My son is in the process of having to go to court due to these false allegations. Even the solicitor says he has no idea why the CPS have made the charges! However now its the case of filling out the forms to claim legal aid! The past year he has gone back to colege to retrain as a plumber. To help him we paid the amenities bills at our second property, where he lives. To be able to pay his child maintannce he has a 16 hour a week job.
Well on his ages we were told he qualifies for legal aid. However, he has savings due to not squandering his money when in work, plus money left to him in his grandparents wills!
This all now comes to bite us or the arse as chances are all that money will be claimed to pay for his court case. More than a little maddening as obviously some of this money that he holds is in fact what we paid out not wishing him to use his savings in order to retrain.
Does anyone have any figures of allowed savings so we have some idea of costs?
He has been out and bouht a new suit and his tools, just in case he gets left with nothing after all this fiasco is over.
I get so angry that us and our kids were always told to not waste our money and save, and in so many cases, whethr it be when you lose your job, apply for legal aid etc etc, we would have beeen better being like other people who have earnt and spent every last penny, because they seem to get everything handed to them!
Of course it also doesnt help in the fact that his FA is nothing but a scrounger, having gone from one family to another getting free bed and board, not to mention everything else!!
