My neighbour started a case in April-and requested acces sonto my property for maintenance. He was told to file an amended particulars of Claim -which he did in June (9 weeks later although the guideleines state 14 days), I then filed my defence documents and the case was listed for a directions heairng in September. I underwent surgery in May and I am waiting for furtehr surgery due to complications and so my GP sent in a medical statement. I filed an N244 and the case was adjourned. The case has been rescheduled for this Friday despite my GP sending in a furtehr medical statement stating that I am not fit to engage in ahearing until I have undergone further surgery. The court sent a letter insising that I arrange for a telephone conf call and pay the costs. I have written back to the court saying I am not in a financial situation to pay £65.00 -as I am only on SSP -having been off work since April, and I do not have the claimants phone number to arrange the eharing. The court have now replied saying that I must attend or must arrange the hearing -despite my GP sending in a statement informing them I am waiting urgent surgery -(to have stitches removed which have failed to dissolve from my previous operation)-resulting in a local anaeasethic and having the wound reopened again-I saw the conusltant five weeks ago and was told I will receive a phone call in a few weeks as it will be done urgently. Can someone please assist me. The letter form the court jsut received that I had previously said I had problems with getting to the court -hence the reason to suggest a phone hearing -which I have never mentioned having problems -it stems from my GP. I am in severe abdominal pain, I am on anti-depressants, maximum painkiller -including morphine and dont know what to do-can the judge insist despite medical statements. I have suffered harassment from this neighbour for 6yrs-the police have been out numerous times to arrest me, fortunately my cctv have proved evidence and no action has ever been taken. The last vsiist was from the police as approx 6 pieces of shredded paper blew into next doors garden when the shredder was emptied-and the police replied. The neighbours are both alcoholics and last weekend has been awful, him shouting and calling me various names which I wont post on here -all because I had been outside at 6.40pm-to go to my freezer and my security light came on-he was going bed and stating that I was standing watching him. PLEASE hope someone can help me -I have limited time, ill health and being forced to attend court when I cannot due to the severity of my pains in my abdomen. Please help me someone -I am at the end of my tether and the neighbours are getting everything they want , so fed up and the fact I am ill and still ecxpected to pay costs -struggling to keep a roof over my ehad as it is -as I live on my own in a semi cottage. Appreciate the time taken for anybody who knows any rules or guidelines on what i should do.
