MTL - Black Iron’s Glory-Chapter 577 Embarrassing lawsuit
Chapter 577 Awkward Lawsuit
Claude decided to accompany his mother in this lawsuit. He believed that when his mother brought his sister, Anna, and his brother, Brovik, to the Royal Court of the Kingdom, he had already realized the affair. The Kingdom Aristocracy Tribunal is responsible for hearing conflicts between the kingdom aristocracy and division of inheritance. It is the first time that a mother, such as her mother, has sued her three children for filial piety and demanded that they repay her family's huge loan debt.
In general, most of the cases heard in the courts of the kingdom aristocracy are cases of children competing for inheritance and title after the unexpected death of a kingdom noble. But the case against the mother of Lord Marshal Claude's mother who sued their children really caused them headaches. There is no such precedent! The lawsuit was dismissed twice, but his mother refused to give up, and submitted it again after amendment.
Count Claude ’s mother and three children were originally from the same family, but her Majesty the King intervened and seized Claude ’s deceased father as the Viscount of the Kingdom, so his mother removed himself and his eldest son from Count Claude. His family was separated and became another family. I now ask the three counts of Earl Claude to bear the huge loan debts of this family clan, which is another family land. No matter how it looks, it seems that there is something wrong, but there is no reason ...
The third lawsuit filed only emphasized the mother's nurturing grace to the three brothers and sisters, and asked the three brothers and sisters to acknowledge their parents' love for them and take the initiative to protect the family. The territories make their due contribution to the huge loan of one million kronor owed in order to secure the family territories. The reason why the three counts of Earl Claude were to bear the debt is simple. They are rich and their families are poor.
This is an alternative way of robbing the rich and helping the poor, in which mothers force their children to assume repayment responsibilities and obligations for debts that do not belong to them. The court judges of the Royal Court of Nobility are talking a lot, and are preparing to dismiss the lawsuit again and declare it inadmissible. Because they think that once such an example is opened, there will be loopholes in the laws of the Kingdom. The first heir to the title can fully spread the family debt to his brothers and sisters, which will cause a very bad impact.
But at this time, the justices were entrusted one after another, asking the Royal Court of Nobility to take the case. After a careful inquiry, it was known that many high-ranking people in the kingdom were dissatisfied with Count Claude's disdainful attitude towards the kingdom, and were prepared to give him an embarrassment and humiliation in this case. The mother's complaint was the result of these high-level people behind the scenes ...
This is related to the face of the kingdom's high-level officials. It is said that as the Marshal of the Kingdom, Crowd, as the supreme military director of the overseas autonomous command zone, has repeatedly destroyed Wang Ting's plans for the overseas autonomous command. The Autonomous Territory has left the Kingdom's Army and Admiralty behind, leaving it alone, with hidden signs of independence. In terms of strategy, Wang Tingnai's autonomous region must not, but it does not prevent private morality from reducing Marshal Crowd's personal influence on the autonomous region.
So Claude soon received a letter from the Royal Court of the Kingdom, asking him to appear in Wangdu in a trial of the case three months later. The reason for this long delay is that the mother did not sue him alone, including her younger sister Anna and his younger brother Brovik. The court also required to submit the notice of appearance to them. It took such a long time to go back and forth to the overseas dominion.
The news spread quickly. Like General Scree, most members of the Dominion heard of the news and wrote letters to condolence Claude and make suggestions. On the other hand, Speaker Bennett went to Wang Jingsheng's Hiprian City to have a meeting with Claude. He was originally a legal adviser and was regarded as the most proficient person in the Kingdom of overseas dominions. His advice to Claude was to plead guilty. Obey the sentence and settle the lawsuit.
Speaker Bennett told Claude that the case was not easy because it itself violated kingdom law. Instead of dismissing the lawsuit, the Kingdom Noble Court decided to put it on trial, which meant that it was very abnormal. If Claude decides to appear in court to fight this lawsuit, he will be dragged on endlessly by Wang Du for the case. The Kingdom Noble Tribunal can try every other month to ask Claude to appear in court. The longer the case is delayed, the more humiliation Claude suffers, and the longer the delay ...
"What about entrusting others to appear in court?" Claude didn't want to go to Wangdu.
"There is only one case for entrusting others to appear in court, that is, when the case is finished and the verdict is to be pronounced." Speaker Bennett told Claude very seriously that the trial process of the kingdom aristocracy court must be confronted by both the plaintiff and the defendant in order to testify. effective. So Crowd had to appear in court if he wanted to get a lawsuit with his mother, and his appearance meant shame on him.
Claude can't ignore the case, even if he thinks his mother is making an unreasonable trouble, he must go to Wang Du's court to confront his mother and refute his allegations of filial piety. If he is unwilling to appear in court, his mother will win in this case. Claude will not only suffer blame, but also bear the huge debt of one million kronor. He will also need to accept the decision of the Royal Court of Nobility. Will have a great negative impact on his reputation.
