I Became a Law School Genius – 85



I Became a Genius Law School Student Episode 85

When I tore open the envelope and opened the contents documents in an unfamiliar format came out.

‘This…’

“Is this a complaint?”

Baek Seo-yul also tilted his head next to him.

[plaint]

Petitioner:

Respondent:

– Purpose of complaint –

– Facts of the complaint –

The requirements for this assignment were simple.

After looking at the given facts and evidentiary documents write a complaint on behalf of the complainant from the complainant’s point of view.

On the contrary it was to write a lawyer’s opinion containing a counterargument to the expected facts of the complaint.

Just because it’s simple doesn’t mean it’s easy.

This is because it is not enough to have a good knowledge of legal principles and these practical documents require the application ability to construct logic that can persuade the reader even when faced with facts that do not necessarily fit the precedent.

‘This is why police officers are good at it.’

Most people will never touch a complaint in their lives but police officers who have worked in front-line police stations are different.

That’s because the police station is where complaints are usually filed.

They would have read and analyzed the complaints that poured in every day judged whether or not they were worth filing and explained them to the parties involved.

So there was no way I couldn’t do it. Would it be difficult to handle documents like eating a meal?

The story may be a little different for graduates without practical experience like Shin Seo-jun but at least in the original work Shin Seo-jun easily accomplished this task.

While in school he was exposed to some of these practical documents through special lectures and also heard various know-how from seniors who had graduated before him.

‘Let’s take a look first.’

[Kim Yong-ik (47 banker) was asked by his close younger brother Choi Hoon (41 unemployed) whom he had known well to approve a loan from a bank in 201X.0X.0X. However Choi Hoon had already failed to repay the loan several times and his loan eligibility was suspended…(omitted)…]

After a cursory review of the facts it was clear what was at issue.

‘Is this a crime of breach of duty?’

Article 355 of the Criminal Act (Embezzlement and Breach of Trust) ② If a person who handles another person’s affairs acquires property interests by an act that violates his/her duties or causes damage to the principal by causing a third party to acquire such benefits the same shall apply to the punishment of the preceding paragraph.

Article 356 of the Criminal Act (embezzlement and breach of trust in office) A person who violates his/her official duties and commits the crime of Article 355 shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than 10 years or by a fine not exceeding 30 million won.

Among the numerous crimes in criminal law ‘breach of trust’ which appears relatively frequently on exams was the key issue.

There is no one in this world who can do everything alone.

Of course some things should be left to others.

The president hires employees to take charge of specific duties in the company and people with too many assets find a fund manager at an asset management company and entrust them with managing their money.

However if you trust and leave it to them like this there will be people who will abuse it and stab you in the back.

Leaking the company’s trade secrets to a competitor or investing a customer’s assets in a close friend’s company even though they know they will lose money.

‘The rule punishing that is breach of trust.’

In particular if a person commits breach of duty in relation to work that must be done in his/her job he/she will be labeled as a breach of duty and subject to severe punishment.

Since it is an issue that comes up frequently it is an important crime that requires you to memorize not only basic legal principles but also dozens of applicable precedents in order to take the bar exam.

Of course it is rare to find a student who has just completed the first semester of the first year of study and has even completed his studies but isn’t this Jin & Ahn?

Skilled people who could intern here would have been able to easily find out and write off charges of breach of duty.

In fact other interns except us also started writing the complaint with relative confidence and for a while the sound of tapping the laptop keyboard rang cheerfully.

‘I guess I’ll get started soon.’

Around that time quite some time had passed.

Suddenly the sound of the interns typing stopped.

“What’s next… is it fraud?”

“You gave the loan money as a bribe to the police? “So you’re a briber?”

“Since you were caught and released after paying money aren’t you guilty of escape or aiding the escape?”

Instead voices putting their heads together and exchanging opinions filled the void.

The reason was simple.

“no. “I thought it would be easy just by looking at the first part but why is the back part like this?”

A task given by Go Cheol-su.

The issue of breach of trust which was the issue in the first part was easy for anyone to understand because it was a relatively typical case but it was complicated to the point of ending.

This person Choi Hoon was gambling with borrowed money and was caught by the police. He gave the remaining funds as a bribe to the police and ran away but he then withdrew the money using a stolen credit card and gambled again. He really committed all kinds of crimes.

Pick it up and say ‘Do you know this?’ It was different from the friendly case-type questions that were asked.

One act may seem like this sin or that sin.

Even several of these actions are intertwined so it takes a considerable amount of time to examine them one by one.

“Ah… I’m confused.”

“My head is going to explode.”

The interns made groaning noises while covering their throbbing temples.

They may have completed their study of the basic principles but they were still only first year students.

