      @@BlackBeltBarrister For a search warrant to be issued, sufficient evidence for the warrant has to be put forward.
      TV goons are employees of a private company that is not part of the legal system and has as much right to get a search warrant or enter a property as any member of the public.
      If what you are saying is true that would mean
      1) I could get a search warrant for a neighbors house because I have reason to believe they have hacked my wifi password or stolen Fido my dog and I could personally carry out the search.
      2) A TV goon would have had to have potentially broken laws ie trespass, voyeurism or filming on private property without consent to gain evidence in order to get a search warrant, which would make that evidence inadmissible and the Goon liable.

    Talking of contracts. A few years ago I worked for a well known energy and engineering company. With in the first month I was sent up to a project that they were principle contractor in the east of England that was way way behind schedule and a client who was within their rights to be angry at the debacle they had caused.
    The project manager (who had also been parachuted in) and I arranged face to face meetings with the sub contractors. We found out very quickly that there was no written contracts and agreements had been verbal.
    It shocked me a company of that size would operate in such a manner.

    I think in reality it's easier than you say to have a judgement set aside. I've mentioned before our case against Northamptonshire Healthcare Foundation Trust that we won this year. There were many facets to it, so we submitted a separate claim for each. The first seven were ignored, NHFT got seven default judgements and it was only when we sent the baliffs in that they realised what was going on! Their barrister was Jennifer Thelen of 39 Essex Chambers and all she had to say was that they considered they had a reasonable defence for one case and all seven were struck out! Of course they went on to lose two of these cases, but what amazed me was that the court quite happily accepted their excuse that at least 14 court letters were not sent, despite us receiving every one and the summons being in the name of the NHFT chief executive with the Trust's address. I am still convinced that someone at NHFT has a desk full of letters they have not passed on!

    Regarding recalling money. I’ve known a few people have issues where they have ordered something for delivery, had a notification from the seller of delivery but the items have not arrived. They lodge a complaint with the seller for refund or replacement of the missing goods. The seller refuses on grounds that they have had notification from the delivery company of delivery, with photograph. When they eventually got ahold of the photograph it has clearly shown a different location. When they tried to recall the money they were told that as there was proof of delivery they could not and would have to try to retrieve the goods, not always feasible when all you have to go on is a photo of a letterbox.

    One unhappy truth about having a formal contract drawn up, for building work especially, is the time factor. Using a law fir m to do this is the sensible route, but there’s no guarantee this will happen in the time frame you desire: weather conditions, the time of year snd not least, the number of jobs the contractor has “ lined up” in addition to yours. In a well populated area/region you might just find a law firm prepared to draw up a contract at relatively short notice, but the builder is not going to wait forever. In a low density population such as that in which I live jobbing builders are “thick on the ground” and predominantly work from home. Established firms have work loads stretching as much as 12 months ahead and tend to be very expensive, but even they rely on their reputation than a formal contract. You may be relying on an extension to your mortgage to pay for the work but that too can often come with time constraints. In practice, where we live most people rely on the honesty and recommendations from others and do without the formal contract just to be sure to get the job done at an affordable price and within the time frame that best suits you.

      The limitation period for defamation is one year.
      And a general problem with complaints to professional bodies or regulators is they attract at least qualified privilege; and quite often the courts treat as if it was absolute privilege anyway. But even if qualified p, you have to show malice, and malice in law isn't quite the same as the colloquial sense. it's a recklessness as to whether the statement is true or not. But if someone genuinely believes the statement is true then even if they're motivated by malice in the everyday sense, that won't be malice in the defamation sense.

    Quite informative for the lay folk, Dan ) I would, however, elaborate further on the “fundamental dishonesty” pleading in civil cases, since one has to be very careful to avoid such a finding in the civil courts, given that a finding like this has both adverse civil costs ramifications (costs on indemnity basis, meaning that the loser pays whatever the winner claims) AND criminal implications (many Circuit Judges and HC Judges have been known to pass the case files to CPS /DPP for a criminal investigation). Never even think of messing with insurers.

