I believe that this application is an attempt by members of the police and local Authority to find me guilty of
offences I have not committed in turn having an effect on my health and stopping me from developing my
company, and it is not acceptable or reasonable. I am in the process of developing a business plan for a
festival at Barley lands in Essex. I had planned to have this event in 2014, however, the stress of the ongoing
ASBO proceedings have stopped me from putting this festival on. I exhibit a draft business plan as exhibit
SC/3, and a business submission form for a community festival as exhibit SC/4.
I was once arrested by members of the police outside White Sands Nightclub on 14 November 2013 at
th
Brixton Hill and I had my van seized. The reason given for stopping me was that I had "tools of the trade” in my
van and my insurance did not cover driving a vehicle on this basis. My vehicle was seized as it was alleged
that I did not have insurance. I was actually insured at the time, and there were no tools in my van. I exhibit
proof of my insurance as exhibit SC/4. A police officer gave incorrect evidence in court that he had not taken
my vehicle because there were tools in it; however, he had made an inconsistent statement previously saying
that there were tools in the van. I exhibit proof of this incident as exhibits SC/5, a witness statement
authenticating the sound recordings I have submitted, exhibit SC/6, transcripts of sound recordings of
conversations with police personnel and my insurance company, and exhibit SC/7, a sound recording of a
phone call from a police officer to my insurance company, and exhibit SC/8, a further sound recording of a
phone call between the insurance company and the police car pound. I was convicted of driving without
insurance on the basis of his evidence. I am appealing against conviction on the basis that the police officer
gave incorrect evidence to court. My insurance company has provided me with a letter of indemnity and
witness statement in this respect; however, I am currently banned from driving as a result of the officer’s
incorrect evidence. I exhibit the clerk’s notes from the Magistrates Court trial verifying that the police officer
told the court that my Van had not been seized because of there being tools in the Van, and a covering email
from Lavender Hill Magistrates Court, as exhibit SC/9, and I exhibit proof that I am currently banned from
driving as exhibit SC/10. I had a legitimate reason for being at White Sands Nightclub as I was discussing
becoming entertainment manager for White Sands Nightclub; I was going to see a friend about the possibility
of a job interview. My van was empty on the date in question.
I accept that I own entertainment equipment. I have acquired these for my company. I am trying to build a
company, and the aim was to rent the equipment out to people. I have prepared draft terms and conditions of
business that I exhibit as SC/11. I was trying to hire the equipment out to conferences, school fates, local
community events, private birthday parties until the stress became too
