Guest sharing
Yu ************rector of Zhiheng Longgang Criminal Legal Affairs Department
Director Yu Qingfeng analyzed the common procedural obstacles in the process of criminal defense through cases, such as the conflicts that may be caused by the application for recusal, the exclusion of illegal evidence, and the appearance of witnesses in court, and proposed that procedural justice is the cornerstone of ensuring substantive justice. Lawyers should raise objections when facing unreasonable procedural decisions and safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the parties through legal and reasonable means.
Zhiheng Former Member of the Maritime Management Committee and Director of the Criminal Center Peng Lei
Director Peng Lei shared the theme of "Conflict and Response in the Relationship between Apology and Trial", analyzing the deep reasons for the conflict between adjudication and trial from the two dimensions of system design and practice operation. He said that the main reason for the conflict between adjudication and trial is that judicial independence has not been truly realized. There are widespread problems in judicial practice that prioritize entities over procedures, and the problems of the legal profession itself have led to the fragmentation of the legal professional community.
So, how to deal with conflicts? Director Peng Lei concluded that it is necessary to learn to think from a different perspective and establish a two-way punishment mechanism, and the legal profession should also improve self-discipline.
Luo Wenlong, Director of Zhiheng Shanghai Criminal and Legal Affairs Department
Director Luo Wenlong took a case of dereliction of duty by a government official to sign and perform a contract as an example, shared practical experience on the conflict and response of the trial, and detailed the details and effective practical experience of many games with the court and procuratorial organs in the process of case handling. Director Luo Wenlong pointed out that lawyers need not only professional ability, but also keen judgment to choose strategies to maximize the interests of the parties.
Mai Zhuolin, Director of Zhiheng Dongguan Criminal Legal Affairs Department
Director Mai Zhuolin made an in-depth analysis of the conflicts and responses from the perspectives of evidence, legal point of view, and trial procedure on the theme of "How to deal with the three major conflicts between the defense and the prosecution and trial in the trial", and summarized the coping strategies with examples. Director Mai Zhuolin said that with law as the sword and reason as the shield, on the scale of the law, the defense and the prosecution and trial are both opponents and partners, working together to maintain the balance of justice.
Criminal defense lawyers should not only know how to respond flexibly, but also adhere to principles.
Liu Jian, Deputy Director of Zhiheng Xi'an Management Committee and Director of Criminal Center
Director Liu Jian shared the issue of property criminal defense and enforcement, and deeply analyzed the execution of criminal cases involving property issues, the significance of paying attention to property criminal defense, the significance of execution priority and the significance of public law creditor's rights. Director Liu Jian concluded that criminal defense is not only a legal business, but also an important field for safeguarding legal authority and protecting human rights. Criminal defense lawyers must lay a solid professional foundation in order to better safeguard the rights and interests of the parties.
Wei Yuanwen, Deputy Director of Zhiheng Guangzhou Management Committee and Director of Criminal Department
Director Wei Yuanwen shared his case handling practice entitled "Reflection and Response on the Non-Conflict of Arguments and Trials", analyzing the phenomenon of precision justice and court trial non-conflict and defense migration in the context of high detention rate. Director Wei Yuanwen said that judicial precision will be a long-term doctrine of justice. In order to adapt to the new normal, criminal defense lawyers can improve their defense ability by strengthening procedural law research and improving trial expression skills. They should also take the initiative to communicate with the court to seek a balance, not only to strive for the interests of the parties, but also to maintain the cooperative relationship of the legal professional community.
Zhao Gang, Director of Zhiheng Xi'an Criminal Litigation Department
Director Zhao Gang starts with the trend of judicial reform and analyzes the important role of criminal defense in achieving judicial fairness. With the continuous improvement of the legal environment, the field of criminal defense will usher in higher professional requirements and more opportunities, which requires lawyers to continuously improve their own literacy to adapt to the challenges of increasingly complex cases and environments.
