RDH in Court- Day 2

 
See here for essential background: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2024/02/rdh-court-verdict.html.
Richard D Hall has had another court hearing. This time it was online using Microsoft Teams. Use of online court proceedings began in the pandemic lockdown, but still sometimes happen today for shorter hearings. I had to download and install the application, which I've never used before, and then join the meeting in a similar way to Zoom or Skype. My microphone and camera were disabled throughout. The only active members of the meeting were Richard, the judge Master Davison and the claimants' barrister Mr Price. I was one of about a hundred and twenty spectators. This hearing was a case conference to discuss more issues before the main trial. Richard asked permission to appeal against the ruling. He said that there was no reason to assume that the staged hypothesis about the Manchester Arena event was implausible. History acknowledges that false flag and fake terrorist incidents have happened many times in the past and that it is a standard tactic of state actors. Richard has gathered a lot of evidence to demonstrate that it is still being used in the present day. He also felt that the judiciary seems to lack an awareness of this reality. The judge refused because he said it was simply rearguing the issue over which he has already made a ruling. Richard responded by saying that this case has a political ulterior motive; something that is very obvious, I might add. The claimants have already expressed their intention to make this case a common law precedent which will then change the outcome of future lawsuits like this one. They have a powerful ally in Andy Burnham, the Mayor of Manchester. If it turns out that a civil court was exploited in this way then the ruling could be overturned because it is an abuse of the courts. Master Davison refused to comment because it would constitute him giving Richard legal advice which judges are not supposed to do. Richard would have to make those points to the judge hearing the appeal. Richard also is being charged for the costs of the preliminary hearing which ruled against him. After some discussion the judge ordered him to pay £21,000 before the pre-trial hearing. Richard is going to dispute that of course; it's a vast amount and is another part of the attempt to bankrupt him. He says that the documents outlining the costs were not emailed to him. At the moment, they plan to have the main trial in July.
 
Richard also mentioned that he is launching a counterclaim against the claimants via OfCom because of an interview Martin Hibbert gave to Good Morning Britain in which he used threatening language; even the mainstream media hosts had to warn him about it. He also made false allegations against Richard, see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOaWwMpiAVc. Richard has published a video setting the record straight, see: https://www.richplanet.net/richp_genre.php?ref=311&part=1. Richard can appeal against the ruling even without Master Davison's permission. There is going to be another pre-trial hearing at some point, probably in May. Richard has made the point that the purpose of his research is the detection and prevention of crime. This is a difficult point for the court to argue against and I could tell that the judge and Mr Price were having a great deal of trouble doing so. The paused a lot, and ummed and ahed. Once again, Richard won the day hands down. As I said in my report on day one, winning a moral victory is not enough to prevail in our establishment legal system, in fact it is very often a handicap; but times they are a-changin'; it is becoming increasingly obvious in so many areas of life. The government's machinations are backfiring more and more. What will happen at the main trial? Well, firstly a jury will be appointed and that could well end up with them overruling the preliminary decisions and defying the judge's recommendations. This happened in the trial of John Anthony Hill, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2011/05/day-in-court.html. It will also become a news story that will be used as another attempt to smear Richard's character, "The Disaster Troll Finally Goes to Court!" etc, that will have the side effect of generating a lot of publicity for Richard and his website. As it is, millions of people who had never heard the name Richard D Hall now know about him and any with curious minds will find Richplanet.net and take a look for themselves. If whoever is behind this absurd show trial has any sense they will instruct the claimants to drop it. It was heartening to see so many people on the guest list in the call; I recognized a few of their names and spoke to one of them on the phone afterwards. When Richard announced his intentions for the next hearing, somebody posted in the public live chat: "Good luck, Richard!" I posted underneath: "Amen!" and immediately the live chat was disabled. However, none of these suppression techniques are working anymore. The tide has turned and this attack against Richard may well turn out to be the final high-water mark.
