Hi,
I recently had a preliminary hearing, in which a large part of my claim was thrown out, so to speak. I am thinking of appealing the decision, just to make life harder for the respondent, however the thought came to me that they might not have to do very much, or anything at all if I were to appeal, as it would be the judge's decision I was appealing against.
Is this true, would the respondent have to prepare anything at all for an appeal court hearing? I don't want to just annoy the judge that's hearing the case for the sake of it, but I do intend to be a pain in the arse to the respondent.
