You need more help than any lawyer can give you.0 -
You've gone from someone making a fuss over nothing, to someone who is clearly mentally ill
you should be spending your money on medical help, not legal advice0 -

It will take longer than that to get to any court case.
letter before action - 7 days, then the court will have to process it, the turnaround used to be set at a target of 10 working days but it depends which court, then it may go straight to a preliminary hearing or have the time to file defence....
The target used to be forty WORKING days between being told to list something for hearing and the hearing itself but I never heard of a court managing it. It may have improved, however.
Also, this is not the easiest place to post on the forum, some of the normal exchanges here are robust to say the least. Perhaps you will be better if you ignore this from now on. Please take care of yourself.Ankh Morpork Sunshine Sanctuary for Sick Dragons - don't let my flame go out!0 -
I'm thinking Digg, Reddit, Deli.cio.us, Stumbleupon, Furl, Facebook, - we can get this thread worldwide overnight. It certainly has the "you couldn't make it up" potential...<--- Nothing to see here - move along --->0

Good luck with your court case
you're going to need all the luck in the world to win that!0 -

And what is she going to issue proceedings FOR?! She's got to think of that before she can even begin to write a letter of claim.
Now, this is either someone who does have real issues, or someone playing silly beggars.
Either way - perhaps I'm cruel - but I am finding it mildly entertaining.0 -

After reading your point of view my judgement is the same or more weighted on the side of the poor op who had the missfortune to be contacted by you. Please go now and speak to a friend carer or family member who will help you.0 -

I have seen all sorts. The court cannot stop someone issuing proceedings unless they have been declared a vexatious litigant and even then they can still apply to a judge to issue.
Brutally, even someone with clear mental health problems can issue, it is not up to the court staff to make the decision to issue or not. It will have to be thrown out by a judge if it is incorrect, and of course it will have cost a fortune by then.
To be fair, it is the OP that I feel sorry for, as it is horrible to be threatened with legal action before all ideas have been worked out, even if you are not vulnerable.Ankh Morpork Sunshine Sanctuary for Sick Dragons - don't let my flame go out!0 -
