P. 465
poor solicitor and not acting in your best interests. You only raised this today and I will most
certainly be taking this accusation up with Jemi and his clerks. I asked you to confirm this in
writing and you have refused to do this. I again ask you to confirm this in writing as Jemi will have
to respond to this allegation. I will be asking Jemi and his clerks to comment on the allegations that
you have made. You will of course appreciate that if Jemi does not agree with your accusations that
he will probably refuse to represent you. You are accusing him of slandering my reputation by
saying that Jemi says I am not representing you properly and that he advised you to change your
solicitors.
With regards to your complaint in relation to the bail variation you were asked in a number of
emails to provide full details of your plans, venues etc and you did not do this instead you shouted
down the phone and refused to give specific instructions. When you eventually did give the
requested information it was too late to apply to have the bail position varied. I suspect you know
what the court's attitude to the requested variation would be in any event.
With regards to the request for the original receipt I have to provide this to the court in an
addendum to your defence case statement and the police will then make their enquiries.
I am sorry that this position has arisen but you have left me little choice in the matter. I wish you
good luck with your case and I will confirm the date that your case is listed for the revocation of
legal aid. I will aim fro Tuesday or Wednesday of this coming week.
Can you please confirm by return email the advice that Jemi gave you at your conference at
Isleworth Crown Court and also please confirm why it took you so long to raise it with me. You
telephoned me on a Sunday, reserved for emergency phone calls. You should have raised it back
when you had the conference with Jemi. You have raised it now and I will deal with the
accusations now.
I await hearing from you by return email with regards to Jemi.
Regards
Josephine Ward