    With respect to civil fraud and ending up on the CIFAS database, many of the resultant constraints seem like a perfect way to push a fraudster toward further crime. I'm not for one minute suggesting the law should go lightly in terms of punishment, but surely it would be better that they have a monitored and controlled bank account rather than no bank account at all?

    Hi Dan, what is the bare minimum for an acceptable contract? A sound recording of you and them setting out the terms and agreeing? A video recording? Written on paper with their signature? How do you verify that the signature is theirs when they say it isn't?

    • @KieranWoonton
      @KieranWoonton 2 года назад +4

      Your agreement is the contract, a written document is evidence of what the contract terms were. Both a sound recording and a written contract would serve the same purpose.
      With the signature, once again it is an evidential concern. Their signature can be cross-referenced against their signature on other documents. Nothing is ever iron-cast though, I suppose a good liar can get away with anything.
      I would suggest that, in addition to a written contract, you can take a picture of it and send it to the other person by text or email at the time of agreement. That way, you both have a copy which is electronically time-stamped and acknowledged by you both as being binding.

      @@oldtimefarmboy617 That's simply untrue. Contracts do not require both parties being present. I'm not sure where you got that information but I've dealt with literally thousands of contracts during my 24 year legal career, and I've never seen one stricken or rendered invalid because the parties signed it at different times. That's simply not a rule. There could be certain contracts that require simultaneous signatures, but that would be on a document by document basis, and is not a set in stone rule in contracts law in the United States. Many contracts are e-signed now, which is totally valid, and the parties do not need to be in the same room together at any point. Also, the parties watching each other sign is not a rule and has never been, as far as I know. Sometimes contracts require witnesses, but the parties can't attest to the other party signing a document, so that would never be required. Occasionally businesses have certain ways they do things, but that doesn't amount to contract laws or requirements.

  • @StephenBoothUK
    @StephenBoothUK 2 года назад

    Regarding #2, I have always been told that if you send someone a detailed description of what is agreed and they don’t challenge that within a reasonable time then that is a binding contract. For example you agree with a builder that they will build a conservatory in your house during a certain period for a certain amount so you email them “To confirm, you have agreed to build a conservatory at house at [address] as per attached measurements and designs. Works will start no later than [date] and finish no later than [date], once started works will be continuous and in event of any breaks you will ensure that temporary measures are in place to ensure the security of my property and that no damage will occur. Total cost is estimated at [sum] and you will not allow costs to exceed [sum] without my permission. Initial payment shall be [sum] not more than 7 days before you commence work and [sum] when initial grounds works are complete, final payment of all outstanding monies will be made within 1 week of the work being completed to my satisfaction.” If they don’t object before the initial payment is made then they can be deemed to have agreed. A lot of IT supply contracts where I work are actioned on a similar basis.

    Simple question for you Dan; what constitutes a dangerous letterbox? In support of my Son's new business business venture, I have been delivering sales leaflets to houses in the immediate vicinity. I appreciate that I am on "their land" uninvited and I am supplying them with what some might see as "junk mail". However, I have been appalled at the lack of safety concerning the behaviour of some letterboxes. The problem is significantly worse with uVPC doors and porches. Sometimes I find the inner secondary flap is controlled by a strong spring that results in a "bite" that a crocodile would be proud of. Equally, the installation of the letterbox has resulted in jagged sharp features in it's interior that impacts that skin on the hand. I am not particularly concerned about myself as my association with this activity is limited. But, there are people that deliver leaflets for a living and (of course) there are the Post Office workers themselves. Observations?

    Taking the wrap for someone could be beneficial. For example, your driver (could be your mum) could have 6 penalty points and is facing another 6. If you don't have a car you might as well take the wrap otherwise your driver will be disqualified and both of you will end up worse. It probably happens more often than you think but you only hear about it if they get caught so there's no way of telling how successful it is
