Falsely accused of rape by my wife of 12 weeks

[just married]

Thanks, Faith.

I've just re-read the excellent post 'You've been Falsely Accused.... Whar Happens Now.' and I am learning to accept the waiting.
I do have a copy of the brief 'Authority' form I signed... That's it reproduced it in it's entirety (with names and address instead of the dots), on my previous post...

[Faith]

If that's all it says then it doesn't loom like you've signed yourself into a contract post charge...just for representation at the police station.

While it says that they authorise the release of case papers, as RF says, you won't have any yet. All that will currently exists are interview transcripts and potentially one or two statements, none of which the police will release pre charge.

I don't think it's too ominous a contract....
... feeling much better having discussed these issues.....
thank you.

Not yet. If it is who I think it is then that could be forthcoming should you be charged. If you use the search box on the front of this forum you might find he has been referred to before on this forum - 6 + posts down.....

Thanks, Rights Fighter.
I'm unable to privately message you.
I have now read the threads.
I'm getting concerned, particularly now, if, upon being charged, case papers are handed over to someone other than me, and I have no access to them, or control over what happens..

[Faith]

From the wording of that contract, it would seem that for the moment you haven't agreed to anything post charge.
If you remain unsure, I'd advise you not to sign anything else until you reach a stage where you are comfortable.

You are unable to PM me as some people used to take the pi*s and PM me (and email me so I stopped that too) instead of posting on the forum.

I am really busy most of the time with pre-trial and appeal work and I had to take the decision to stop the many random communications I was getting.

Faith will help you with this and if there are any serious problems he can contact me direct.

One family I recently helped with regard to the person I think we are talking about was being chased for further payments (£K's). They led me to believe that they had never received receipts or itemised invoices and had no idea what they were actually paying for. I suggested to them that they request these items before paying another penny.

The agent then apparently told them he would put a charge on the client's house. I advised them (after talking to a solicitor friend of mine who deals with such matters) that the client has a right to a defence and that defence would obviously be that they had no idea where their money was going because according to them, they never had anything in writing that spelled that out.

So far the family have not heard anything since then. Obviously I am repeating what the family told me so I do not know 101% that this is true, but what they have said tends to mirror what others have said over the last few years.

The agent I think you are talking about spent several months attempting to bully me into removing posts from this forum about him. As I am not a moderator or Admin I cannot do that in any event. I was threatened with having papers served on me - he even asked for my address so he could do that! He then threatened to turn up at the Court of Appeal in London so he could serve me with 'papers'.

As what I post is in the genuine belief that what other ex-clients of his have told me, and that it is out of genuine concern for the public that I mention these experiences others have had, and it is not done with malice or intention of deliberately depriving him of work for reasons of malice, then he has no case against me. I have to say that when I first met him I was very impressed with his work and apparent knowledge, it was only when complaints started coming in that I changed my view.

Thanks, RF.
I have pm'd Faith, and mailed Mr. H Jervis, asking his opinion.

Correspondence arrived today from Rustem Guardian. I'm not going to be signing anything until I've spoken to a few other people, so that won't be until well into next week.
Went to see charming GP this morning, and will be referred for counselling. It does seem to be thereputic to talk.
Alone times, even on the street, have the question forming in my mind, how did such love turn to such hate.

[Rights Fighter]

Yes - please do explore all options before going with the first one you come across. Some sols who charge privately cost a hell of a lot less than others.

You can contact me via Faith if necessary (this does not mean that other members can pester Faith with messages for me).

Just started yesterday, a bullet pointed one or two page document to present to a potential sol, assembled from my 25 rambling pages.

I've lost weight, and am now gaining weight. Sleeping, getting to sleep, or staying asleep is a problem. Unfortunately, I'm a smoker, so am closer now to the constant teasing of good health caused by too many fags. Horrible reality/fantasy nightmares, and waking up in shock, though not for the past few days.

Yesterday was a good day. Went to the seaside with a friend. Exorcising old haunts, but possibly also reviving relevant memories.

I'm contemplating just using the duty solicitor, if that's possible, should I be further questioned of charged on my return to the police station.

[Faith]

Nothing especially wrong with using the duty solicitor to attend the police station with you. Unless you are to be requestioned...then the solicitor is only there so the police toe the line and follow procedure.

As your bail date approaches get whichever solicitor you're taking with you to contact the police and try and find out what is going to happen on your bail date.

[Rights Fighter]

Also remember hat you do not have to pay for a duty sol - you may well have to pay for the private solicitor you mentioned, who you were introduced to, which is completely unnecessary at this point.

Thanks, Faith.

In the first few days after my arrest, I read up on CICA claims, and immediately thought, with the sums I read about as reward for making an allegation, that alone would be enough incentive. My legal agent though, dismissed this. I'll perhaps get back to him on that.

I have tended to avoid things that are difficult, so I need to be more proactive....

For someone those money are nothing. But for someone ealse those money are like 20 years of working. Where she is come frome?
That's my question

Please don't as that might start racking up some costs. Plus if he dismissed the idea that money is an incentive to falsely accuse somebody then he clearly has no idea what he is talking about. Many people will do anything for money.....
