Sorry can't find the previous thread. I thought someone might like to attend. 18 witnesses!! Bet that's just a tactic to intimidate.

NEWSFLASH

45 days to go.

I received news this week that the venue for my hearing has changed. It is now at Watford Tribunal Centre, 2nd floor, Radius House, 51 Clarendon Road, Watford. It will be in an open court (i.e. members of the public are allowed to attend). The dates remain the same.

The case starts on 2nd October with reading and preliminary issues. Evidence-giving starts on 3rd October. At present, I still do not know the exact number of witnesses the OU is calling. In the preliminary case hearing, the OU's representative claimed that they would like to call 18. We are scheduled to exchange witness statements at the end of next week (25th August) and it is then that I will know if all of those 18 witnesses are, indeed, being called to give evidence.

I posted the crowdfunding link on the Petitions page. Just the link and a text saying the court is in October and it has been hidden.

Crowdfunding links are banned on MN, for everyone.

Hence "gardening", tending the plot" "adding a few carrots" etc.

Can costs be awarded in this hearing? If they drive up costs, can they be made to pay them if they lose?

Iirc, itt's vanishingly rare. It's why it was so huge when Allison Bailey got any contribution to her costs at all.

Thanks for the thread - I wondered whether one would have been started as I got her email update yesterday. Looking forward to following the trial. (Even more now that I know Ben will be putting them through their paces) Have planted a few bulbs - hope she hits her target.

I mean, my GF drags me to gardening centres, but I always end up in the cafe with cake for my efforts.

Planted a few veggies.

Bumping. An opportunity to help a great cause, gardening opportunities still available. Also, looking forward to the accompanying MN thread, and . All good wishes to Jo Phoenix.
