A brief overview of where I am with my cases
I thought I would give you all a brief overview where I am within all my cases, before I go away for 5 days to disability 'Social Inclusion' conferences, held near Blackpool and another one on Thursday in Hull.
You will all be get some peace in the 'cyber-world' then for a few days while I am away at these Conferences. Will you all miss me then?(irony) :-))
Within my case with the East Riding of Yorkshire Council and all local NHS Trusts they agreed to commission a careplan by Jo Todd, Key4Learning, which was carried out by Christine Breakey and Jill Aylott As you are aware. Also there had been another care-plan carried out by Connie Young, Senior Manager within ERYC Social Services within East Riding of Yorkshire Council at the same time, which was presented at my last joint-agency multi-agency care-planning review in January 2004.
At my meeting yesterday, also the East Riding of Yorkshire Council would not accept this care-plan too, that was carried out by their own Senior Manager with Social Services who had been working on my case, since about 1996.
I also need to bring to your attention, that on 11th September 03, a meeting with ERYC Social Services was convened with my previous legal advocate Mr Clive Yeadon, Ridley and Hall Solicitors( acting on the instructions of my previous Barrister Stephen Field). This meeting was arranged to discuss my careplan and implementation of them within a 'reasonable-time-limit'. At This meeting was Mr Yeadon(Solicitor), Sheila Leathley(ERYC Solicitor), Connie Young(senior Manager within Social Services who had been involved in my case since 1996) and myself.
The outcome from this meeting was that East Riding of Yorkshire Council and all the local NHS Trusts had 'six-weeks' to implement my careplans and recommendations of Dr Shah and others then if they don't then my legal advocates came me their undertaken and promise they would take my case to the courts.
How many times had I heard this in the last 10 years by legal advocates and they never deliver on their promises and just take the 'legal-aid' money and run and leave clients isolated and alone 'high and dry', especially if you make complaints, then you are definitely 'struck-off' their books for asserting your concerns about their management and professional incompetence in acting with a duty of care in their clients best interests and taken clear instructions from clients (this is all within the Solicitors code of practice) and then when you do complain against legal-advocates you feel powerless as a client to do anything about this, as I and others within my case have experienced 'over and over' again all these years.
As before within my cases by previous legal advocates the promises my Mr Yeadon and Mr Field never materialised ain taken my cases through the next stages of the legal 'due-process' these previous legal advocates did not follow my clear instructions to take the matter onto 'judicial-review( High Court) and the local Courts for continued failure of duty of care, clinical negligence(personal injuries), disability discrimination and basic human and Civil rights abuses, especially when the 'public-bodies had not carried out their 'positive-obligations' within the six week to implement my care-plans, so when I approached my 'legal-advocates', especially Mr Field he became very defensive and also Mr Yeadon did too. I asked them clearly why they had not taken the 'next-steps' within the legal 'due-process', win which they could not answer.
I will hasten to add that Mr Stephen field, Barrister had been the instructing barrister with my case, since 1996 and he had not taken my case through the legal 'due-process' appropriately within a 'reasonable time-limit' and I tried to make complaints to his chambers, but they wouldn't let me make complaints.
I went to the BAR Council and Law Society to make complaints abut the 'professional-negligence' by all my previous solicitors and barristers, but I have 'hit' continuous 'brick-walls' here. The Law Society have refused to make 'reasonable-adjustments' within my case as a neurodiverse disabled person to take any of my complaints through their complaints procedures against all my previous solicitors within my 'preferred-formats'. So I have been denied the basic human and civil rights to a 'fair-hearing' in making complaints against all my previous solicitors, as Mr Adrian Whyatt, peer-advocate and others are well informed within my case.
I went to the Legal Services Ombudsman on these matters, but experienced the same disability discrimination and abuse within my case and they refused to 'upheld' my complaints.
Mr Whyatt then became involved within my case and together we have complained against two instructing barristers within my case that is Mr Stephen Field Dr Nicholas Armstrong( he was instructing solicitors on my educational negligence case). Mr Whyatt and I have prepared a report for the BAR Council in my complaints against Mr Field and we are still waiting the outcome on this. The Bar Council refused to 'upheld' my complaints against Dr Armstrong and that case has now gone to the next stage of the 'due-process' to the Legal Services Ombudsman who are investigating this complaint at present against Dr Armstrong.
