I believe that this application is an attempt by members of the police and
                 local Authority to find me guilty of offences I have not committed in turn
                 having an effect on my health and stopping me from developing my
                 company, and it is not acceptable or reasonable. I am in the process of
                 developing a business plan for a festival at Barley lands in Essex. I had
                 planned to have this event in 2014, however, the stress of the ongoing
                 ASBO proceedings have stopped me from putting this festival on. I
                 exhibit a draft business plan as exhibit SC/3, and a business submission
                 form for a community festival as exhibit SC/4.
                 I was once arrested by members of the police outside White Sands
                 Nightclub on 14th November 2013 at Brixton Hill and I had my van
                 seized. The reason given for stopping me was that I had "tools of the
                 trade” in my van and my insurance did not cover driving a vehicle on this
                 basis. My vehicle was seized as it was alleged that I did not have
                 insurance. I was actually insured at the time, and there were no tools in
                 my van. I exhibit proof of my insurance as exhibit SC/4. A police officer
                 gave incorrect evidence in court that he had not taken my vehicle because
                 there were tools in it; however, he had made an inconsistent statement
                 previously saying that there were tools in the van. I exhibit proof of this
                 incident as exhibits SC/5, a witness statement authenticating the sound
                 recordings I have submitted, exhibit SC/6, transcripts of sound recordings
                 of conversations with police personnel and my insurance company, and
                 exhibit SC/7, a sound recording of a phone call from a police officer to
                 my insurance company, and exhibit SC/8, a further sound recording of a
                 phone call between the insurance company and the police car pound. I
                 was convicted of driving without insurance on the basis of his evidence. I
                 am appealing against conviction on the basis that the police officer gave
                 incorrect evidence to court. My insurance company has provided me with
                 a letter of indemnity and witness statement in this respect; however, I am
                 currently banned from driving as a result of the officer’s incorrect
                 evidence. I exhibit the clerk’s notes from the Magistrates Court trial
                 verifying that the police officer told the court that my Van had not been
                 seized because of there being tools in the Van, and a covering email from
                 Lavender Hill Magistrates Court, as exhibit SC/9, and I exhibit proof that
                 I am currently banned from driving as exhibit SC/10. I had a legitimate
                 reason for being at White Sands Nightclub as I was discussing becoming
                 entertainment manager for White Sands Nightclub; I was going to see a
                 friend about the possibility of a job interview. My van was empty on the
                 date in question.
                 I accept that I own entertainment equipment. I have acquired these for my
                 company. I am trying to build a company, and the aim was to rent the
                 equipment out to people. I have prepared draft terms and conditions of
                 business that I exhibit as SC/11. I was trying to hire the equipment out to
                 conferences, school fates, local community events, private birthday
                 parties until the stress became too
