最近学习法律条文里“书面质询”这一项, 看到一些提问觉得很搞笑.
Interrogatories, 中文翻成书面质询, 简单地说,就是打官司的过程中,原告方和被告方都可以以书面的形式向对方提问问题, 要求对方回答, 当然答案来了你怎么用, 那就看你的智商了。
在学习的过程中看了一些书面质询的samples, 挺吃惊的。 一般打官司,询问对方的经济状况, 财产, 银行账户之类的都不奇怪, 但是堂堂21世纪的美国, 打离婚官司可能要被对方问到以下这类问题, 仔细看看, 这可都是标准提问哈, 法律允许的:
- State the date on which you and your spouse last had sexual relations with each other. (Standard Domestic Relations Interrogatory No. 16.)
你俩哪天哪月最后一次上的床?
- If you have had sexual relations with a person other than your spouse during your marriage, identify the person(s) with whom you have had sexual relations, state the date of each act of sexual relations, and state the location where each act took place. If you refuse to answer this interrogatory as framed because the answer would tend to incriminate you, so state and answer for the period ending one year prior to the date of your answers. (Standard Domestic Relations Interrogatory No. 17.)
如果你婚姻期间跟别人干过, 都跟谁干过? 每次都是什么时间干的, 在哪里干的, 请一一说清楚。
- If you have had sexual relations with a person other than your spouse during the marriage and you contend that your spouse has forgiven or condoned your actions, state the facts upon which your contention is based. (Standard Domestic Relations Interrogatory No. 18.)
如果你说你出过轨你配偶原谅你了,凭什么这么说? 拿出事实依据来。
- Please give the name, address and telephone number of any detective hired by you or your attorney to obtain information regarding the activities of the [Plaintiff/Defendant].
如果你雇用过侦探调查你配偶, 请出示侦探的姓名, 地址和电话。
- List the name, address and telephone number of any and all persons with whom you claim the [Plaintiff/Defendant] committed adultery, and detail each and every instance.
如果你说你配偶有过出轨, 请列出所有出轨对像人的名单, 详细描写每次他们都是怎么干的。
- If you, since the date of your marriage, committed adultery and/or had sexual relations/contact with any person other than your spouse, please give the name, address and telephone number of each and every individual with whom you committed adultery and/or each and every individual with whom you had sexual relations/contact; the dates and places of each act; and the name, address and telephone number of each and every individual with knowledge of each act.
如果你婚后有过出轨, 都跟谁干过? 请出示每一个出轨对象的姓名,地址和电话号码, 何时何地在哪里干的, 怎么干的, 都有谁知道? 知请人的姓名地址电话意义交代清楚。
- If you contend that your spouse was totally or partially responsible for the estrangement of you and your spouse, state the facts upon which you base your contention and identify those persons who have personal knowledge of these facts.
如果你说你们婚姻破裂是你配偶的责任, 请一一列举事实和提供证人名单。
哈哈哈哈哈!有人被问到过这类问题吗? 怎么回答呢? 别忘了, 从法律上讲, 回答书面质询要对法庭起誓讲实话的。都跟谁干过? 什么时候什么地点干的? 怎么干的? 要回答多仔细才算诚实呢?
即使拿到答案了, 对方怎么利用这些事实呢?
我还以为美国早已经是无错离婚了, 通奸不是罪呢。 谁给说说? :D
