i wright this ''Without Prejudice''

Due to the Legal Aid cut backs, i have been forced into representing myself as a Litigant in Person within the ever failing legal system called "The Court"
If you are a solicitor, barrister, journalist or legal blogger it would be great to have your views
:huh: :huh: :huh:

I am looking for advise on how to ''sue the courts'' for what has been frequently described from credited sources as being , one of the worst cases of property miss-justice they have ever seen,Morally stinking, with the law failing to protect me, along with a nice big dose of fraudulent questionable & belligerent behaviour.

I am nearing the conclusion of an extremely harrowing case,and there have been multiple documented errors on ; failings, non service of notifications, non service of hearing notices.,lost documents, wrong transcript recordings sent, clerical errors resulting in claims being made (not by me yet) against HMCTS and the public ''purse''
Also a blatant and obvious case of fraud committed under section1 of the Fraud Act of 2006 in the face of the court but conveniently overlooked and ignored.
I need advise on claiming for McKenzie fees unnecessary stress, loss of time, loss of finances,,,,being the victim of an act of fraud, but to name a few things,
I intend doing this by way of suing the courts and would appreciate any help / guidance. ...Thank you for taking the time to read this post and thanks in advance if you respond to it.

Slightly smaller case. I was advised by court officials that I could not do anything for 2 weeks. I thought the judgement was immediate and I told their office that. They referred it back to the judge and I was correct.
As for expenses paid due to their error etc...miserly. My time..virtually basic minimum wage. Inconvenience...tough.
Damages..about enough to pay for phonecalls and car parking.
Funny how they make the law and we have to work our way through a complex mess at enormous cost. (just increased I add) Then when it comes to reverse its just tough luck.
Best of luck

I know what you mean. Ive had cases thrown out for tiny mistakes and I mean tiny.I nearly had a case thrown out because my business partner named on the letter heading wasn''t in court with me although our remit says that the senior partner may act on behalf of both. Ive been tiraded at by a judge for 10 minutes being told that i ought to get professional advice ie get his highly overcharging cronies to do the work. My witness who was attending to prove a point put his head in his hands thinking ''''what the hell has he done wrong now''''. It was the second case of same subject.
I thumbed through documents as thick as they come and then said. ''''You have got the dates wrong'''' ''''Oh have I ? Oh yes''''. Case rubber stamped.
No ''''sorry'''' or ''''I made a mistake'''' or god forbid...''''you know more than me and are correct''''.
Remember most of those who pretend in life to know what they are doing go into the back room and grab a book to look it up before declaring they are experts.

If you feel a court ruling is incorrect the proper course of action would be to appeal the decision, but you would be well advised to consult a lawyer beforehand because the general court rule that the unsuccessful party to an action pays the successful party''s costs applies. That means even if you represent yourself you could end up with a hefty bill for the other side''s costs. FOr an appeal to be successful you need to show that new information which was relevant at the time of the hearing has since come to light, the judge made an error of fact or law or a perverse judgement no other judge could reasonably make in the same circumstances.

When the complaint is about the administrative service the court has provided you contact the court in person or by phone. You may want to make your complain more formal and in writing. If this is the case you need to complete form EX343A. If you are making a complaint about a specific member of court staff, and feel you have made a loss, it is possible claim compensation but will depend on the nature of the complaint.

Any complaint you make will be investigated and a decision made about any action to be taken. If you disagree with the outcome of your complaint, you can ask the Area Director to further consider your complaint. And if you are still not satisfied with the Area Director’s decision about your complaint, you can contact the Customer Service Unit. If after going through this procedure you still believe your complaint hasn’t been dealt with properly, you can contact the the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman. You can’t contact this service directly, but your MP can help you make contact with them.


To complain about a judge''s behaviour towards you contact the local Advisory Committee or the Office for Judicial Complaints. .

If the court had caused you loss it is possible to contact the court maladministration committee who can address your complaint. However, it is not public policy to award compensation even when the court is at fault therefore your chances are slim to none.

I mention public policy as there are so many cases that go through the courts and limited resources, if there was compensation awarded to everyone that suffered an injustice there would not be enough money to pay the compensation. It isn''t fair, it is a matter of economic viability.
