Summary: Lingyun Yongran assisted the client in successfully reclaiming the leased property involved in a lawsuit filed by the Shanghai Judicial Bureau against a law firm
A certain law firm ("Defendant") was once a law firm affiliated with the Shanghai Judicial Bureau (client of Lingyun Yongran), and used a certain property owned by the client as the owner for long-term office work as a public institution. In 2001, both parties signed the "Decoupling Agreement", which changed the previously free use of the house to paid use, and signed the "House Lease Agreement", stipulating that the customer would lease the house to the defendant. But after the expiration of the lease agreement, the defendant continued to occupy and use the house and refused to move out. The client has repeatedly requested the defendant to move out of the disputed property over the years, but to no avail. Therefore, the client has been involved in the lawsuit and has entrusted the legal team of Shanghai Lingyun Yongran Law Firm ("Lingyun Yongran") to represent them in this case.
The lawyer team of Ling Yun Yongran used rigorous logic and rigorous evidence in both the first and second trials to fully argue and clarify to the court that the defendant no longer belongs to a public institution and the "House Lease Contract" has expired, and the defendant no longer has any legal basis to occupy and use the house. They successfully assisted the client in winning both the first and second trials.
Despite winning the lawsuit, Lingyun Yongran still faced difficulties in execution, and ultimately assisted the client in recovering the property involved in the case. Although the defendant lost both the first and second trials, they still refused to move out of the house involved in the case. Faced with the defendant's strong resistance to execution and refusal to move out, the legal team of Ling Yunyongran did not back down before the difficulties. Through close cooperation with the executing judge, multiple on-site communications, meetings and discussions, we have learned to act with emotion and reason, and together with the executing judge, conveyed to the defendant that if they do not move out before the specified deadline, they will be fined heavily. Under the strong psychological pressure exerted by the legal team of Ling Yun Yongran, the defendant eventually moved out of the house involved in the case, and the client successfully reclaimed the house for office use.