At most I was used to dealing with only one or two issues at a time which I could count on my fingers.

However in the case or record type of the real bar exam much more complex and difficult situations are presented.

This assignment was even more advanced than that so it was no wonder that they were confused hesitated and wasted time.

The reason for setting such an excessive difficulty level was clear.

This is a task that cannot be solved in a timely manner unless someone has a long history of law or is a police officer well-versed in criminal law.

If so it would be a stepping stone to naturally give preferential treatment to former police officers without having to discriminate against them.

‘Because Go Cheol-soo wanted to create a police line within Jin & An.’

He probably wanted to select talented juniors like Shin Seo-jun and make them his own.

“Why are you looking across the river like that?”

Baek Seo-yul who was suffering next to me glanced at me.

This woman who said she would observe my every move was actually circling around me all day from morning until now.

When I frowned Baek Seo-yul smiled and said “Aha.”

“I guess this task is too difficult for you right? “When you lose concentration and see your hands stop.”

He had a strangely relieved expression on his face so I said something.

“Did I do everything?”

“My skills were so monstrous that I wondered if we were in the same first year but now I feel a bit of a sameness… Huh?”

“I said everything was already done. “I have nothing to do and will sleep in from now on so please wake me up at six o’clock.”

“Wait a minute. “Have you done all this already?”

Baek Seo-yul stammered as if he couldn’t believe it but what could he do? I really did everything.

I closed the laptop and flopped down on the desk as if to show off.

Since I live such a busy life time to rest like this was very precious to me.

I couldn’t waste my time hanging out with this annoying person.

Yes yes work hard. I’m going to sleep.

“Uh huh…?”

* * *

In the end only three people completed and submitted the assignment within the time limit that day.

Shin Seo-jun and Baek Seo-yul.

I heard from Shin Seo-jun that he finished work right after I sent the completed complaint and that Baek Seo-yul worked tirelessly to finish and submit it just before six o’clock.

‘Amazing?’

From the beginning Shin Seo-jun and I were in different positions from the starting line.

It was an incredibly difficult task for an ordinary first-year law school student to complete in time but when he somehow succeeded Baek Seo-yul was not an easy task.

After all being the top student at a school was not something that was won through gambling.

– Everyone worked hard. Well there’s probably no one who has completed it except for one person… Huh?

After checking the list of submitters Go Cheol-soo rubbed his eyes as if wondering what he had seen.

But nothing changed no matter how many times I watched it again.

After confirming that there were unexpected names listed he gave permission to the interns to leave work in a panicked voice and hurried out of the office.

Unfortunately this incident did not lead to Ko Cheol-soo changing his attitude.

On the contrary he probably evaluated me and Baek Seo-yul as people of interest so he started putting checks on me every time he saw me between internships.

“Yesterday something happened and he said something about what I ate. There was a place where interns gathered together and had a meal with other seniors? There Shin Seo-jun is straight and handsome so you can trust me but Meg says I’m a despicable conman.”

“Pfft.”

Hanseol who was leaving work with me burst out laughing.

“You can do it. “That’s right.”

“…What is that?”

“To put it nicely he is a decadent and bad man. To put it in a bad way it’s the image of a reckless scoundrel.”

It was something I couldn’t do anything about since I was possessed by the body of that damn bastard.

Even though I have been leading an upright lifestyle for several months now I cannot erase the impression that comes from my natural features.

“It’s much better than when I was addicted to alcohol.”

“Thank you.”

He gives bottles and medicines and does everything on his own. I walked in silence for a while and then asked Hanseol.

“What about civil affairs? “Is it worth it?”

“huh. I’m learning so much. Today during the selection process a case related to a travel contract came up as an assignment and as you know schools don’t deal with this kind of thing very often. so….”

As we were chatting about various things we found ourselves in front of a convenience store.

“for a moment.”

I went inside alone and bought a vitamin drink and handed it to Hanseol.

“uh?”

“You look a little tired.”

“…is it obvious?”

‘No problem.’

I was chatting brightly pretending like nothing was wrong but my eyelids were fluttering which was typical of lack of sleep.

Because I worked harder than anyone else I was sensitive to signs of overwork.

“It’s good to work hard but don’t overdo it.”

“…Yes thank you.”

After walking a little further we arrived at the bus stop in front of the school.

To return home we had to take buses in opposite directions.

“Park Yu-seung.”

Before crossing the crosswalk Hanseol looked back.

“why?”

“What if… Uhm. “It’s nothing.”

The guy who was about to say something shook his head and hesitated then said a common greeting.

“See you tomorrow.”

“…are you coming?”

The signal changed to blue. Hanseol headed to the other side as if being swept away by the crowd.

I followed that direction with my eyes for a while and then got on the bus that came at the right time.
