    After giving birth to the baby dolphin, Marissa was somewhat tired. This was with the help of Poseidon's energy, otherwise she would be too exhausted to move.

    Qin Shiou asked if this tour route should be closed. After all, the baby dolphins were just born and the mother dolphins were tired, so they were easily frightened.

    Winnie asked Auerbach, and the old man said it didn't matter. Tourists can watch it. The dolphins will protect the mother and child. This is also a common sight.

    Sure enough, when a tourist approached the dolphin group with a small boat, all the dolphins swam hard to Marisa's mother and child, and formed a circle, with their heads outwards and tails facing in, firmly protecting the mother and child in the middle. As long as there was a boat approaching, they would  The dolphins would bang their heads against the bow of the boat.

    The rest of the matter has nothing to do with Qin Shiou and others. After landing, he asked Auerbach strangely: "Dad, do you know so much about the habits of dolphins? I don't know yet."

    Auerbach smiled and said: "There are many things you don't know. Obviously you haven't noticed. There are many photos of me and dolphins on the photo wall in my room."

    Qin Shiou has never paid attention to this. He basically doesn't go to the old man's room, and the old man doesn't go to his room. The relationship between the two parties is very strange. They are like a father and son, but also like a boss and an assistant. The two parties help each other, but respect each other's privacy.

    After landing on the shore, Auerbach said directly without him having to say anything: "As for the sunken Black Ax ship, you can rest assured and salvage it. The Spaniards will not even think of taking a penny from your hands!"

    Before Qin Shiou could say anything, Billy became excited, stretched out his thumb and shouted: "Dad is domineering! Our original lawyers were not so heroic, Snow, I get angry when I think of this! Those stupid donkeys, and the Spanish  It¡¯s really despicable to want to kneel down and speak during a confrontation in court!¡±

    Auerbach laughed and patted him on the shoulder: "This time is different. In fact, I don't blame your legal team for anything. You really didn't take advantage at the beginning."

    Qin Shiou asked worriedly: "Although what we salvaged this time is a pirate ship, according to current international law, the goods looted by pirates still belong to the country of origin."

    The three of them got into the car as they talked. The tiger and the leopard started running again with their tails swung in front, their tongues sticking out. They were obviously too hot, but they just liked running, and they were a pair of cute children who loved sports.

    On the ATV, Auerbach explained the differences between the two situations to Qin Shiou and Billy.

    First of all, in terms of the subject of the lawsuit, Spain¡¯s claim is very clear: the Mercedes was a warship sunk by their country by the British Navy in 1804, and Spain has never given up its sovereign rights to the sunken ship.

    According to the bilateral treaty between the United States and Spain, Spanish warships should enjoy the same protection as U.S. warships. However, according to the U.S. Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, U.S. courts do not have jurisdiction over in rem proceedings against the warship. Therefore, the sunken ship salvaged by Odyssey Company  The items should be returned to the Spanish Government.

    The treasures from the Black Ax shipwreck were indeed looted from Spanish territories. However, these treasures cannot be proven to be Spanish. They may also be the wealth of people from other countries in Spain, so the Spanish government¡¯s lawsuit this time is relatively vague.  , claiming "conditional title" to the gold, silver and porcelain produced from the Governor's Palace.

    The most important thing is that this time the Spanish lawsuit was filed in Canada instead of the United States. In this way, two different sovereign countries handle similar lawsuits differently.

    There is a so-called "long-arm jurisdiction" principle in American civil litigation, which means that even if the defendant does not live in a certain state, as long as he has some minimum connection with the state, and the origin of the claim is related to this connection  , then, as far as this claim is concerned, the state has personal jurisdiction over the defendant, and can then issue a summons to the defendant outside the state.

    In the Mercedes shipwreck incident, although the defendant's sunken ship and its accessories and cargo were salvaged from the international seabed area, that is, from the high seas, because the salvage subject was an American company headquartered in Florida,  Therefore, the US court held that this case constituted the minimum connection required to exercise long-arm jurisdiction.

    The good thing about this time is that Xiaoyu Deep Sea Shipwreck Salvage Company is located in Canada. The Spanish had to move the court to Canada. Canada¡¯s legal system is the same as that of the United Kingdom. Unlike the United States, although Spain will file a lawsuit, Canada¡¯s  The court will not force the seizure of sunken ships.

    Hearing this, Billy shook his head and said: "But the federal court has issued a lawsuit order requesting the seizure of the sunken ship."

    Auerbach laughed: "Of course, as long as the court acceptsIf the case is closed, the relevant property must be seized. This is a legal requirement.  However, haven't you seen that the Supreme Court did not force the seizure, but left it to your own jurisdiction, which already illustrates some problems.  "

    Qin Shiou breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Does this mean these treasures will not be taken away by the Spaniards?"

    Auerbach said: "Definitely not, but this batch of jewelry may not be sold in a short time, and this lawsuit may be fought."

    Thinking of the five-year lawsuit between the Spanish government and Orside, Qin Shiou broke into a cold sweat: "You won't fight for five years, right?"

    Auerbach shrugged and said: "It's hard to say. Looking at the Spaniard's determination, of course I don't think this lawsuit will last so long, because the Spaniard was confident of winning the Mercedes at the time, so he was willing to spend huge sums of money.  Let¡¯s fight this lawsuit. Black Ax is sinking. They must know that they can¡¯t win the lawsuit, and there¡¯s no point in spending it like this.¡±

    Billy breathed a sigh of relief and said: "As long as the ownership of the sunken ship can be determined, it will be fine. We are not in a hurry to use the money anyway, so why not file a lawsuit with the Spanish? It can also increase the visibility of the sunken ship. We cannot let go of the opportunity for free speculation.  .¡±

    Qin Shiou didn't want to wait, but he had no better idea, so he could only go on like this.

    After returning to the fishing ground, both Little Blake and Brandon were waiting a little impatiently. The former was on the phone with the lawyer of their auction house, and it didn't look like it was going well. Little Blake had a bitter look on his face after hanging up the phone.

    Qin Shiou told Little Black what Auerbach meant and asked him to hand over the auction lawyer team to the old man, who would come forward to resolve the matter.

    Little Black breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this and said: "This is the best. Our chief lawyer said that this matter is 60 to 40 and we have a 60% chance of winning. But of course he is not as good as Father Ao. Father Ao comes forward in person.  , that Black Ax pirate ship must belong to us."

    As a country with a common law system, it is normal to litigate something in Canada. In this way, for the same case, hiring an ordinary lawyer will naturally lead to different results than hiring an excellent lawyer.

    When you reach Auerbach's level, it's even more powerful. He can turn a deer into a horse in court!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
