Evidently NOT ! I am still too afraid to actually live in the flat.
Here I am, having survived the Xmess and still waiting to hear the “Decision” regarding my Housing Benefit payments. This decision will have a bearing on the success or not of my landlord who is seeking Repossession of my home, because of rent arrears.
I will fill in the gap since I last updates the Case Study. April 2025 was busy as my visit to the flat garnered a new Injunction with Power of Arrest for ASB. The Hearing was scheduled for October 2025 so I spent most of the year preparing my defence, researching the legal issues and trying to find a representative for court.
April also saw my landlord notify the Housing Benefit Office that I do not live at my home and at the same time serving the Injunction papers which were hand delivered at my home. The rest of the year I spent avoiding my home except when it was essential, in order to collect mail, do some printing and rack the elderflower wine.
In October the Judge gave warnings to Together Housing Association via their legal counsel. He also gave them opportunity to withdraw the case against me before starting the Hearing. In the first instance, they did not have any actual evidence of Anti Social Behaviour, or intent. He said that if they decided to continue with the Case then the Hearing would be unlawful. He explained to their legal representative that I as Defendant would probably wish to cross examine the Claimants witnesses. However he pointed out that as a litigant in person I would not be allowed to do so, because the Injunction forbids confronting the witnesses personally. As I was a Litigant in Person who is not legally represented the Hearing would not be able to go ahead without it being unlawful.
The Judge made a point of the fact that the evidence they were relying on was not evidence of Anti Social Behaviour as it was an account of a private conversation in the defendant’s own home. The defendant may wish to challenge the witnesses statement regarding the facts.
I did manage to do some administration, nine letters cost around £30 postage.
The letters were as follows,
Two letters to the Information Commissioner’s Office.
- One reporting Together Housing Association for taking legal action against me when they had no evidence beyond hearsay. This includes the ASB Case Officer stating in her witness statement, “The defendant’s behaviour is becoming extreme”. This opinion was formed without any communication with me or any enquiry with the police. The statement has been made with extreme prejudice and now forms part of my housing record, even though there was no case for, or evidence of anti social behaviour.
- The other letter, reporting the Solicitors Regulatory Authority for endorsing Ward Hadaway’s breaches of the Data Protection Act. Also reporting them for condoning Ward Hadaway’s gross malfeasance. Ie; hiding my evidence from the court and, when responding to the Regulator’s enquiry, having the audacity to state quite incorrectly, that “it doesn’t matter”.
How arrogant is this ? Not as arrogant as requesting their costs be paid after their case was withdrawn and the Judge awarding them their costs from the public purse ! It really does raise a lot of questions about the actual day to day practices of “Gaming” the Civil and Families Division of the HM Courts.
- Of course letter number three went to the Solicitors Regulatory Authority
- Letter number four went to Ward Hadaway.
- Letter five went to the CEO of Together Housing Association Ltd, making a formal complaint about ASB Officers handling of the cases, and notifying them of my letters to the Regulator of Social Housing, the ICO and the SRA.
- Letter six went to the Housing Ombudsman’s Service, making another formal complaint regarding the extreme bias of ASB Officers failing to follow the correct procedures when dealings with tenants.
- Letter seven to the Social Housing Regulator, reporting the methods Together Housing are using to harass vulnerable tenants and their attempts to game the Courts and pervert the legal process.
- Letter eight to the Housing Benefit Team, notifying them of my concerns regarding Together Housing for reporting me as not living at the address, whilst taking out an Injunction against me, at that address.
- Letter nine went to the Homeless Prevention Team, again outlining the bullying, deceptions and maladministration at Together Housing Association Ltd
Housing Benefit Payment 2026
Today I have received written acknowledgement from Together Housing that my Housing Benefit is back in payment. The arrears has been paid in full and future payments will cover the whole of the rent and the community Charge.
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2026.
Now I am waiting for a new social worker who will hopefully, pick up on the previous social worker’s suggestions.
- That there should be a Case Review with those Managers and Officers responsible for this situation. Hoping to discover which Officers made the decisions and their motives for those decisions.
- That I need support with my administration
- Unable to remember what this is at the moment
Stalking and Harassment ?
During a video link interview with a police officer, I was told that the police will not be persuing the case against either the tenant at No.9, or against my landlord.
I often ask myself, Is this really happening ?
Or, am I simply being paranoid - on top of the ADHD and possible PTSD ? Friends remind me that, just because you are paranoid, does not mean to say that “they” are not after you.”
