Sitting in the dock, Qin Shiou felt that these lawyers were talking nonsense when they had nothing to do. We are here to discuss the ownership of the sunken ship. Why are you here talking about who seized the sunken ship in the early stage?
But the two sides directly argued on this issue. The Spanish lawyer group asked the Canadian court to revoke the previously issued pre-litigation seizure order and revoke the qualification of the manager of Xiaoyu Deep Sea Shipwreck Salvage Company.
They believe that because the Spanish government has the most obvious historical, cultural and archaeological interests in the Black Ax pirate shipwreck and its accessories, the court should appoint the Spanish government as the administrator of the subject of this case. Not only that, the small fish salvage company must also All salvaged items, including gold and silver coins, were handed over to the Spanish government.
So the wrangling began. The Supreme Court repeatedly emphasized that the court was not qualified to rule on the ownership of the Black Ax pirate shipwreck and its accessories and cargo, nor did it have the jurisdiction to make a decision. According to legal provisions, the court can only order Xiaoyu Deep Sea Shipwreck Salvage Company to hand over the subject of the lawsuit to government management, rather than transfer ownership.
In fact, there is a reason why the Spanish legal delegation is wrangling like this. It is not easy to determine the ownership of sunken ships and treasures. Not all deep-sea sunken ships are warships. Many international disputes over the salvage of undersea cultural relics do not have the jurisdiction of the country and its property. Regarding immunity issues, the trial of substantive disputes is inevitable.
The place where Odyssey suffered a loss was that the Mercedes was a warship and belonged to the Spanish government from all angles, even if the government changed.
The Black Ax pirate ship has no national ownership. They were pirates and were wanted by all countries. Otherwise, there would be no need for them to go to the freezing Greenland Sea. Spain would not be able to use the method of suing Oside to deal with Qin Shiou. One line, so they delay getting to the topic.
??In the end, there was a lot of back and forth, and the first court session came to no result. The presiding judge was probably in a hurry to eat, and finally he banged the table with a gavel with a gloomy face. The confrontation ended without any problem.
Official Qin stood in the dock with a worried look on his face, "Holy shit, what's going on?" Is this the end of this court session? Who does the sunken ship belong to? I'm in a hurry to sell these treasures, okay?
After the court was over, the jurors left, and the people who came to watch the trial also left. The media reporters came together, surrounded Qin Shiou and Spain, and spit out a lot of questions like a barrage of questions.
Now, Qin Shiou has experience in dealing with this. He took out a large sunglasses from his pocket and hung it on his face like a magic trick, then waved his hands and said: "Sorry everyone, I am not accepting interviews now. If you have any questions, please ask my lawyer. I¡¯m going to excuse myself.¡±
Auerbach looked at his pretentious look and wanted to go up and slap him. What does it mean to ask your lawyer? What's there to ask?
In the eyes of Qin Shiou, there was no result in this trial, but in the eyes of skilled lawyers like Auerbach, it was different. After leaving the court, they breathed a sigh of relief. Auerbach even said directly: "Let Little Blake prepare Let¡¯s have an auction, the Spaniards can¡¯t win.¡±
Qin Shiou asked strangely: "How did you tell?"
A lawyer said with a smile: "The Spaniards did not directly attack the case itself this time, but questioned the court's judicial fairness and openness in law enforcement. This shows that they are very dissatisfied with the attitude given by the Canadian official. I bet that both sides of this matter Diplomats communicated privately, but the final result was not satisfactory to the Spaniards."
Qin Shiou asked strangely: "What do you mean? Isn't the verdict of the case determined by law? What does the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' private communication mean? Damn, is judicial fairness just a matter of words?"
The lawyers shrugged, and Auerbach said: "How can there be so much judicial justice? Especially this is an international dispute. The laws of the two countries are different from international law. How to judge? If you ask me at the beginning of this case, I will I told you that we can safely salvage the sunken treasure, because from a purely legal perspective, we are sure to win, and the only variable lies in the diplomacy between the two countries."
Qin Shiou understood that these trials are actually just a process, and the laws in Canada are also very dark.
In fact, we cannot blame the government for manipulating and creating judicial shady cases. Although Canada claims to the outside world that their courts strictly adhere to judicial independence, as part of the national organs, the courts cannot ignore the realization of the country¡¯s foreign policy goals, nor can they ignore Canada¡¯s diplomatic interests. , will be more or less affected by international relations or international politics.
Generally speaking, countries with close diplomatic relations with Canada are more likely to obtain favorable judgments in Canadian courts, while countries with more tense diplomatic relations with Canada encounter difficulties in the judgment.The possibility of trouble is greater.
Of course, apart from Canada, this is also the case in other countries. As for personal interests? The Constitution of every country stipulates that personal interests need to serve the interests of the country. After the verdict in the Mercedes sinking case was concluded, the vice president of Odyssey and Billy¡¯s brother once complained that ¡°the verdict was completely influenced by politics. Even above the law." This is how it is. How can the sentencing of international disputes be absolutely fair?
Auerbach speculated that the Canadian Ministry of Foreign Affairs must have wanted to use the Black Ax sunken ship as a bargaining chip to exchange for some project with the Spanish, but the Spaniards did not agree, so the two sides broke down.
For Canada, once the two billion U.S. dollars of sunken treasures are auctioned, the country can get 800 to 900 million U.S. dollars in profits through taxes. This amount of money is not a small amount. Last year, Canada's national GDP was less than 2 trillion. US dollars, this time the tax is one two thousandth of the annual GDP!
After understanding this, Qin Shiou shook his head repeatedly. Damn it, whoever tells him that foreign countries pay attention to judicial justice will definitely make him unable to live his own life. The world is as dark as crows.
Auerbach admitted this: "With regard to high-value bulk items such as shipwreck treasures, it is impossible for governments at all levels not to want a share of the pie. However, this does not mean that the government is a robber. Our government will only If there is a little bias in the sentencing process, if it is in some countries in Africa and South America, then the sunken ship that is salvaged belongs to the state, and that is called a bandit government!"
Qin Shiou said disdainfully: "Fifty steps to laugh at a hundred steps?"
Auerbach smiled and said: "You can think so, but this is the reality. If you want absolute fairness, then go to God for it. Only in heaven will God grant absolute equality to all living beings."
This is just a joke, and Qin Shiou doesn't care. Since the court session is over, he will go back and wait for the next court session. Just in time to hype it up a few more times, so that the price of the sunken treasure can be raised during the autumn auction. Anyway, the treasure will still belong to him in the end!
