Cosma Empire

On the steps outside the Supreme Court of the Empire, two polite gentlemen stood in the corner smoking a cigarette. Many reporters came down the steps, but there were not many people who planned to demonstrate.

"This is not the same as our previous plan..." One of the older men took a puff of cigarettes, looking indifferently at the scattered people under the steps who couldn't even gather signs, shivering in the cold wind .

He looked at those people shivering, which inexplicably made him feel so cold. He shook his shoulders, and the heat that he naturally exhaled when he spoke was already enough to be seen.

The cold air from the north and south hit the imperial capital immediately, and the temperature suddenly dropped by more than ten degrees, and there will be a continuous cooling process.

Judging from the current observations and guesses of the weather by the Meteorological Bureau, this year's winter will be warmer than previous winters. It's blind.

Aside from the unreliable weather station staff, the two gentlemen always had a hint of worry hidden in their eyes. In fact, there have been several major changes and disturbances in their plans.

In the previous plan, today there will be a very large number of demonstrators holding anti-war and humanitarian signs and demonstrating outside the court. In this way, they will put pressure on the judge and the jury.

According to the interpretation and regulations of the Ministry of Justice of the Empire and the law, the vast majority of the members of the jury are from the bottom of society, and most of them are illiterate.

They will not have a high degree of education, nor will they have any interest in any plaintiff or defendant who may decide the outcome through their opinion vote. Enthusiasm and seriousness are mainly for the subsidy of five yuan per case and a week of food and housing.

As long as they are randomly selected to be jury members in a certain case, especially those who are influential, or when both parties are relatively well-known people or organizations.

They will enjoy at least one week's free food and lodging trip, completely isolated from the outside world, and the subsidies will increase.

The most important thing is the free food and lodging for at least one week. This is the most attractive point. There are a variety of dishes that can be eaten without restriction. To many people, this is like winning a lottery, even winning a lottery It is better without such treatment, which is why people are willing to sign up.

These jury members didn't know the specific circumstances of each case before they appeared in court, and they didn't know the origins of both parties, and then began to wait.

Twenty-four hours before the trial, the defense lawyers of both sides got some information forms of the jury members for selection.

For example, the age, gender, occupation, religion, occupation and some simple but necessary introductions of a candidate for jury, such as personality and the like.

The names of any jury members to be selected and their contact information will not be mentioned above. The first job of the lawyers of both parties before the trial is to select no less than three batches of jury members.

They need to select the candidates who can make up at least three batches of members according to the detailed introduction on the list without names, and then hand it over to the court for the next step.

The court will redistribute the three or more groups of people evenly after breaking up,

This is to minimize possible fraudulent issues.

For example, Duhring is very famous. If he expresses his "respect" to the jury members in certain ways on certain occasions, it is likely to change the overall decision of the jury members. At this time, the opposing lawyer has the right to propose Request a jury change.

It is not that such a thing has never happened. There is a very famous lawsuit in the history of the empire. The specific content has been included in the stage of keeping the public secret, but people know that the reason for this lawsuit is not the lawsuit itself.

It was the troubles caused by the legal teams of both parties on the selection of jury members. They changed a dozen or so jury members, and there is another saying that more than twenty jury members were changed, and the purpose was to Make sure that one party can win the lawsuit as much as possible.

Although the lawsuit ended in a somewhat unique, no-one-wins-no-loses comical way—out of a large group of defendants, only one pleaded guilty and served time, while the others were acquitted.

This shows how important the jury is to the outcome in this very, very important case.

In order to influence these jury members, Harry spent money to hire a lot of people to promise to hold demonstrations outside the court before the trial today. impression.

However, it seems that their plan has encountered some setbacks. There are not a large number of people gathered here for demonstrations. Compared with cheap fried chicken and bread, these people are actually more concerned about the activities of the Labor Party.

Not only fried chicken and beer, but also said to have the opportunity to find a permanent job, the attraction here is not as good as before.

Another slightly shorter gentleman also nodded his head and agreed, "It's true. The Imperial Party and the Labor Party have already stolen the limelight. People are more concerned about the activities being held by the Imperial Party and the Labor Party. They care about our affairs. It's not that much of a concern anymore."

"Durin's luck is good, but his luck can't last forever. Today is the day when his luck will end!"

The two smoked their cigarettes full of confidence and returned to the courtroom. Even in the courtroom, many people were discussing the possible impact of the newly emerged imperialist party and the Labor Party on the empire. In some people's eyes, this lawsuit is no longer So important.

Regardless of whether Duhring will fall or not, his impact on the empire is far less than that of the two newly established political parties on the empire.

Du Lin did not attend this trial, and left it to the legal team to deal with it. He also had to deal with other matters-the Labor Party's affairs.

In the development plan of Ambiluo State, Durin did not join the idea of ​​industrial development, and also moved some heavily polluting chemical and heavy factories away from here, but this does not mean that there is no working class in Ambilao State .

Some light industries, such as handicraft manufacturers, garment factories, and various light industry factories are still very common in Ambiluo State.

Human beings are the most complex intelligent creatures of the social type, and sometimes even humans themselves cannot figure out what the behavior of other humans means.

A number of workers have been mobilized under the liaison of the Labor Party, including some labor service resource companies.

This kind of activity is not necessarily a desire to do something great, it is purely that the enthusiasm of the people in the west, which can melt the sun, has found a way to vent.

The reason why Dooling is staring at this matter is not mainly because he is afraid that these farmers and cowboys will oppose his policies, but because he is afraid that those people in the Labor Party may be in danger of life.
