Supplemental Witness Statement
Unlawful Actions and Misconduct
I, [Your Name], submit this supplemental witness statement to condemn the unlawful actions taken by Legal Advisors Hughes and Adam Abbot-Smith, along with representatives Scot Robert Fawcus, Miss Emily Lewin, Alan Stoves, and Damian Francis Allen under the City of Doncaster Council at the Administrative Civil National Business Centre (CNBC). These actions have resulted in a significant miscarriage of justice.
Their unlawful handling of my council tax arrears and the imposition of a Charging Order on my property violate established legal standards. This represents a deliberate attempt to seize my principal home, constituting an abuse of power with complete disregard for my legal rights.
Supporting Case Law:
*. R v. Somerset County Council ex parte Dixon [*] * WLR *: Public bodies acting beyond their powers are subject to judicial review.
*. Anufrijeva v. Southwark London Borough Council [*] * AC *: Public authorities must act fairly, and failure to do so results in harm.
*. R (on the application of Lumba) v. Secretary of State for the Home Department [*] * AC *: Unlawful actions by public authorities violating legal procedures and human rights cannot stand.
*. Ghaidan v. Godin-Mendoza [*] * AC *: Failing to accommodate protected characteristics, such as disability, is discriminatory and unlawful.
*. R (on the application of Coughlan) v. North and East Devon Health Authority [*] * All ER *: Public authorities must act transparently, justly, and in good faith.
*. R v. Leeds City Council [*] EWCA Civ *: Council enforcement actions must be fair and proportionate.
Unlawful Use of Single Justice Procedure
The decision to process my council tax debt under the Single Justice Procedure is a fundamental abuse of process, resulting in a miscarriage of justice. This procedure, designed for minor criminal offences, is unsuitable for civil financial matters such as council tax arrears, violating my right to a fair trial under Article * of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).
Supporting Case Law:
*. R v. Bexley Magistrates' Court [*] EWHC * (Admin): Single Justice Procedure is inappropriate for civil debts.
*. R (on the application of S) v. London Borough of Hackney [*] EWHC * (Admin): Application of procedures outside their intended scope constitutes a misuse of public power.
Failure to Produce a Lawful Liability Order
The issuance of binding legal orders by the CNBC violates my fundamental right to a fair hearing under Article * ECHR, as it is not a judicial body. Decisions affecting legal rights, especially regarding property, must be made by an independent and impartial tribunal.
Supporting Case Law:
*. Findlay v. United Kingdom [*] * EHRR *: Decisions involving property must be made by an independent tribunal.
*. Piersack v. Belgium [*] ECHR *: Need for actual and apparent independence and impartiality of any tribunal.
*. R (on the application of McCall) v. The Lord Chancellor [*] EWHC * (Admin): Decisions by non-judicial bodies compromise fairness.
Unlawfully Rejected N244 Submission
On * November *, I submitted an N244 application to Doncaster County Court challenging the unlawful Interim Charging Order issued by the CNBC. My submission was returned without formal explanation, constituting a denial of justice and procedural fairness.
Supporting Case Law:
*. R v. Secretary of State for the Home Department, ex parte Doody [*] * AC *: Procedural fairness requires a fair opportunity to present one's case.
*. R v. Bow Street Magistrates' Court, ex parte Choudhury [*] * QB *: Failure to process or consider an application on its merits could render the decision void.
Unlawful Issuance of Final Charging Order
On * January *, the CNBC unlawfully issued a Final Charging Order against my home without judicial involvement, violating established legal procedures and my rights under Article * ECHR.
Supporting Case Law:
*. R (on the application of A) v. HM Treasury [*] UKSC *: Judicial discretion cannot be transferred to non-judicial bodies.
*. R (on the application of McCall) v. The Lord Chancellor [*] EWHC * (Admin): Administrative bodies do not have the authority to issue binding legal orders.
*. Findlay v. United Kingdom [*] * EHRR *: Importance of judicial independence and impartiality in decisions affecting property rights.
I respectfully request that the court review and rectify the unlawful actions described, ensuring that justice is served.
