All the best to Kate Scottow in court tomorrow

[BitterAndOnlySlightlyTwisted]

@BustedWench: we haven’t forgotten. I have a prior commitment tomorrow but fully intend to be there to support you on Friday,

Total insanity. Best of luck Kate.

Am thinking of you too, hope for a sensible outcome

@BustedWench - is the case today or tomorrow? And what time does it start? I couldn't find the court listings for St Albans magistrates court anywhere.

And good luck!

Hope it goes well Kate.

Of all the women I know, you, Kate, are the least likely to back to back down to bullies. Just revisit that green hair, fuck you attitude we all had in the teenaged goth years.

Wish I could be there for you, but as you know, I live a long, long way from St A these days.

Be marvellous.

Good luck Kate.

Is Joani Walsh live tweeting? I can't find her on twitter at the moment.

This might explain the absence of Joani Walsh:

Thinking of you Kate. Hoping for a sensible outcome.

The trial is at 10am today and tomorrow for the poster asking and apparently it's phones off so there maybe no live tweeting which is disappointing

I hope the outcome is good for Kate (can't see how it won't be). Very interested in the bad character stuff about Hayden...

Still adjourned???

Waiting impatiently....

Who is suing Kate, and on what grounds?

Good luck Kate thoughts with you

It will be interesting to see what details come out.

Who is suing Kate, and on what grounds?

Who: A self professed solicitor, sorry, lawyer with a number of previous identities, some of which are male, some female.

Grounds: Referring to said person as him rather than the self preferred she

She's not being sued, it's at a magistrates court.

Agreed

This is a criminal trial

Indeed, and therefore it's important to make it clear that an independent decision has been taken to proceed, it is not an individual trans person taking legal matters into their own hands.

Love you @BustedWench

She's not being sued, it's at a magistrates court.

^^ It's a CPS prosecution reflecting Communications Act S 127:

The Crown’s case against Mrs Scottow, a PhD student, refers to ‘making persistent use of a public electronic communications network’ for the purpose of ‘causing annoyance, inconvenience or needless anxiety’ to another under an obscure subsection of the Communication Act’s controversial section 127. It carries a potential six-month prison sentence.

Crown advocate Mr Siong said: ‘It is an unusual case involving allegedly criminal Twitter messages.’
Ms Wilson told the court: ‘There are two main issues. The first rests on whether Twitter is a public electronic communications network,’ which she said ‘had not been litigated in the high court’.

Good luck Kate.

Good luck Kate, let's hope for some sanity today.

Cheering you on in solidarity, Kate. It should never have come to this.
