ARRANGE OR BY PROVIDING SOUND
                 EQUIPMENT HE BELIEVED THE EVENT TO BE
                 A LICENSED EVENT AND THEREFORE WAS AN
                 INNOCENT SUPPLIER OF EQUIPMENT, AND IF
                 SO FOR WHICH RAVE OR RAVES IN
                 PARTICULAR.
                 The Appellant will state that he supplied equipment on
                 one occasion only, in good faith to what he believed to
                 be a private party. He did not attend the premises
                 beforehand and therefore did not know the equipment
                 would be used at a different place. The Appellant will
                 state that his equipment was restored to him by police
                 after they concluded he had no part in the event and
                 had innocently hired out his equipment. The event the
                 Appellant is referring to is Falcon Road.
                 The Appellant on no occasions cited in the
                 Respondent's bundle hired out any sound equipment,
                 audio equipment or organised any rave in the London
                 Borough of Enfield on the dates cited in the original
                 application.
                 PROPORTIONALITY:
                 The Appellant will state that the current ASBO was
                 imposed by the District Judge after the police had
                 failed to establish that the Appellant had engaged in
                 any acts of anti-social behaviour.
                 The Appellant will also argue that the Respondent
                 could not establish that the Appellant engaged in any
                 illegal acts. The Appellant will state that the
                 Respondent could not establish that any of the events
                 cited came within the definition of an illegal rave as
                 defined under section 63 of the CJPOA 1994.
                 The Appellant will state that the ASBO has
                 significantly impacted his ability to run his
                 Entertainment Company and also his future plans to
                 hold an open-air festival. The ASBO would
                 significantly prevent his ability to apply for licences to
                 run out-door festival events. No other entertainments
                 company is subject to the same due diligence when
                 hiring out equipment.
                 The Appellant will argue that the terms of the ASBO
                 are too restrictive and the geographical restriction too
                 broad, being that the ASBO was put in place for the
                 whole of the UK. Also, that the ASBO conditions have
                 never been defined, and due to this does not know
                 what he is allowed to do and what he is not, due to
                 how broad the conditions have been set.
                 The Court did not take into consideration the fact that
                 the Appellant was made subject an interim ASBO and
                 the duration was not reduced accordingly.
