Zhao Jianming returned to Taiwan to issue the divorce agreement, and lawyer Su Wenjun analyzed the legal effect and risks of confidentiality clauses
AI-generated summary
The divorce agreement between Chen Xingyu and her ex-husband Zhao Jianming included a confidentiality clause involving 100 million yuan. Recently, Chen Xingyu publicly discussed the content of her marriage, triggering discussions in the legal community about confidentiality obligations.
Former President Chen Shui-bian's beloved daughter Chen Xingyu is tearing apart her ex-husband Zhao Jianming, and the marriage scandal continues to spread. Zhao Jianming returned to Taiwan from Vietnam yesterday. When facing a large number of media, he did not explain much. Instead, he directly took out the divorce agreement and sent it to the reporters at the scene, emphasizing that he should pay attention to "Article 8" and the confidentiality agreement involving 100 million yuan. In this regard, lawyer Su Wenjun shared legal knowledge and reminded ordinary people that when signing a divorce agreement, the confidentiality clause must clearly state "all contents shall not be disclosed to third parties" in order to make the scope of the regulations clearer.
Lawyer Su Wenjun posted on Facebook that what Zhao Jianming is currently revealing is the content of the confidentiality clause itself, and does not directly disclose the core of the clause that is really intended to protect, which is the privacy and agreement details of the two parties during their marriage.
He believes that when the court hears contract disputes, it will interpret it in accordance with the true connotation and intention of the contract, and will not directly determine that the parties have breached their confidentiality obligations just because the text of the confidentiality clause has been made public. Therefore, Zhao Jianming took the initiative to hand over part of the divorce agreement to the media this time. Whether it involves a breach of contract cannot be judged just from the surface words.
Su Wenjun also mentioned that Chen Xingyu's recent public discussion of marriage is actually "pretty dangerous." He said bluntly: "An affair is hateful, but it should step on the red line of privacy." At the same time, he was also curious whether Chen Xingyu was so angry that she was desperate to speak out, or whether she had other considerations, and was even sure that Zhao Jianming did not dare to take other actions.
As Zhao Jianming specifically named "Article 8" of the divorce agreement, which involves an agreement of up to 100 million yuan, whether the two parties will take further legal action has also become the focus of attention from the outside world.
Su Wenjun also took this opportunity to share practical legal knowledge. He pointed out that when drafting a contract, it is best for ordinary people to make the terms as specific and clear as possible. Unless the actual situation cannot be detailed one by one, the use of overly abstract or general words should be reduced to reduce the possibility of different interpretations of the terms by both parties in the future.
As for how to write a confidentiality clause that is clear enough? Su Wenjun directly pointed out the key point and suggested: "Don't write that it must not be disclosed to the outside world, but write that all the contents must not be disclosed to third parties." By defining the scope of confidentiality in more precise words, we can avoid room for interpretation in the future.
