Li Lin's words came to an abrupt end here.

His breathing became more and more rapid, and his chest heaved.

He was clearly angry.

In his view, the court was not fair at all.

Why should Jiang Chen's word be law?

If he's really being unreasonable, then why not let him and Jiang Chen go outside and have a one-on-one man-versus-man battle!

Let's see who can stand until the end!

His decision not to continue speaking proves that he still has some sense.

The emotions were only on the verge of spiraling out of control, but were still manageable.

But when these words reached other people's ears, they took on a different meaning.

In the audience, many people stared at Li Lin in disbelief.

His eyes were full of astonishment.

Their thinking was very simple.

Brother, what do you think this place is?!

You even threatened the plaintiff's lawyer in front of the presiding judge!

Some people are bold enough to touch three-phase electricity, but they wouldn't dare say this in front of the judge!

Many people looked at Li Lin with pity.

It's often said that emotions are the most important thing in court.

Especially in front of the presiding judge!

Uncontrolled emotions will only deduct points, while restrained and sincere emotions will add points.

The presiding judge is also an ordinary person, and his free evaluation of evidence relies on subjective credibility.

after all……

The principle of free evaluation of evidence applies to both civil and criminal proceedings in my country.

What the presiding judge values ​​most is credible facts, plus a stable and trustworthy image of the parties involved!

Li Lin revealed this volatile and agitated state in front of the presiding judge.

How can I win the judge's favor?

On the plaintiff's side.

Sheng Zhubao looked at Li Lin with a strange expression.

"Attorney Jiang, what's wrong with him...?"

Jiang Chen simply smiled faintly and replied in a low voice.

"Maybe he doesn't like me, so he stabbed himself in the back to scare me..."

In court, there are quite a few people who try to trip up or stab their opponents in the back.

But this is the first person to raise a knife and cut themselves!

Sheng Zhubao nodded thoughtfully.

The look in her eyes as she looked at Li Lin held a hint of sympathy.

The outcome of this lawsuit seems to be a foregone conclusion.

As for the judges on the bench, there was neither the presiding judge Cao Zhenbang nor the other four judges.

They all had dark expressions on their faces.

Their professional ethics dictate that they must remain calm regardless of what the plaintiff or defendant says.

The viewers in the live stream room were already in an uproar.

Holy crap! This guy's got guts!

Saying these things in front of the presiding judge? Does he think he hasn't been sentenced enough?!

I've seen people reduce their sentences before, but this is the first time I've seen someone increase theirs!

【What? Life's not going well, so you want to clock in at jail?】

[We're out of options. The defense attorney is still Jiang Chen. In this situation, even if the King of Heaven himself came, he couldn't turn the tide!]

Boom!

Cao Zhenbang brought his gavel down heavily.

"Defendant Li Lin, please immediately cease your threatening remarks!"

Cao Zhenbang's voice was slightly angry.

"The courtroom is a place for adjudicating cases according to law, and neither party is allowed to verbally intimidate, physically threaten, or retaliate against the other!"

"Your statement just now constitutes a threat to the plaintiff and is a serious violation of court discipline!"

"This court is now issuing you a verbal warning. Please control your emotions immediately and behave appropriately!"

"Opinions may only be expressed regarding the facts, evidence, and law of this case; no insulting, threatening, or attacking language may be used!"

At this point, Cao Zhenbang turned to look at the clerk.

"Court clerk, record the defendant's threatening words and actions towards the plaintiff in their entirety in the court transcript!"

"If the defendant refuses to obey the court's instructions, this court will, in accordance with the law, reprimand you, order you to leave the courtroom, and if the circumstances are serious, may impose a fine or judicial detention of up to fifteen days!"

Furthermore, if Li Lin went even further, it could constitute a criminal offense.

He will also be held criminally liable for disrupting court order in accordance with the law!

Upon hearing this, Li Lin clenched his fists, his face turning almost red.

He wanted to argue back, but the bailiffs nearby had already moved to the defendant's seat.

If Li Lin continues to vent his emotions, Cao Zhenbang will likely order him to be expelled from the court immediately!

Once that happens, then there is truly no way to reverse the situation!

Li Lin took a deep breath and nodded.

I managed to calm myself down.

"I understand, okay? I won't say anything."

Why are you yelling so loudly?!

Cao Zhenbang's pupils narrowed slightly, and his face darkened.

The other four judges also had somewhat strange expressions.

Fortunately, Cao Zhenbang did not take it personally and suppressed his anger.

Viewers in the live stream couldn't help but chime in.

[Hahaha... Why are you starting to attack indiscriminately? You don't even respect the judge?]

He's completely out of control right now; he'd even curse at the dogs on the street!

[Hahaha... That's what it's like to be a boss. You've never had to be subservient to others before, so you definitely can't stand it!]

[With this level of skill, he's a boss? The bigger the boss, the more humble they are; they hide their true nature!]

So his MCN company is actually a small company!

Just then, Jiang Chen slowly stood up.

He glanced towards the defendant's dock, his gaze settling on Li Lin, and a smile played on his lips.

"Presiding Judge, Judges."

"We request that the defendant be calmed down, as any instability in the defendant's emotions will affect the progress of this case."

Hearing this, Cao Zhenbang was somewhat surprised.

The plaintiff... actually applied for appeasement of the defendant?

What are they trying to do?

Isn't the reason why the defendants are emotionally unstable because of you?

You guys even started offering comfort!

Such situations do indeed exist in court.

If the plaintiff truly wants to ease tensions and prevent the other party from losing control of their emotions and escalating the conflict, they can choose to comfort the defendant.

However, this is contingent upon obtaining the presiding judge's consent first, and then expressing oneself in a gentle manner.

Jiang Chen's actions were reasonable and compliant with regulations.

The presiding judge pondered for a moment and nodded: "The plaintiff's representative should speak in a neutral and restrained manner."

Jiang Chen smiled slightly and nodded.

Then, his gaze swept over the three defendants in the dock, and he slowly began to speak.

"The three of you, I can understand that it must be tough for you to go to court. Anyone would be emotional in that situation."

"I'm not trying to make things difficult for you."

"But... since we're sitting in court today, we hope to resolve this matter clearly and find a fair and reasonable solution. There's no need to argue with excessive emotions."

"Everyone, calm down and explain the facts clearly."

Hearing Jiang Chen's words, the presiding judge nodded slightly.

I originally thought Jiang Chen would make sarcastic remarks, but actually, what he said made a lot of sense.

But to the other person, it sounds different.

From Li Lin's perspective, Jiang Chen's words... were not meant to comfort them.

It's not that they're mocking them!

"If we're wrong, we should admit it; if we're going to be punished, we should stand at attention."

"The nation's judicial system will provide fairness and justice to each and every one of you..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Lin couldn't hold back any longer.

"Enough!!!!"
