"Is this legal?"
Frankly speaking, two trials without any defense attorney... the likelihood of a wrongful conviction in such circumstances is extremely high!
Therefore, this situation is highly likely to be illegal.
But...
"Theoretically, the court doesn't have a mandatory requirement for lawyers to be present on site."
Wang Yao pondered, feeling that all his life's study of law had gone to waste, unable to provide a definite answer to such a problem.
"The first trial was like this, and so was the second."
"Moreover, continuous absence... is not prohibited either."
There are indeed some cases where defendants voluntarily give up legal representation and choose to defend themselves twice.
But there's really no such unexpected form!
However, that being said.
Regardless, this....
"Legal!"
Wang Yao hesitantly uttered these two words.
