Hi Terry,
Up until now I had representation, but run out of money , spending £90k and that includes £35k of debt.
I would like you opinion on this matter below.
About 10 days before my final hearing, the Applicants solicitor filed directly to court 15 points of reasons why final hearing should be adjourned. His 15 point I believe he has seriously broken the SRA code of conduct.
He spoke about a case which is running alongside my divorce, it is a non molestation case that he DOES NOT represent her for . He made a statement direct to court that I was “wielding a knife at her”. How can he speak about someone else’s case and also state this directly to court ( to influence a judges decision to adjourn ? )
I instantly went to the police station following this and made a ROC Report for harrassment as he is telling court lies and he has no place to do so as he doesn’t represent her on the non molestation case.
I even asked the Police to read my wife’s log from the incident and he confirmed nothing was written about weilding a knife. He and his client have made something up to influence courts decision to adjourn.
How serious is this an offence in the eyes of the SRA ? Can he be investigated and when proven , can he be ultimately struck off as practising as a Solucitor ?
