Hi just asking this question as it is running around my head. This happen back into 2018.
The Plaintiff made allegations of both civil and criminal harassment against me. She claimed that she felt harassed because I sent her a message on the 24th March 2018, another on the 4th May 2018 and while acting as a Litigant in Person, a Letter before claim dated 4th June 2018. She made a statement to the police on the 11th June 2018 and presented an affidavit to the County Court on the 18th June 2018.
Now taken as is, the statement and affidavit met the legal requirement for her harassment claim, however she failed to mention some very relevant matters. She failed to mention that she telephoned me 28 times during the period of alleged harassment, while I only phoned her once during this period. In these calls we discussed the alleged harassing messages and other matters. She also failed to mention to the police or the court, that we engaged in a sexualised video chat and telephone call during the alleged harassing period, both of which were instigated by her.
I was charged with criminal harassment but the case was withdrawn against me, on the morning of the hearing, when I presented the prosecution, with recordings and transcripts of the 28 calls. My accuser withdrew her Legal Aid Funded civil case against me
My question is, if my accuser omitted to mention in her Legal Aid application, the 28 telephone calls, or the fact that she masturbated over FB and the telephone to me, during the period of alleged harassment, would this be considered lying by omission or fraud in anyway? Do legal aid mind if you withhold relevant evidence from them?
