Chapter 823: Chapter 294: People With This Appearance Are Forbidden Entry
In Xie An Country’s expectant gaze.
Qin Mu continued: "If your marital relationship is truly broken, the first option is to draft your own agreement, discuss the distribution ratio with each other, and proceed with property division."
According to marital law.
The couple can decide their property themselves.
At the time of divorce.
Voluntarily sign a divorce agreement, specifying the property distribution ratio in it.
Once this agreement is signed, it becomes legally effective.
Cannot regret afterward.
This is also why many men choose to leave with nothing when divorcing.
One party can voluntarily relinquish ownership of the property.
Consider it as a gift to the other party.
"This..."
After hearing this, Xie An Country frowned.
Shook his head.
Asked again, "What about the second option?"
He had considered this option as well.
Wanting to privately meet Luo Siyu, reach an agreement, and part amicably.
However...
Luo Siyu is now obsessed with success, dreaming of getting rich and wealthy every day.
Using the money he gave, she continuously invests.
Obviously.
She is in need of money right now, and will definitely demand an equal division of the property.
And this option.
He cannot accept it.
"The second option is to sue for divorce, file a lawsuit with the court, and request property division."
Qin Mu looked at Xie An Country, instantly seeing through his thoughts.
These properties...
Can be said to be the result of Xie An Country’s hard work.
Unless crazy.
No one is willing to evenly split with someone they’ve been married to for just a few years.
"And at that time, the court will judge based on marital law, according to the specific situation of joint property, taking into account children’s and the woman’s rights."
Paused for a moment.
Qin Mu then explained the principles of the court’s judgment.
In marital law, the focus is on protecting the woman’s rights.
After all...
The woman is the weaker party in the marital relationship.
Economic capacity is also relatively weak.
The law, based on humanitarian principles, tends to be inclined in property division.
And about joint property...
Refers to the property obtained jointly by both parties during the marriage.
Includes salaries, bonuses, labor compensation; production, business, investment income; intellectual property revenue; inherited or gifted property, etc.
Listening to Xie An Country’s description, they have been married for several years.
During these years.
The property, salaries, dividends earned by Xie An Country, all have half for Luo Siyu.
All joint marital property should be evenly divided.
If there are children, the woman might need to be allocated more.
"Ahem, but there aren’t any children."
After hearing this.
Xie An Country turned red-faced, unable to resist mentioning.
He wanted to.
But as he grows older, many times he found himself struggling.
He just never had any offspring.
Then.
He looked at Qin Mu, couldn’t help but ask again, "What about the third option?"
Luo Siyu’s matter...
Made him realize he must divorce.
In the beginning, he married her for her youth and beauty.
But who would have thought...
Luo Siyu is not a model housewife, instead, she is a spendthrift.
If this continues...
The estate he worked hard for over half of his life will be gone sooner or later.
"The third option... is to find evidence of her fault."
Qin Mu thought for a moment, and spoke about the third, more complicated, but suitable option.
When the court handles divorce litigation.
The judgment will be based on caring for children, woman, and the rights of the faultless party.
A year ago, the Civil Code introduced a divorce damage compensation system.
This system...
Mainly aims to take care of the faultless party’s rights.
In fact.
Before the update of the Civil Code, there were too many cases of major marital faults leading to divorce.
For example, cheating.
But...
When the court issued judgments, the property is still divided equally.
No matter if the man cheats, or the woman cheats, it doesn’t affect property division.
Still results in equal property division.
After the update to the new Civil Code, the divorce damage compensation system was introduced.
This system...
Refers to acts of bigamy; cohabitation with others; domestic violence; abuse or abandonment of family members, or other major faults, etc.
The faultless party can request the at-fault party to compensate, and receive a higher proportion in property division.
"This system exists?"
Listening to Qin Mu describe this system, Xie An Country showed a hint of surprise.
All this time.
He was waiting for Luo Siyu to turn back.
After all, in property division, he’d eat a big loss.
According to his understanding of the law...
Even if one party cheats, the joint marital property still needs to be divided equally.
Unexpectedly, the Civil Code added such a humane law!
If one party is at fault...
They will receive less property, even face compensation!
During Luo Siyu’s marriage.
She continued using his assets for investments and refused to reform.
Now even wants to sell his house.
Clearly.
Can barely be considered as having a major fault leading to a marital discord.
"I understand."
After listening to Qin Mu’s concise explanation of the three options, Xie An Country nodded with a complex expression.
This was his first encounter with Qin Mu.
Before, he only understood Qin Mu through rumors or news in Jin City.
But in just these few minutes...
He felt Qin Mu’s mastery in legal research.
Not just criminal law.
Civil law and marital law, Qin Mu has thoroughly studied them.
