Kyoto, Ritzton Hotel, Room 1306.

"The assigned chief judge is actually a student of Utsunomiya?!" Miyagawa looked at the "Notice of Collegiate Panel Members" in front of him, then turned to stare at the information about Judge Takanashi on his laptop, and couldn't help but be surprised.

"This is normal." Kitahara leaned back on the chair, closed his eyes and said, "After all, it is the court of Kyoto. Considering the influence of Kyoto University, it is not surprising that this university monopolizes the entire legal profession in the Kyoto area. I guess the court

More than 50% of the judges here are graduates of Kyoto University.”

"Do you want to apply for the judge's recusal?" Miyagawa raised his head and asked, "After all, Judge Takanashi is a monk student of Utsunomiya. As a student who was taught by him, I am afraid that many aspects of legal views will be deeply influenced by Utsunomiya."

Beiyuan stretched out his hand, pinched his eyebrows, and slowly relaxed his brows.

Things are indeed quite difficult to handle.

This is the trouble with litigating in Kyoto.

In the Kyoto area, one university dominates the entire Kansai region. Since Tokyo attracts talents from all over the country, there is extremely intense market competition. Even the University of Tokyo can hardly exert an almost monopolistic influence on the legal profession in a region.

.But Kyoto University is able to do this.

"Applying for a judge's recusal requires the existence of an interest," Kitahara said. "The teacher-student relationship alone is not enough to constitute a strong reason for recusal. It may be rejected. To say the least, even if we change it

Chief Referee. There are five intellectual property law teachers in the Kyoto University Faculty of Law. Even if they are not students of Utsunomiya, they are most likely students of other teachers."

"So, you can't hide what you should." Beiyuan said quietly.

Miyagawa sounded a little discouraged. This time, there was no precedent for the ancient book plagiarism case, and it happened to be an away game. The judge was a student of the lawyer opposite. To a certain extent, this time she and

Kitahara was fighting with the opposing lawyer and the judge at the same time.

If the judge is determined to side with her teacher, there is almost no way to deal with it.

After all, the opponent is a famous professor from the university.

Judging according to the legal opinions of famous professors will ensure that the basis of the judgment is watertight, at least on the surface.

The more Miyagawa thought about it, the more she felt that the future of the case was bleak. Litigation in the Kyoto area was more difficult than she had previously thought.

"I don't think there's any need to be so pessimistic." Kitahara looked at the computer screen in front of him and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "I seem to have found some interesting information about Judge Takanashi. Miyagawa, you can come over and take a look."

"What did Kitahara discover?" Miyagawa came over curiously.

But I saw a photo displayed on the computer screen. In the photo, a group of students were gathering for a protest. They were holding slogans. Judging from the content of the slogans, they were protesting against the school taking back two student dormitories and transforming them into

The campus hotel is used for conference reception. The number of people living in single rooms in the student dormitories in this area increases, and students will be forced to live in more crowded rooms.

Among this group of students, there is a female student with short hair who is particularly eye-catching. She looks dignified, even sweet, but she is wearing a headscarf and standing at the front of the protesting crowd, her eyes radiating

Her temperament is completely opposite to her appearance, revealing a heroic demeanor.

"This is my unexpected discovery." Kitahara said with a smile, "Is this photo a photo of a student protest at Kyoto University more than ten years ago, about the renovation and use of campus dormitories. Standing at the forefront of the student crowd,

It was Judge Takanashi who was studying to become a monk at that time.”

Kitahara picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and moistened his throat, "It seems that our Judge Takanashi is very enthusiastic about Kyoto University's campus affairs."

Miyagawa looked at the photo in front of him and opened his mouth slightly, as if he couldn't believe it. Who would have thought that the judge with the solemn and solemn photo on the court's website would also have such a high-spirited image when he was a student.

"Judge Takanashi and Utsunomiya have a teacher-student relationship, which is certainly not good for us." Kitahara picked up the resume information about Takanashi and read it, "But on the other hand, judging from the activities she participated in during her student days, it is obvious that she

He is a student who is keen to express his views on campus affairs and has the courage to face the school and express different views."

"The case of Associate Professor Shimokawa being plagiarized this time is not just a plagiarism incident." Kitahara's eyes became deep, "I believe that Judge Takanashi must have some thoughts on the radical policies that Vice President Takeuchi has implemented within the university in recent days.

Concern. Whether Judge Takanashi will be hindered from making a fair judgment because of her teacher-student relationship depends on whether her original intention has changed over the years."

Miyagawa stood aside, listening carefully to Kitahara's words, looking thoughtful. After Kitahara said this, it seemed that the case had taken a turn for the better. Judge Takanashi had both favorable and unfavorable factors for the case.

.

"Okay, have a good rest." Beiyuan picked up the remote control, turned on the TV in the guest room, and said with a smile, "You should go back to your father's guest room quickly. Otherwise, wait, he will come over and smash my door.

Already."

"I'll stay a little longer." Miyagawa replied softly, and she immediately sat in her seat and watched TV with Beihara.

The TV in the guest room flashed a picture, which happened to be a news program about the Shimokawa ancient book collation incident. The female host on the radio leaned forward slightly and said seriously: "This afternoon, Kyoto University is investigating the recent Shimokawa incident.

The associate professor made a statement by accusing Fujimura, dean of the Graduate School of Humanities, of plagiarism.”

"Kyoto University has officially made a statement?!" Miyagawa couldn't help but exclaimed, and immediately stared at the TV with all his attention.

The female host continued: "Kyoto University stated that the school has set up a relevant investigation team to investigate this suspected academic misconduct incident. However, given that the incident has now entered the judicial process, the results of their investigation will be announced after the court pronounces the verdict.

release."

"A spokesman for Kyoto University stated at a press conference this afternoon that the university will never tolerate any form of academic misconduct. But on the other hand, the university also stated that it will not tolerate any rumors and defamation of the reputation of scholars. Once the relevant information is verified,

People are using the cover of reporting 'academic misconduct', but in fact they are retaliating against the leaders of the college. The university will strictly pursue the legal responsibilities of people with bad motives and will never let them go."

The voice of the female host on the TV slowly floated in the guest room.

The university's response showed a tough stance.
