I NEED HELP IN REPLYING. SHOULD I SEND YOU THE REST OF IT?
Sure, please send the rest of the reply from the family court so that I can better understand the full context and assist you in crafting your response.
Any issues you may have with a court order needs to be made as an application to a Judge. The admin staff only draw up the order once a Judge has made this order. Admin staff can not discharge a non molestation order. A Judge can extend an order without a party being present if they believe there is a risk of harm. You was emailed the below "Thank you for your email dated 7th May *. The District Judge requests I write to you the following: '*. A draft order (or orders) and a witness statement in support of your application notice dated 11th April * must be prepared and filed at Court before it is listed. The extension of the duration of the Non-Molestation Order was not an error.
To respond to the family court, you could consider including the following points:
- Acknowledge their response and clarify any misunderstandings.
- Explain your reasons for objecting to the extension of the Non-Molestation Order.
- Provide any additional evidence or documentation supporting your position.
- Ask for a specific course of action or next steps.

Updated medical evidence will also be required as to your fitness to attend any Court hearings.' Your applications were never lost by the court all decisions were made by a Judge .You should go through the Judicial complaints procedure as Kingston County are just decision makers and have no control over any decision the Judge decides to make in any case. The court are not authorised to involve themselves in your case. If you are unhappy with the decision the Judge made Unfortunately as this is a Judicial complaint and the decisions your querying are not in relation to the Court staff but the way Judicial has dealt with your case. Transcripts are not transcribed by Kingston county court this is solely based on the recordings in the court room. The transcribes will transcribers will transcribe what they hear.
Case Rating: *
It seems you're dealing with a complex situation involving court decisions and judicial complaints. To assist you further, I need to ask:
- Have you gathered all the necessary medical evidence to support your claim about your fitness for court hearings?
This will help in drafting a comprehensive response.
In regards to remote hearing Kingston admin staff can not make this decision and this is solely a judicial decision please put a request in for a Judges attention. Unfortunately you can not dispute the transcript with the court this will need to be disputed with the transcript company if you are not satisfied with the transcript from the hearing. If you're unhappy with my response HMCTS operates a three stage complaints handling procedure. If you remain dissatisfied with our reply, you can ask a senior manager."

Let's start by addressing your first complaint. Here's a draft response you can consider:

Dear [Recipient's Name],
Thank you for your response dated [insert date]. I would like to address the following concerns:
*. Court Inaction to My April * Application:

- I request clarification on the current status of this application and the reasons for the delay in addressing it.
Please provide guidance on the next steps or any additional information you may need from me.
Kind regards,

It sounds very frustrating to deal with such administrative issues. To provide better guidance, let me know if you have received any specific instructions from the family court on how to follow up on your complaints or if you need help drafting a more assertive response.
I THINK ESCALATION IS NEEDED - WHAT DO YOU THINK - ITS LIKE THEY KNOW THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH THIS - ITS DISGUSTING AS IT IS A PUBLIC INTEREST MATTER - BUT DUE TO THEM ALL HIDING BEHIND THIS MYTH THAT ALL FAM MATTERS ARE PRIVATE THEY GET AWAY WITH MASSES OF ABUSE.
Case Rating: *
It seems like you're facing significant challenges with the family court's administrative responses. Here are some possible steps to escalate your complaint:
- Judicial Complaint: File a formal complaint against the judge if you believe there's judicial misconduct.
- Senior Manager Review: Follow HMCTS's three-stage complaints procedure and ask for a senior manager review.
- Legal Advice: Consider seeking legal advice for further escalation.
Would you like more details on any of these options?
WHAT ARE THE * STAGES OF THE HMCTS AS THE LISTING OF AN UNECESSARY FINAL HEARING HAS MADE THIS MORE CRITOCAL AND MY ILL HEALTH - DUE TO COURT/OTHERS PROLONGING THE MATTER AND NOT DEALING WITH SERIOUS ISSUES QUICKLY.
Case Rating: *
The three stages of HMCTS complaints handling procedure are:
*. Local Resolution:
- Initial complaint reviewed by the court or tribunal where the issue occurred.
*. Senior Manager Review:
- If dissatisfied with the initial response, request a review by a senior manager.
*. Judicial Appointment and Conduct Ombudsman (JACO):
- Final stage if still unsatisfied, refer the complaint to JACO for independent review.
Would you like details on how to escalate your complaint to a senior manager?
YES, BUT I MAY HAVE DONE THIS ALREADY AS I WROTE TO FAM COURT MANAGER TWICE AFTER I GOT A DISMISSIVE RESPONSE FROM THE PERSON WHO WROTE THIS EMAIL I SENT YOU EARLIER.
Case Rating: *
It seems like you're in a challenging situation. Here’s how you can escalate:
- Senior Manager Review: Since you have already contacted the Family Court Manager twice, you should formally request a review by a senior manager. Clearly state that previous responses have been dismissive and your concerns remain unresolved.
- Judicial Appointment and Conduct Ombudsman (JACO): If the senior manager review does not provide a satisfactory resolution, you can escalate the matter to JACO. They provide an independent review of complaints about judicial conduct.
Would you like help drafting the formal request to the senior manager or additional information on filing a complaint with JACO?

Dear Judicial Appointment and Conduct Ombudsman,
I am writing to formally escalate my complaint regarding the significant delays and administrative issues I have faced with K County Court. Despite numerous attempts to resolve these issues through the court’s complaint handling procedure, my concerns remain unaddressed. Specifically:
*. Inaction on Applications:
- My applications submitted in April and May * have not been processed or placed before a judge, despite multiple follow-ups.
- This delay has caused considerable distress and has prolonged the legal process unnecessarily.
*. Unlawful Extension of the Non-Molestation Order (NMO):
- The original NMO expired at the end of June, but the extension was granted without a hearing and without considering my set-aside application submitted within the required timeframe.
- This extension was granted without proper procedural consideration.
Given these points, I request an independent review of my case and prompt action to address these issues. This matter is of public interest, and it is crucial to ensure fair and transparent legal proceedings.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Kind regards,
[Your Name]