"Perhaps many people hope that you will not appear in court, so that they can unscrupulously pour dirty water on you. Even if you have been staying overseas, they will still make up lies for you in Wangdu. Because your mother this time The complaint is the case of the mother and the child that the kingdom has never had. If you do not respond, the reputation of filial piety will be set aside. People who do not understand the truth will think that your three siblings are really wrong. . "
Speaker Bennett also did not recommend that Claude go to Wang Du to make a right or wrong with his mother. He believes that this is likely to be a conspiracy against Claude. Use this lawsuit to trap Crowd in the capital. No time to take care of the development and affairs of the autonomous region. If this lawsuit takes two years, it means that Claude must stay in the capital for two years and cannot escape. If there is any change in the autonomous region, Claude cannot take care of it.
"So I suggest that you plead guilty and entrust others to go to court to represent you in the king's court. You will be punished at the first trial and pay the money to settle the lawsuit. The advantage of this is that you can propose to split the relationship between the two Field families In the future, your mother and your elder brother's family will not be involved in anything. Because your mother tells you that she has cut off the relationship with your mother and son, and bought out the nurturing grace with your three siblings with money. ... "
Speaker Bennett said that it is very reasonable. In order to avoid disputes in the future after the previous case of noble children competing for family property, the kingdom aristocracy court will split the kinship between the two sides and cut off the blood relationship between the plaintiff and the defendant in case of future What's the matter. Therefore, Claude can also make a request to the Royal Court of the Kingdom this time to cut off the kinship between the two sides, so that he will not be involved in the family of his mother and brother.
Crowd felt so distressed and tired. After thinking for a few days, he finally decided to adopt the proposal of Speaker Bennett, so he wrote to his sister Anna and brother Browick, and told the whole of the lawsuit. The process also explained the measures and countermeasures that he was going to take, and then let an iron destroyer send his two letters to the overseas dominion.
Fortunately, apart from some troubles brought by this lawsuit, the situation in Hicks Kingdom has not changed, and it is still in accordance with Claude's strategic layout. Even though the ten counties in the west were annexed by three neighboring countries, the Grand Duke of the North had little movement. According to the plan, Claude led the troops to evacuate the city of King Hiprian of King Jing, and the army of the Grand Duke of Sunset River recovered the Hicks ’capital the next day. Great victory ...
By the end of January, the light of the year 6606 arrived at the port of Patkara. The armored destroyer sent Claude two replies and two powers of attorney to his sister Anna and his brother Brovik. Sister Anna's reply was distressed by her mother's stubbornness and obsession, and she hated her three siblings in court. In her letter, she stated that she would stand with Claude, re-establish a Han Field family, and sever a relationship with the Sand Field family.
The reply from his brother Brovik was simple. He said that the mother who loved herself had already passed away. He had gone to the household registration department to restore Hanfield's surname. He did not recognize the Sanfield family and his relatives. In addition to the reply, there are two full powers of attorney, and Claude is responsible for the settlement of the lawsuit. They will assume the victory and defeat of the lawsuit with Claude, and the three will bear it regardless of the outcome ..... .
Claude also wrote a power of attorney, and then handed all three powers of attorney to Speaker Bennett, who would appear in court instead of the three brothers and sisters of Claude. The lawsuit was concluded at the first trial. In this way, although Claude lost the lawsuit and lost a lot of money, he got rid of his stubborn mother and the conceited elder brother Albert. It may be easier in the future.
On February 25, the aristocratic court of Wangdu opened a hearing to hear the case against the mother of the Field family, and the nobles of Wangdu were full of auditoriums. No one had expected that Speaker Bennett would replace the three brothers and sisters Claude. After the Justice read the mother's lawsuit, Speaker Bennett stood up and presented the power of attorney for the three brothers and sisters, and represented Claude. The three brothers and sisters pleaded guilty and were willing to bear the loan debt of millions of kronor ...
But at the same time, Speaker Bennett said that Claude's mother had more than three children and Albert, the eldest son of the Sandfield family, so the debt of one million kronor should be shared by four children, each of whom You have to pay back a quarter. This request was very reasonable. No judge disagreed, and even Claude's mother could not put forward different opinions. Therefore, the three brothers and sisters of Claude were judged in court to help repay the debt of 750,000 kronor.
Then Speaker Bennett proposed that since the creditor of this debt was Her Majesty the Queen, the three siblings of Claude would pay directly to Her Majesty without having to change hands through her mother. After all, such a large amount was not transferred to her mother. It is safe, so the agents in court and Her Majesty are required to settle the debt clearly. This proposal was very secure, so Speaker Bennett presented 75 bills of 10,000 kronor from Overseas Minsheng Bank in court, settled clearly with his queen's agent, and printed a receipt certificate.
Finally, Speaker Bennett asked the court to split the blood relationship between the Sand Fields and the Han Fields. This demand met with strong opposition and protest from her mother, who believed that her mother-child relationship with the three siblings of Crowd must be maintained. She is their biological mother, and this blood relationship is not divisible by the court.
