More on my saga with the Central London County Court. at last 2 months after the case was transferred from the High Court, we now have a directions hearing on 28 April-nearly 6 months away. Next unpleasant task-tell the client.  Shocking and disgraceful.

More nonsense from the front line !

More nonsense from the front line ! I have clients who are involved in highly contentious proceedings in the Derby County Court, which are themselves part of a much bigger picture. The Claimant's solicitors forgot to pay the court fee and the trial due this coming Friday vacated. We had a witness coming from abroad and were 80% sure of winning. The solicitors, who are a large national firm, have applied for relief from sanctions and the application is to be heard in January. We would have preferred the trial to go ahead. By their negligence the solicitors have gained a huge tactical advantage-I actually wonder whether it was negligence or deliberate ? In any event, our ludicrous court procedure has played straight into their hands.

high court demands

The High Court has demanded that further cuts be made to costs of over £1.6m claimed by Eversheds, overruling a costs judge. Mrs Justice Slade said the amount claimed by Eversheds from litigation client Mark Harrison was 4.8 times higher than the firm’s first estimate and about 2.9 times more than a second. 4.8 times higher??!! As Taffy Dare from Captain Caveman And The Teen Angels would exclaim, "Zowie Cavey!"
