going on in this case and that he was not coping. Information
                 was passed to the Judge that showed The Appellant was
                 unwell. It was also stated in regards to all the missing
                 documents that was missing from The Appellant’s bundle,
                 and that there was no statements within the bundle, I stated
                 to the Judge that I’d spent a lot of the weekend trying to
                 update The Appellant’s bundle and make sure that it was
                 indexed correctly, I handed the documents that The
                 Appellant mother was able to do with new indexing, The
                 Appellant mother also stated that she knew there was still
                 documents missing from The Appellant’s bundle which she
                 was not sure about or had time in which to add them. The
                 Appellant mother also stated that there were around 13
                 statements that we had never seen that were within the
                 Respondent bundle that was dated prior to the Magistrate’s
                 trial. The Judge was very unhappy and passed me his own
                 bundle for The Appellant mother to check to see if the
                 Courts bundles had been updated, upon looking the Judge’s
                 bundle had also not been updated since
                 2015
                 The Appellant mother passed the Judge’s bundle back up to
                 him explaining that it also had not been updated.
                 At this the Respondent stated they would make new copies
                 of the bundles and have they sent to us the Judge thanked the
                 Respondent. The Judge was very unhappy and said he was
                 not going to allow this to be dropped and again made the
                 clerk of the Court call Michael Carroll and co to order them
                 to attend Court on the
                 14/10/2016
                 in regards to the missing documents.
                 I stated I would try and add as many missing documents as I
                 could but was unsure of what documents were missing as so
                 much had been handed to the court and solicitors. The
                 Appellant mother asked the Judge if The Appellant would
                 need to attend Court on the
                 14/10/2016
                 as it was due to only being regarding the missing documents
                 The Appellant mother felt The Appellant did not need to be
                 there the Judge agreed to this. On the
                 14 October 2016
                 Mr A Cordell and I attended Court on this date, the solicitors
                 did not turn up, The Appellant mother had a list of
                 documents that she had made up and indexed that needed to
                 be added to The Appellant’s bundle which she passed to the
                 Judge.
                 She stated to the Judge that she could not be sure if there
                 were still documents missing. She also stated that she had
                 tried to call Miss Ward and had no reply.  The Judge was
                 very upset that the solicitors had not turned up. A letter had
                 been sent by the solicitors Michael Carroll and co; the Judge