However, the trial judge held that since the three brothers and sisters had taken on their mothers huge debts that did not belong to them, it means that they had fulfilled their responsibilities as children. On the contrary, the mother's suing of their three brothers and sisters in court means that the relationship has been severed. In order to prevent the Sang Field family from endlessly drawing blood from the Han Field family, the court cut off the blood relationship between the two Field families in accordance with the usual rules. Today the two Field families no longer have any relationship.
No one expected that this mother-sue case would end so quickly. Even those who designed this case did not expect that the three brothers and sisters of Claude would give in so quickly, repay the debts in court, and split up. The blood relationship between the two Field families also means that Crowd's mother can no longer be used to make it difficult for Crowd.
Suddenly, the kingdom's top officials involved in the case were caught by surprise. According to their thinking, after all, this is related to the debt of one million kronor. The three brothers and sisters of Claude should turn their heads with their mothers and settle a lawsuit for this huge debt for several years. You know, let alone millions, thousands of kronor can make father and son enemies.
It is a coincidence that because of this precedent of mother-in-law, Kingdom aristocrats who are good at digging into the air will naturally not miss such a great opportunity. In the next few months, various cases of brothers and brothers, family separation and family separation, fathers and mothers have emerged in an endless stream, all asking their relatives to share their debts, and they are required to follow the mother to child case. Fine.
The aristocratic courts of the Kingdom were extremely embarrassed by these cases, so let ’s not answer them. There was this case of Claude ’s mother in the past. The original unreasonable case was brought to court by the top officials of the kingdom. As a result, they are now sitting. Wax. The cases that followed were not as straightforward as those of the three brothers and sisters of Claude. In order for a few hundred to three hundred crowns to be able to fight a lawsuit for two or three years, the case was very loud, and the entire newspaper and tabloid newspapers in Wangdu have published these cases. Unfair call ...
When people looked into it, they discovered that the original case of the mother and the child was very unreasonable and abnormal. If anyone wanted to stir up anyway, no one could give Claude an explanation. After all, their three siblings paid 750,000 kronor, Who should pay this money is a difficult problem. But if this case is not corrected, the following cases will be judged in accordance with this precedent, which will give a big question mark to the kingdom's justice, and no justice can afford this responsibility.
The most uncomfortable thing is Claude's mother and eldest brother Albert. Even if the three siblings of Claude paid three-quarters of their huge debts, the Sangfield family still owed a loan of 250,000 kronor to her queen. The annual interest rate of 5% is also 12,500 kronor. And the annual gain of the Viscount territory they received was less than 10,000 kronor, which means that once the three-year interest-free period is reached, they are still unable to make ends meet, and there is still a threat of confiscated titles and territories by the kingdom.
The Royal Court of Justice ruled and divided the blood relationship between the two Field families, which also means that they will no longer be able to receive Clinton's asylum and assistance. This time, the three brothers and sisters of Lord Crowd were brought to the kingdom aristocracy court. Although some people provoked behind them, the mother and Albert did not lack the thought of taking a bite from the three brothers and sisters of Lord Claude. It was just that the judgment disappointed them. Even if the three brothers and sisters of Claude confessed to defeat, they still did not even handle a single King Cron, and still owed a quarter of the huge debt.
In order to fight this lawsuit, his mother and Albert returned to the capital from the family territory, and lived in the mansion given by His Majesty the King. With Claude's last funding of 10,000 kronor, his mother and Albert began to spend extra money, hired legal counsel, and drew relationships to ensure that this lawsuit would win. As a result, three months later, the lawsuit was won, but their situation has not changed. Instead, they have spent almost 10,000 kronor around them.
Therefore, Speaker Bennett came to the door and asked their mother and son to pay for the maintenance of the White Hart Field Family Mansion that Claude paid for them in recent years, as well as the salary of the housekeeper's servants. As far as he is concerned, he is unwilling to pay these several hundred kronor. The final solution was that they sold the mansion in White Hart City to Speaker Bennett for more than two thousand crowns ...
After this lawsuit ended, the Hicks Kingdom Raiders also came to an end. The next step is to gradually transport the military migrants gathered in Port Patkara to the overseas autonomous territories. Claude sent the list of meritorious service officers to the Kingdom of the Hicks Kingdom to the Ministry of the Army, and soon received a notice asking Claude to go to the capital to participate in the celebration ceremony held by His Majesty the King, and stated that Lord will be promoted to hereditary marquis of the kingdom by his Majesty at the celebration party ...
Claude threw the notice into the trash can and asked Lieutenant Captain Fahselin to send a letter of seal to the Kingdom Army, saying that Marshal Claude felt cold and refused to attend the celebration ceremony held by Wang Du. After the news came out, the fighters of the Thunder Army and the Storm Army under the autonomous command zone followed suit, all of them refused to go to the King to participate in any celebration ...
