6: Arbitration Committee: You want us to go to the arbitration court?

Under the scorching sun, Zhou Yun walked out of the Fengxian County train station with his bag, wiping sweat from his brow.

Jinghai City in the summer was truly unbearable; it was too hot.

Seeing that it was only eleven o'clock, Zhou Yun decided to find a hotel to rest for a while before heading to the Labor Arbitration Committee in the afternoon to file an arbitration application.

Most likely, this arbitration would not be accepted, as the respondent was a Court, which seemed a bit outrageous.

But there was no other way; arbitration was a prerequisite procedure. Without going through the arbitration process, he couldn't go to the Court.

Soon, Zhou Yun found a hotel in Fengxian County and booked a room by the hour.

Normally, the expenses for a Lawyer's business trip should be borne by the client, but Zhou Yun didn't mind; this case had a system subsidy.

Moreover, the key was that he now had some money and wasn't used to staying in ordinary hotels.

After sleeping in the hotel room until three in the afternoon, Zhou Yun finally left with his bag and took a taxi directly to the Fengxian County Labor and Personnel Dispute Arbitration Committee.

At the first-floor window, Wei Yueyao, the Arbitration Committee's receptionist, was reviewing the documents in her hand.

With the ongoing legal popularization efforts, the workload at the Labor Arbitration Committee had increased significantly, though most disputes were cases of one-time final arbitration.

Labor disputes going to arbitration are divided into two types: if your amount is below twelve months of the local minimum wage standard, the award becomes legally effective upon issuance.

The employer cannot sue, but the employee can.

If it exceeds this standard, then the employer can also sue.

After finishing the application in her hand, Wei Yueyao started calling numbers again, and soon a very young-looking man came to the window.

As usual, Wei Yueyao took the documents and began to read, saying, "Oh, you're a Lawyer, from Jinghai City. The arbitration subject is…"

At this point, Wei Yueyao froze, then rubbed her eyes hard. Indeed, the arbitration subject was none other than the Fengxian County Court!

Slowly raising her head, Wei Yueyao said blankly, "Your arbitration subject is our county's Court?"

Zhou Yun smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's your county's Court. What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Wei Yueyao looked at the documents in her hand again and said, "This… we've never encountered a situation where the Court is the subject of arbitration."

"What is the legal basis for you to make the Court the subject of arbitration?"

Zhou Yun immediately replied, "However, according to Article 2 of our country's 'Court Organization Law,' the People's Court is the state's judicial organ and an institutional legal person."

"Article 2 of the 'Labor Contract Law' stipulates that state organs, public institutions, social organizations, and their employees who establish labor relations shall, in the conclusion, performance, modification, dissolution, or termination of labor contracts, comply with this Law."

"Therefore, based on these two provisions, the Court, as an institution, when establishing labor relations with others, should comply with the Labor Contract Law and can naturally become an arbitration subject."

Having handled countless cases in his previous life, Zhou Yun knew very well that he must "speak to people in a human way, and to ghosts in a ghostly way."

When facing clients, there's no need to explain too many regulations; just tell them roughly how to proceed, what the benefits are, and what the risks are.

But when dealing with professional staff, it's essential to respond professionally, clearly explaining the theoretical basis and logical methods.

Wei Yueyao was stunned again; she had never expected this young man to speak so fluently.

"But, but there's no precedent… You should go back and wait. If it's accepted, we'll notify you promptly."

She decided to pass it to her superior; she didn't know what to do with this matter.

Zhou Yun naturally had no objection. After receiving the receipt, he handed over another application.

Wei Yueyao was dumbfounded, "There's more?"

"Don't worry, this one is normal."

Hearing this, Wei Yueyao took the documents. Thankfully, this time it was a company, albeit a human resources company.

All the materials for the arbitration application were quite complete, but Wei Yueyao still didn't accept it on the spot, telling Zhou Yun to go back and wait for the notice.

With his bag, Zhou Yun left the Court and took a car directly back to Jinghai City. This case would take a while, so there was no need to wait there.

He still had several cases to handle here; most Lawyers work on many cases simultaneously.

It was another evening, and Zhou Yun, as usual, started a live stream, still displaying his potentially controversial title of "Super Lawyer."

The situation for the live stream was different today; within a few minutes, some viewers started to join.

This was already quite good for Zhou Yun.

"Hello everyone, I was too busy yesterday to stream, so let's continue today. It's still free consultation, feel free to ask anything you want."

Zhou Yun was prepared to face all sorts of bizarre questions.

Lawyers who stream always encounter some deeply thought-provoking questions.

"This viewer asked me why it's illegal for two people in love to not know each other's names."

"I need to clarify that it's not illegal for two people in love to not know each other's names."

"It's illegal when two people in love who don't know each other's names do loving things for money or other mediums."

"Why? Because love cannot be measured by money, do you understand?"

Ah, this… The netizen who had just asked the question in the live stream immediately burst into laughter.

"Haha, God, his love cannot be measured by money, haha…"

"So I'm just curious, why is a betrothal gift of 180,000 not illegal, but my betrothal gift of 880 is illegal?"

Zhou Yun laughed at these questions and said, "Of course, it's because your motives are impure. Was your betrothal gift for the purpose of marriage?"

"You clearly just coveted her body, you're despicable!"

The netizen was not satisfied with this answer and immediately sent a barrage of comments: "Those who get married also have impure motives, they also covet the other person's body!"

"We're all men, who doesn't understand? Lawyer Zhou, you're talking nonsense."

Zhou Yun smiled even more broadly upon hearing this: "Don't mind what others think. A gentleman judges by actions, not by intentions. Their betrothal gift is a gift for the purpose of marriage."

"What about yours? 'Three minutes ago I wanted to marry her, so I gave the betrothal gift. Three minutes later, I don't want to anymore?'"

The atmosphere in the live stream was lively, everyone was chatting happily, because they found that while Lawyer Zhou was talking and laughing, he revealed the essence of many things.

Useless knowledge inexplicably seeped into everyone's minds.

Finally, someone named "Love Follows The Clock" asked the first meaningful question.

"Lawyer Zhou, a friend of mine was caught going for a foot massage some time ago, and then the foot massage parlor was raided. Will the owner of the foot massage parlor be sentenced for organizing prostitution?"

"The owner of a shop didn't even set up a back door, what kind of shop is that!"

After reading it, Zhou Yun said, "I can tell, this netizen is very angry and agitated about his friend's experience, so let me explain."

"First, we need to clarify to what extent the services in the shop went. If it's just some simple issues, then they won't be sentenced for organizing prostitution."

"Because criminal law is stricter, I won't go into details, but everyone basically understands."

After Zhou Yun finished speaking, the netizen named "Love Follows The Clock" immediately started sending a flurry of comments.

"Damn, this doesn't even count? That's too much…"
