3. This matter was allocated to the Claimant's
Legal Services department in August 2017,
following many complaints received from some of
the Claimant’s employees and residents living in
the same block as the Defendant. The Claimant’s
anti-social Behaviour team instructed our legal
services to issue an application for an injunction
under the Anti- Social Behaviour , Crime and
Policing Act 2014.
4. An ex-parte application was made and the
Court made an interim injunction order against the
Defendant on 09th August 2017. The matter was
re-listed for a return hearing on 21st August 2017
but adjourned to 25th September 2017 where the
Defendant attended with his legal representative.
The Defendant indicated that it wished to defend
the claim and some directions order was made.
5. The parties were ordered to file their
directions questionnaire by 23rd October 2017;
however, this deadline was overlooked by me and
the Court made an order on 06th November 2017
asking the Claimant to file a completed directions
questionnaire by 4pm on 17th November 2017. A
copy of the Order can be found under exhibit L11.
6. On 17th November 2017 at 11 ;59, I sent
an email to the Court on the following address:
enauiries@edmonton.countvcourt.asi.Qov.uk.
with a copy of the Claimant’s directions
questionnaire. The Defendant’s solicitors were
also copied into this email. A copy of this email is
attached in exhibit LI2.
7. Just before filing the directions
questionnaire with the Court, I contacted the
Defendant's solicitors on 16th November 2017,
Mr Emmanuel Onwusiri of VLS Solicitors, with a
suggested draft directions order. However, he
responded by saying that it was not necessary to
agree directions in the proposed form. He was
therefore fully aware of the fact that I was about to
file the Claimant’s directions questionnaire. A
copy of my email correspondence to Mr Onwusiri
can be found in exhibit LI3.
