Chapter 982: A Successful Lawsuit
He Xiyan looked to the side of the defendant. Only at this time did she find that there were only a few people sitting there. Only Ye Hao, Xia Jingshu and two servants of the Ye family were present, while Mo Yixuan was the only one there of the Mo family. None of the Mo’s relatives came.
He Xiyan bit her lip, feeling very surprised. This situation was completely out of her expectations.
She thought that she had to face a lot of people.
She then looked at her two ex husbands, Ye Hao and Mo Yixuan, finding that they were all with their heads down. No one knew what they were thinking.
Soon, it was nine o’clock.
After a while, the judges and jurors came in through the side door. They were all dressed in uniforms, looking very serious.
After seated, they began to look through the doc.u.ments.
With the sound of the gavel, the case for custody began.
First, the lawyers of both sides made respective statements. Lawyer He was very excellent. She didn’t refer to the materials all the way. During her clear statement, some relevant evidence and supportive laws were presented one by one. She was well prepared.
After the statement, she nodded to He Xiyan, who smiled and said thank you to her silently.
Then it was the defendant’s turn. Since Ye Hao didn’t ask for a lawyer’s help, he simply handed in a piece of doc.u.ment to be read out by the staff. Mo Yixuan’s lawyer simply made the most basic statement as well, who finished within two minutes.
He Xiyan was very surprised. She had thought they were two tough lawsuits. Now, however, it seemed that her two ex husbands didn’t care about the outcome of the lawsuit, especially Ye Hao, who didn’t even turn to a lawyer.
Everything went on well. In the next stage of the court debate, Mo Yixuan and Ye Hao did not attend the debate. In this crucial round, they both chose to give up.
In less than 20 minutes, the trial entered the final sentencing stage.
This time, the judge and the jurors only discussed for five minutes, and then they got the result.
With the sound of the gavel, the presiding judge opened the written judgment and began to read out: He Xiyan sued her ex husband Mo Yixuan and Ye Hao because of the custody of the child born during marriage. After the case was accepted, our court delivered the notice of response to the lawsuit to the defendant according to law, and the defendant defended accordingly. With the deliberations of the collegiate bench, the facts of this case were clear after investigation and debate.
In accordance with article 36 and article 37 of the “Marriage Law of the People’s Republic of China”, and “Specific Opinions On Handling of Custody by the People’s Court in the Trial of Divorce Cases”, the court hereby made the following judgment:
Mo Ling, son of He Xiyan and Mo Yixuan, should be raised by his mother, He Xiyan. Mo Yixuan needed to give He Xiyan a monthly support fee of no less than 20000 yuan each month. The family name of the child was with his father’s, Mo, and the family name should not be changed for any reason. In addition, Mo Yixuan could request to visit the child at any time, and He Xiayn should not refuse it.
Ye Zixi, daughter of He Xiyan and Ye Hao, should be raised by his mother, He Xiyan. Ye Hao needed to He Xiyan monthly support fee of no less than 20000 yuan each month. The family name of the child was with his father’s, Ye, and the family name should not be changed for any reason. In addition, Ye Hao could request to visit the child at any time, and He Xiyan should not refuse it.
Until the presiding judge finished reading the two judgments, the court remained very quiet. No one raised any disagreement, whether the defendants or the plaintiff. Mo Yixuan and Ye Hao did not mean to appeal in court, simply accepting the result.
