Summoned to County Court

[easy-lift guy]

Ain't it a faff!? We did the job that is being contested two and a half years ago.

 

Someone is having a pissing contest against someone else. Just make sure if you do get called egg that you wipe that seat clean before you conduct any additional paperwork, just to be safe!.

This case as been adjourned.

 

I got a call this afternoon telling me not to attend court as the claimant is suffering from Hypertension.

 

Yep and they will probably blame that on the stress of the case, I can see where this is going.

Even when you get there it will probably be farcical, both parties and their witnesses directed in by separate doors, barristers conversing with clients and then each scurrying back out and "negotiating" in the corridor, followed by reporting back to client with the dominant one cracking jokes , like the good showman he is, to elicit guffaws from his side in order to intimidate the opposition. Often followed by a direction to judges chamber to settle out of court. After which the winning barrister treats his opposition to a lobster thermidor at the local hostelry.

Probably much the same has happened over the years.

 

I was a witness for a landlord and the tenant's barrister was overawed by ours and consequently slipped up on a number of details regarding the tenancy and sold his client short. I felt so sorry for the two tenant sisters who were country girls and looked the part in their summer frocks.

 

Our barrister is now head of the supreme court and I can still remember the joke he cracked to misfoot the opposition, he really was just like a performer in a theatrical play.

We're back on tomorrow........ And possibly Wednesday and Thursday. In Sharfend!!!

 

I spoke to the barrister this morning he told me that I can not take notes with me into the dock when I give evidence.

 

Should be interesting......... I thought we did the job two and half years ago, turns out it was three and half. How the hell am I supposed to remember, without notes what happend on each day?

You tell them you can't remember. That's the honest thing to do.
