Just a quick update. I have been informed by the Court that James Billingham has emailed them without copying me in. This is usually against the rules. I have requested the document. The mail has been referred to a judge to consider whether the claim is suitable for the online system.

Likely outcomes are –

• nothing the claim will continue
• transfer
• strike out as unsuitable for the online system with a direction it may be re-issued via the old-fashioned paper system

Either way he will only be delaying matters. (This only applies to my County Court claim not the ICO investigation).
