Dear Clare,

Please see attached interim injunction order that the London Borough of Enfield obtained against a
council housing tenant (Simon Cordell of 109 Burncroft Avenue) in January 18. We attended court
th
on 30 May 18 as the matter was listed for the return date for the injunction and for an application
for committal following incidents which we submit have breached the terms. At the hearing DJ Dias
was concerned about Mr Cordell's mental health following submissions from his mother in his
absence. Although we have no evidence that he does not have capacity the Judge wants to satisfy
herself that there are no issues in him understanding the injunction and the proceedings. Therefore
she has made an order (a draft of which is attached) including that:

th
By 4pm on 13 June the Defendant shall undergo a medical assessment by the community mental
health team at an appointment to be arranged of which the defendant (Simon Cordell) shall be
given at least 24 hours' notice and a report shall be prepared in relation to the Defendant's
capacity to litigate and capacity to understand the meaning of the interim injunction dated 9 th
January 18 and that report shall be filed at court and served on each party to the litigation.

Apologies for the short timescale but could you please arrange for an appointment to be given to
the defendant (Simon Cordell) as per the court order in order for these issues to be clarified.

It would also be useful for some clarification about if Mr Cordell has been known to mental health
services previously including the history and assessments or any previous sections etc

Please let me know if you need any more detail or wish to discuss this further

We await your reply
