Dear Garum
I am interested, but not at this precise moment in time and not until I have overcome the hurdle that I face of the 10 November 2023, 2 pm Trial Hearing of myself at North Kent Magistrates Court sitting at Medway Magistrates Court as attached: LetterfromNKMCHearingTrial10Nov_2pm.pdf.
I had made my arguments to the Court as well as to Kent Police and the Court of Appeal under Court Reference CA-2023-000750 yesterday but there was no acknowledgment let alone a considered adjudication for the disputed Court proceedings.
Still we are where we are and I am aware that under the Constitution of the United Kingdom which provides Magistrates and Judges on the day of the Hearing and not before, I will attend the Court on the Trial Date and see what the Magistrate of the day decides on the progress of the Case in terms of directions that will no doubt be issued then.
Above all I must persevere with the Case as I am claiming £4 million in damages and compensation from Kent Police for the false arrests that total 6 in number, seizure of family property (computers, Memory Sticks, Mobile Phones and Amazon pads) and unjust Bail conditions that have been imposed on me for my attendance at Medway Police Station on 28 September 2023, 1600, hours and on 10 October 2023 1600 hours that I am obliged to attend as things stand now.
My Duty Solicitor is Olives Solicitors who are duly informed of my latest position herewith in relation to the contractual agreement as attached: FrOlives Solicitorsletter19April.docx
My apologies for not having responded earlier to your enquiry.
Yours sincerely

There may be occasion when I am not available to speak to you directly, if this occurs, you will be able to leave a message with my assistant who will help you with any queries.
Scope of work
The work that we will undertake for you will include:
To advise and represent you in relation to all aspects of an investigation into alleged offences involving you, including: obtaining your instructions; attending upon, liaising and communicating on your behalf with the police as reasonably necessary; applying for negotiating the condition of any police and/or court bail; advising upon any proposed non-charge outcomes or the available and appropriate plea/s to any charg/s; explaining and advising upon all applicable legislation and procedure.
AND
To advise and represent you in a plea of gulty or defence of the charge/s against you, including: obtaining your instructions; all necessary court appearances, considering and advising upon prosecution papers and any other evidence; attending upon, liaising and connunicating on your behalf with the police and the Crown Prosecution Service as reasonably necessary; applying for and negotiating the conditions of any bail; advising upon, preparing and making appropriate submissions on sentence; advising upon, preparing and presenting any appropriate evidence in support of mitigation; contacting liaising with and obtaining references/statements reports from any witnesses; explaining and advising upon all applicable legislation and procedure, including the nature and effect of any sentence and as to the merit and grounds for any possible appeal. If required: briefing and instructing counsel if agreed.
Funding
As already explained to you at the police station, we are acting for you under the Government Legal Representation Scheme. We are providing you advice and assistance at the police station under the scheme known as Police Station Attendance Scheme. This provides you with free legal advice whilst you have been arrested or have to attend a police station during a criminal investigation. Every time.
I can confirm that should you be charged with an offence, we are able in certain instances to act for you under the government’s legal aid scheme. In order to make an application for legal aid funding, we will require evidence of your income and expenditure, and details of any government benefits you receive. The application will also require details of family circumstances such as any partner or children currently living with you. In order to progress the application please ensure this information is made available to us as soon as possible. If granted a Legal Aid Representation Order you may not have to pay a contribution to the cost of your case. In this circumstances, it will not be necessary for you to be given an estimate of thelikely total costs of matters. However, you should be aware that should you be convicted of the charge, the court will make an order that you pay the prosecutions costs and any compensation, if applicable.
Automatic legal aid funding
Legal aid applicants aged under 18 or those in receipt of government benefits do not need to pay for the work we do in the magistrates’ court or the Crown Court. The relevant benefits are
- Income Support,
- Income-Based Job Seeker’s Allowance,
- Universal Credit,
- Guaranteed State Pension Credit and
- Income-related Employment and Support Allownance.
A copy of the National Insurance Number is required in oreder to confirm the government benefits.
Eligibility considerations in other CasesThe decision to award legal aid is based on the details of the case, called the Interests of Justice Test (Considerations of issues like any previous convictions, the nature of the offence and the risk of custody), and the financial situation, called the Means Test (consideration of your financial circumstances including household income, outgoings and expenses, any capital and equity, and any family circumstances).
