Since this year, Zhuanghe Wulu Court has actively participated in grassroots social governance, promoted judges to enter rural (community) activities, sent law to the countryside and villages to help the elderly protect their money bags, and were recognized by the elderly in various villages and towns. One day at the end of July, Mr. Liang was waiting at the door of Wulu Court and sued his four children in court with a complaint, but the reason was that the four children divided their money bags.
Uncle Liang, who lives in Sijia Village, Daying Town, is 91 years old this year. Recently, he found that his 68,000 yuan deposit was "disappeared". How come the money is gone? After some inquiry, Mr. Liang found out that his money had been quietly divided by four children.
It turned out that after the four children of the elderly learned that the elderly had a "huge deposit", they gathered together to conspire to secretly divide the deposit into the deposit and signed a "dividing up" agreement. After the old man found out, he asked his children to return the deposit many times, but the children refused to return it. Helplessly, the old man had to come to court for help.
Judge Yu Zhengwen learned about the case as soon as possible and visited the village committee in the area involved. Some children were extremely excited.Judge Yu patiently explained the law and made a sense, analyzed it from multiple angles such as legal principles, reason, and morality, and seriously pointed out that their behavior seriously infringed on the legitimate rights and interests of the elderly. He also communicated with four children many times, and 2 of them immediately expressed their refund of the money.
The other two children are still very puzzled by their father's complaint. For this reason, Wu Lu Court held a trial of the unjust enrichment dispute between Mr. Liang and his two children. The two children were still excited during the trial. In order to better protect the legitimate rights and interests of the elderly, so that the elderly and their children can enjoy their old age, and to make the elderly and their children harmonious as before, Judge Yu never tires about negotiating with both parties. The two children were finally moved by Judge Yu's sincere attitude and returned all the money in court. The two-hour mediation work has achieved results, and the elderly and their children have become as harmonious as before, and Judge Yu is also relieved.
Yu Zhengwen said that citizens enjoy the right to possess, use, gain and dispose of their personal property in accordance with the law. Due to physical condition and mobility, the elderly often find it difficult to effectively manage and dispose of their own property. In this case, children are not allowed to infringe on their parents' property rights and interests by stealing, defrauding, forcibly claiming. When hearing such cases of infringement of the rights and interests of the elderly, Zhuanghe Court fully verified the true wishes of the elderly, insisted on protecting the legitimate rights and interests of the elderly, and made judgments on the principle of protecting the legitimate property rights and interests of the elderly, effectively settled disputes.
