时间：2013-02-21
主任金立志律师代理被告上海某国企应诉某自然人劳动合同纠纷，标的达亿元人民币一案，该案经一审、二审、再审，法院最终判决驳回原告所有诉讼请求，本所律师成功维护了国资利益。
案情简述
2002年至2004年每年A均与B公司签署部门承包协议，A依据该协议，诉称其于2004年3月为B公司引入并操作完成了对某项目的投资，截止2010年10月该项目累计为B公司创利超过20亿元，B公司应按照2004年部门承包协议对承包提成比例具体约定支付提成奖金8000万元，迟延支付上述奖金的补偿金2000万元。本所律师代理B公司辩称A仅向B公司推荐了该项目，并做过部分前期联络工作，但最终完成投资的并非B公司，而是实际入股的境外某上市N公司，该项目投资收益人也为N公司。
争议焦点
1. 本案是承包经营合同纠纷还是劳动合同纠纷，承包合同的法律效力及承包内容是否涉及该项目；
2. 原告的诉请是否超过申诉时效；
3. 原告可否根据双方所签订的2004年部门承包协议的约定获得“约定”提成奖金。
4. N公司与被告有否合同及法律关系；
律师代理工作
1. 约谈相关人员，并通过审阅历年与原告相关的所有材料，厘清案件来龙去脉，提出应诉策略；
2. 收集合同、付款凭证、账册等证据，出具书面回复意见，向法院主张承包协议一年一结算，该项目实际收益人与被告虽有长期业务往来，但其与被告的法律关系没有关联性，原告的诉请无法律依据；
3. 通过充分的法理分析结合相关法律、法规、司法解释，反驳原告提出的诉求，有效维护被告的合法国有资产权益。
一审、二审、再审法院均支持了被告的答辩意见。
Kingtham’s chairman attorney Jin Lizhi represented a Shanghai state-owned company in an employment contract dispute, involving over one hundred million yuan RMB. The court dismissed all claims of the plaintiff, after first instance, second instance and retrial. Kingtham has successfully safeguarded state-owned assets.
Brief
Individual A signed Contractor’s Agreement with company B every year from 2002 to 2004. Pursuant to this Agreement, A claimed that he had introduced and eventually succeeded in performing an investment project, which had brought profit of over two billion Yuan to B for the year ended Oct. 2010. B therefore shall pay A 80 million Yuan bonus and late-payment compensation 20 million Yuan, in accordance with the terms and conditions in the Agreement. Kingtham’s attorneys argued that A merely introduced the project to B and did some correspondence work, however it was an overseas listed company N that invested in the project and received all the payoffs.
Issues
1. Whether this case belonged to contractor agreement dispute or employment contract dispute. Would the validity and content of the contractor agreement affect this project?
2. Has the time limitation of the claims expired?
3. Was the plaintiff entitled to the bonuses prescribed in the 2004 version of contractor agreement?
4. Was N and the defendant contractually or legally related?
Work done by attorney
1. Straightened out the whole story and proposed arguing strategy by meeting with relevant people and reviewing relevant materials throughout the years;
2. Collected contracts, accounting documents, account books, accounting statements and other accounting information, issued written reply to argue that contractual agreement was settled annually and though the defendant had frequent business transactions with N, they were not legally connected, therefore the claims lacked legal support;
3. Rebutted plaintiff’s claims, and safeguarded defendant’s legitimate rights and interests by thorough analyses based on pertinent laws and regulations.
Courts supported defendant’s legal opinions during first instance, second instance and retrial.