As I have said I am powerless to take any further legal proceedings within my case due to District Judge Besford 'staying' all my cases with the 'Official Solicitors Office for reports on my 'mental-incapacity'' I am not 'mentally-incapacitated' and being neurodiverse doses 'not mean a person is 'mentally-incapacitated'( this has been highlighted recently in a case in the U.K called:- (the 'Piers Bolduc case.). DJ Besford had no understanding of this case and the Kingston Upon Hull Court Service refused to meet my full access needs, especially in providing me with the appropriate legal and independent advocate within my cases. I had 'no' support at my last Court-Hearing'. My previous 'peer-advocate' at this hearing Brian Clare walked out of the Court in 'disgust' ,because he stated to the Court that I was 'not being given a 'fair-hearing' within the Court by DJ Besford and I was being discriminated against as A neurodiverse disabled person and I was under 'immense stress' that exacerbated and triggered my neurodiverse behavioural symptoms and behaviour within the Courts, especially due to me not having my full access needs met and also not being provided with the appropriate specialist independent advocate and legal advocate at this hearing. Also, at this hearing Mr Clare and I were refused access to my all court-files before this hearing and 'no' 'reasonable-adjustments' where made within the court to meet my full access-needs.
The Department for Constitutional Affairs(DfCA) Court Service had commissioned a report of my full 'access-needs by Jo Todd, Key4Learning, but her recommendations where not implemented within her report. I was also promised a full transcript and audio-tape from the Court as disabled 'litigant in person' from this hearing.
If you are not aware, that I have been informed by Kingston Upon Hull Court Service and DfCA Court Service, London, that these audio-tapes have been 'mysteriously' lost in transit by their 'courier service. I am very angry at this and this is an interference within the legal 'due-process' in evidence, in 'my defense' going missing from my last hearing which I need, especially when things was said by DJ Besford and to DJ Besford by myself and others which has great bearing on the 'outcome' of all my cases, especially around the 'injunction' served on me that I had made my counter legal challenge.
As I have informed people this week also I have been informed, only this week, by the Information Commissioners that my request for all data within my case on this 'injunction' in East Riding of Yorkshire Council providing me all CCTV footage for my 'defense-case' to challenge this 'injunction' that all the material-evidence' the CCTV footage as been 'destroyed'. They have destroyed material evidence for my defense-case to challenge this 'injunction' served on me 'ultra-vires' and unlawfully within my opinion under the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 and Human Rights Act 1998. The CCTV footage is taken from Anlaby Customer Services Centre, in which where East Riding and served their 'ex-parte on 'injunction' in keeping out of this 'public-building'.
What does this say?
I have also tried making complaints about the lost audio-tapes and transcript from my last Court Hearing to the DfCA Court Service and also complaints about the continued disability discrimination and basic human and civil rights abuses within my case, especially in my full access-needs not being met and especially me not being provided with the specialist legal and independent advocate within the Court Hearings, under my 'right to a 'fair-hearings' , under Article 6; HRA 1998 and DDA 1995, in which I am experience inhumane and degrading treatment(Article 3;HRA) and being discriminated as a neurodiverse disabled person, under Article 14; HRA and this is impacting on my family and private life(Article 8:HRA).
I am also continuously being denied and serious violated of my basic human and civil rights to 'freedom of speech' (Article 10:HRA) and 'right to protest' (Article 11; HRA). also due to my asserting my Article 10 and 11 rights I have suffered the great indignity and 'immense-stress' of me being violated of these basic fundamental rights and all these public bodies have used unreasonable behaviour in trying to infringe all my conventional rights.
I have been unlawfully arrested and threatened with arrest on numerous occasions by the Humberside Police and unlawfully imprisoned on the instructions on the same 'public-bodies who have 'positive obligations' to protect me from any harm and owe a duty of care towards me. I have suffered this abuse for asserting my basic human rights in protesting about the lack of care in my case all these years and that other neurodiverse children, adults, families and carers and within my research work. This is a serious violation of my basic human and civil rights, under Article 6; HRA (Rights to Liberty and Security). They have interfered within my 'Right to Life', especially in obstructing my research and interfering with me 'earning a living'
The DfCA Court Service have refused to take all my complaints and concerns through their complaints procedures and through their
'due-process' and will not correspond or discuss these matters with me any further at an interface level and they are denying me my basic human and civil rights to a 'fair-hearing' (article 6;HRA)
What does all his say to you all?
It says to me that my 'embattlements' are far from over yet and I can't 'relax' yet and have some peace within my life and rest within my armchair with my 'pipe and slippers'. It will be the 10 years in February 2005, since I accessed my GP records and my daily embattlement in searching for 'the-truth' and 'justice in my case began. On retrospect now I didn't think I would still be at it now at toady's date.
My fight for 'justice in my case and that for all other 'neurodiverse' disabled people and all disabled people will have to continue and my 'pipe and slippers' will have to stay in the box a bit longer. :-))
Speak to you all soon when I get back from these Conferences. It will allow me to have some 'respite' from these horrible very poor squalid 'toxic-fumed' living conditions that I experience 24/7 that impacts on my overall health and well being and I will have an opportunity to have a bath and sleep in a warm, nice and comfortable hotel room until Tuesday.
I will be working at this Conference, in Blackpool and doing a talk of 'neurodiversity' with my colleague Janet Taylor, from DANDA.

Take-care everyone and I thank you all for your continued peer-support and advocacy within my case.
