Subject: Regina v. Simon Cordell further application to vary bail and suspend curfew on 25th and
26thAugust 2013
Dear Simon / Lorraine
Simon it is my understanding that your mother is having internet difficulties at present. I sent over a
number of emails this weekend which I will try to forward over to you from my trash box.
Re: application to remove reporting condition. I confirm that I have lodged this application already.
Re: application to suspend curfew for
25th
And
26th August 2013
Simon, I have requested written confirmation from Omar Lawrence that you have been awarded the
contract together with the particulars of the contract as the Court will undoubtedly ask for this
information. There is also a risk that the Court / Police will check that the contract is genuine, and this
may well entail telephoning Omar Lawrence to check the detail. It is not unusual for the court to
check bail addresses by analogy, so I am merely putting you on notice of this fact. I will not have any
control over the information that is provided by the police to Mr Omar Lawrence, but they will have
to identify themselves as police officers and this may raise questions about why police are making
these enquiries. Your mother has explained that you may lose the contract as a result of this and
unfortunately, I do not have any control over this. The options therefore available to you are as
follows:
(1) Attend the festival during the curfew hours and then go home
(2) Apply to the court to vary the electronic curfew and request that the court do not disclose details of
your criminal history or current court case. However, Mr Lawrence may well wonder why an enquiry
has been made
(3) Do not make any application and take your chances this is not advised as you will be arrested for
breaching your bail and there is a high risk of remand to prison until the conclusion of your case
(4) Discuss the matter with Omar Lawrence beforehand so that he is aware, and he can confirm this in
the email to the court. The risk with this is that he may use you for this festival but may seek an
alternative resource next year
(5) The final option of course is not to make the application and attend in person during your curfew
hours and get an alternative person who you trust to look after your equipment overnight on
25th August 2013
This option allows you to retain the potential for further contracts via your company, ensures that
future clients are not aware of your previous criminal history and will also safeguard any future
contracts with Enfield Council. Clearly this is a matter that you need to consider very carefully and
weigh up the pros and cons of each option. I am aware how important this festival is to you and your
business. If you decide to make the application to vary bail, then I will need the following from you
by
15th August 2013:
1. Letter from Omar Lawrence that you are hired for the festival
157
I will need this information by
15th August
as the court and CPS will require 5 days to agree the matter administratively, failing which I will ask
for a fixed hearing on
