    Whilst most of the struck out particulars we see are still terrible non-sensical thing, judges are still striking out ones that appear less unreasonable.

    At the end of the day if your particulars are for a contractual claim but you are refusing to submit the contract and/or your particulars really only amount to a one liner that sounds like a computer error code, you're going to pee off a certain number of judges.

    Personally I don't understand why more aren't struck out. 
  • I think JB putting statements of case in a witness statement went down like a lead balloon.

    Anyway, whatever happens, son is up for another day in court. In an appeal hearing I will have to be McKenzie friend unless the judge wants to save the time that will burn and let me do the lay rep bit again. I believe they have the discretion to do that.

    I will doubtless have some reading to do before the day, if it comes.

    Just to close this off. VCS didn't go to appeal. We never heard another thing.
    Great! As expected.

    Hope you and your son will both complete the Public consultation in August?

    We have a dedicated thread discussing it.
