                                      -AND-

                                 (DEFENDANT)

                            MR SIMON CORDELL

                             DIRECTIONS ORDER

                 Defendant was due to allegations of verbal abuse,
                 threats, harassment and intimidation made against
                 him by some of his neighbours
                 2.  I make this Witness Statement in support of
                    the Claimant's application dated 08th January
                    2018. This is my second witness statement in
                    the above proceedings.
                 Backgrounds to the case
                 3.  The Claimant obtained an interim injunction
                    against the Defendant on 09th August 2017
                    under claim number D02ED073. On 13th
                    December 2017, the Court made an order
                    striking out the Claimant's claim on the basis
                    that it failed to file its direction questionnaire
                    on 17th November 2017 as directed. The
                    Court stated that it received the Claimant's
                    questionnaire on 20th November 2017 and
                    therefore ordered that the Claim be struck out
                    and that the interim injunction order be
                    discharged.
                 4.  The Claimant's solicitor emailed the
                    Edmonton County Court on 14th November
                    2017 asking that the Claim be reinstated as it
                    had filed its direction questionnaire on 17th
                    November at 11.59 and was therefore within
                    time. The email has not been responded to
                    until today.
                 5.  On 03rd January 2018, the Claimant filed an
                    application notice at the Court by email asking
                    for the Claim to be reinstated. The application
                    was filed after the Court served an order dated
                    02nd January 2018 ordering the Claimant to
                    pay the Defendant’s legal costs. A copy of the
                    application notice can be found under exhibit
                    LN01.
                 6.  Mr Mathiyalagan who Is one of the
                    Defendant’s neighbours and resident at Flat
                    117 Bumcroft Avenue, Enfield contacted me
