Re: An update on my court case.
i realy do hope you get your compensation though
About five years ago, i was driving through the high street and my car windscreen got broken by an idiot who was drunk throwing a beer bottle. reviewing the video tape i realised it was not deliberate. Anyway, the CCTV got him and he was arrested. In court i was awarded £200 compensation but as he was on benefits, £1.00 a week.
He failed to make payments and was sent to jail for two weeks. As he had been sent to jail, the compensation was classed as "spent" as he served time and i was then advised to do a civil claim to someone who is on benefit. So it was me out of my own pocket who paid for the windscreen
Justice, i think not
