and show him the document that was handed to the Judge on
                 that date. On entering the Court, The Appellant barrister Mr
                 Locke addressed the Judge and said The Appellant did not
                 want him to act for him, but this was not fully the case The
                 Appellant only wanted to be able to speak to his barrister.
                 The Judge informed The Appellant barrister to remain in the
                 Court room, the Judge asked what the case was listed for and
                 the prosecuting barrister addressed the Court and answered
                 and also handed the schedule to the barrister, they also said
                 to the Judge that The Appellant had been sending letters to
                 the Court and the prosecution myself which stated I Simon
                 Cordell throughout the document. This is not the case and
                 The Appellant did not understand their comment or what
                 document the prosecuting barrister was talking about. The
                 Judge then addressed The Appellant and asked The
                 Appellant did The Appellant still want the barrister to act for
                 The Appellant, The Appellant replied yes to the Judge that
                 he did want the barrister to act for him; The Appellant stated
                 that he only wanted time to speak to his barrister, as I had
                 not spoken to a barrister since the Magistrate’s hearing. The
                 Judge then addressed The Appellant barrister he said that
                 The Appellant still wanted the barrister to act for The
                 Appellant, The Appellant barrister agreed to this. The Judge
                 also stated he felt he was not the best person to be hearing
                 this case and passed it over to the Judge that was hearing the
                 Appeal. On leaving the Court room The Appellant and his
                 mother proceeded to go into a side room to talk with The
                 Appellant barrister, we explained that a letter had been
                 handed to the Judge on the
                 04/04/2016
                 he said he knew nothing of this letter so we handed him a
                 copy for him to read. Once he read this he said he knew
                 nothing about this and had only seen one document that kept
                 saying I Simon Cordell, (The Appellant have no idea what
                 this I Simon Cordell letter until later) The Appellant mother
                 proceeded to explained this is why The Appellant wanted to
                 talk to you before going into Court as this is part of the Non-
                 disclosure. The barrister explained he only knew about the
                 schedule to which The Appellant mother replied, the
                 schedule had been asked for by the Judge in addition to the
                 letter that had been handed in that the Judge stated could be
                 used as my skeleton argument, that Miss Ward was in the
                 Court on the
                 04/04/2016
                 and was taking notes, and knew exactly what the Judge had
                 asked for and said.
                 The Appellant mother then made a call to The Appellant
                 solicitor and enquired as to what the Judge had asked for on
                 the
                 04/04/2016
