Crown Court Day 1 & 2

Maurice — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 09:34:00 GMT

Maurice is still battling for his rights in the case in the Crown Court Cardiff.

He has had huge difficulty accessing his papers whilst in the Prison, again in the custody suite when he wishes to consult and also in court where documents such as witness statements are producd by the CPS at the last minute .

The acoustics are so bad in the court that it is hard to hear every word spoken. It is clear that this is always the case in that particular room, Court 8. Maurice is still requiring the medical reports from Caswell Clinic which form part of the evidence which has caused several judges to refuse him bail. Without them how can he rebut the evidence?

News From Prison

Maurice — Thu, 21 Jan 2010 10:24:00 GMT

Civil Court Judge has ordered the South Wales Police to produce the 52 files for Maurice but when they eventually arrived the Prison Authorities refused to give any to him. At last, with more delay, they have allowed him access to 6 files at a time (so no cross-referencing possible) and each batch available every day or so thus meaning he has no time to prepare for his criminal case which starts 25^th Jan. He is still being denied his laptop on which he has filed evidence.

Because he has recently won a case for excessive physical restraint against Reliance, the firm employed to move prisoners from Prison to court, hospital etc, they have seen to it that he has even more restrictions placed on his visiting rights.

Civil Proceedings Lodged

Maurice — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 17:48:00 GMT

Maurice started his Civil Proceedings against the South Wales Police this morning in the County Court.

The Solicitors, acting for the Police, admitted in court that they had no copy of their complaint to the Police against Maurice which led to his arrest on 22^nd June. He had been accused of threatening to throw the bundle of witness exchange papers into the building, as he was not allowed in and they would not accept them.

Further, the Judge has ordered the Police to identify the police officers involved over the last 20 years in over 100 incidents where they have proof of which ones were involved.