What Does the Legal Representation Order Cover
Unless otherwise specified the Order will cover preparation of your case from commencement to conclusion including representation at Court during the proceedings. In addition, at the Crown Court, the order will allow us to instruct a barrister on your behalf. The Order will further cover the fess of experts, interpreters and other disbursements incurred in your case.
You have a legal duty to inform us or the court of any changes to your financial circumstances. We must also inform you about the possible withdrawal of your Legal Representation. The Legal representation maybe withdrawn if during the course of the proceedings, you give us wrong or misleading information or unreasonable instruction or you fail to co-operate with our reasonable request causing us to withdraw from acting for you.
Crown Court – Recovery of Defence Costs Order
If your case goes to the Crown Court for trial you will not automatically qualify for legally aided representation once you have completed an application form. After you have been means tested, you may have to pay towards the cost of your defence. This could be from your income while the case is ongoing and/or from your capital, if you are convicted.
You will be asked to provide evidence of your income and assets. If you do not, your payments could be increased which would result in you paying more towards your defence costs. If you do not tell the truth on your legal aid application about your income, assets and expenditure you could be prosecuted.
You will not have to pay towards the costs of your case if you are under 18 when you make your application or if you receive any of the following benefits: income support, income-based jobseeker’s allowance, guaranteed state pension credit or income related employment and support allowance.
You may have to pay towards the costs if your monthly disposable income is above a certain level. If this is the case, you will receive a Contribution Order from the court and you will have to make payments as required under the Order. The first payment will be due within 28 days of your case being committed, sent or transferred for trial.
You must tell the court about any changes to your financial circumstances during your case because a change may affect the amount you have to pay towards your defence costs. If you don’t think you can afford to pay, or think that a mistake has been made, you can ask for a review of the amount the court has told you to pay.
At the end of the case, if you are found not guilty, any payments youhave made will be refunded with interest. If you paid late or not at all and action was taken against you, the costs of this actionwill be deducted from the refund.
If you are found guilty, you may have to pay towards your defence costs from any Capital assets you may have. This would only apply if:
. You have £30,000 or more of assets, for example: savings, equity in property, shares or Premium Bonds; and
. Any payments you have already made have not covered your total defence costs.
You will be told at the end or your case if you have to make a payment from capital.
Discharge and Revocation of the representation Order
Although we are acting for you under the representation order, in some circumstances, for example as stated above the Legal Service Commission may discharge or revoke the order. If the order is discharged you will be liable for all your costs from the start of the case because you will be treated as if you had never been legally aided in the first place. If you have any questions regarding the above then please do not hesitate to contact me.
Consenting to Audit Inspection
As oart of our Contract requirements with the Legal Aid Agency, we are obliged to carry out an audit inspection of our files. This may include your file at a later stage once your case has come to a conclusion.

Dear Sirs
Re: Your Criminal Law Matter at Medway Police Station
I write to confirm the outcome of your arrest and interview by police at Medway Police Station on 28th March 2023 when you were represented by Philippa Beswick of Olives Solicitors
You were questioned for the offences of malicious communications
Your Instructions
Your instructions were that you are not the sender of any emails and your account must have been hacked
Our Advice
We explained the elements of the alleged offence and we explained the usual police station procedure and you rights as a suspect in police custody.
We told you that after the interview, the police have a number of options:
1) to take no further action against you,
2) to caution you.
3) To charge you to court with an offence, or
4) To give you bail to return to the police station on another day whiles they make further enquiries
We informed you about the disclosure made by the police and that you were to be interviewed under caution. We explained the caution to you in the three parts as follows:
1. pointing out that you have the right to remain silent
2. explaining adverse inference to you that, if you have a defence or reasonable explanation and refuse to give it when being questioned, should the matter proceed to court and you decide to give the explanation the court may not believe you, in the absence of a reasonable excuse; and
3. anything you say may be used in evidence.
You were advised to advance denials in interview and answer the questions.
Outcome
You have been Bailed to Return to Medway Police Station on 18th June 2023 at 5pm
Should you fail to return on bail to the police station when advised to do so then you could be charged with an offence of failing to answer your bail contrary to the Bail Act.
Action to be taken
To assist us in carrying out the work as efficiently as possible, please could you ensure that all information provided is to the best of your knowledge complete, accurate and up to date. Please could you also notify us of any changes or variations to that information which may arise after the date it is passed to us and of any new circumstances that might be relevant to the work that we have agree to do for you.
Please let me know if my understanding of your instructions, as detailed above, is in any way incorrect or if you require further clarification on any issue.
Yours Sincerely
(Signed: Olives)
