Being called a blunt knife, Elder Zhang clenched his fists even tighter, especially since their opponent wasn\'t even a lawyer, claiming to have studied law at a sports college—if it weren\'t for the law, he would really want to punch someone!

A professional lawyer was quickly found, recommended by Director Wang, reportedly a friend of his and a very specialized kind of lawyer.

After meeting, Chairman Hu was also satisfied, having heard that this lawyer had handled many big cases before and was not someone you could usually hire.

In such a jubilant atmosphere, the time for the second trial arrived.

Inside the Civil Chamber of Jingzhou City Intermediate People\'s Court, Chairman Hu, sitting in the gallery, felt his face go numb as he listened to the judgment.

He was the boss, that\'s true, but a boss doesn\'t understand everything. He just didn\'t get it—despite hiring such a powerful lawyer, who indeed worked very hard, why did they still lose the case!

```

That\'s right, to prevent the bewildering loss from last time, he had come specifically to attend the hearing, only to witness that his lawyer was clearly dominating the entire time, even leaving Tang Fangjing tongue-tied, yet they still lost the case.

How could this be possible!

Tang Fangjing sat there, rubbing his belly from time to time, feeling extremely uncomfortable, incredibly so, he desperately needed the system\'s vitality!

As a result, he barely spoke during the second trial, and there was no need to—besides, the moment he saw the opposing lawyer, he knew this was one of the popular so-called "die-hard" lawyers of the time.

Of course, this was giving them too much credit, calling it die-hard was just about putting up an overly diligent front, but was it effective? No, winning lawsuits wasn\'t about that.

But for lawyers, it didn\'t matter. As long as they got paid, losing was always due to some conspiracy...

This led to a situation where the opposition was rambling on non-stop, while he was slacking off, yet won the lawsuit, which was enough to almost give General Manager Hu a stroke from rage.

The court rejected the appeal, upheld the original verdict, and as the gavel struck down, General Manager Hu could no longer hold back.

"Lawyer Li, what\'s going on here, this…"

The opponent, Lawyer Li, was a top barrister who could only shake his head helplessly and said, "General Manager Hu, there\'s nothing I can do. You saw it all, under these circumstances, they still won…"

Seeing the opponent giving the "it\'s a fix" look, General Manager Hu burst out furiously, "The other side is just a worker, what kind of connections could he have, goddammit, they all talk big, what nonsense!"

This time Lawyer Li lost his patience and yelled back, "What do you mean? This is a lawsuit; who can guarantee a win for you? Are you sick in the head!"

Just as General Manager Hu was about to say something, his phone rang. Picking it up, he saw it was his secretary.

"What? The labor inspection team is here? No, do they think I\'m an easy target or what… an irregular work system?"

Especially when he found out that the evidence from the labor inspectorate was provided by his own legal department, he felt like he was going to explode.

Lawyer Li had already left while the other party was on the phone, being an old slicker with lots of experience.

After hanging up and not seeing Lawyer Li, just then Manager Liu stepped forward, "General Manager Hu, about us…"

Manager Liu was cut off before he could finish his sentence: "Elder Liu, what good deed have you done? Why did you fire him, huh? Even if you had to fire him, couldn\'t you have settled the compensation beforehand?"

"Enough, I don\'t think you should stick around either. Tomorrow, pack your things and leave!"

Hearing this, Manager Liu was stunned.

Just as he had lectured Tang Fangjing before, he too was working overtime.

And he seized every opportunity to show off how hard he worked in front of the leaders, but General Manager Hu didn\'t care about any of that when firing him, as if there was no difference between him and Tang Fangjing.

"No... General Manager Hu, I did it all for the company, you can\'t…"

"Don\'t you understand what I\'m saying? I\'m telling you to get out. Without you, how could there be all these troubles? Still for the company, just leave, understand?"

Having said his piece, General Manager Hu left with a dark expression, leaving only Manager Liu dazed on the spot.

Tang Fangjing watched this scene unfold clearly and shook his head. Some people, having worked for a long time, always believe they\'ve become one with the company.

But the fact is, a worker is still a worker, even if you\'re some kind of leader, you\'re just a worker of a higher grade.

However, the owner of Bluebird Company was a tad too emotional. Wasn\'t it just double happiness, why be so angry?

If only he was a lawyer now...

...

At the Bright District Labor Arbitration Committee, people like Sister Wang and Ma Yao were already aware of the second trial\'s outcome.

Indeed, they were stunned by the first trial\'s result, especially when they learned that the young man had won the lawsuit on his own without hiring a lawyer.

Six hundred thousand, he actually won! The key is that this case will definitely become a guiding case in the future, meaning that even so-called invisible overtime must be compensated!

At this moment, the judgment had already been posted online, causing an immediate sensation.

"Should replying to WeChat messages after work count as overtime? The court has ruled!"
