The Dame has just returned from a summer cruise aboard her fabulous steam yacht.
She tried to invite Mr Mason but unkind Mr Justice Rajah had ordered the retention of Mr Mason's passport. Can't think why!
In her absence, she found that Dylan and Mason had been furiously emailing Google claiming that the true and un-AI-tainted version of Dylan breached his copyright. As a result, Google removed the blog.
Why is Dylan so keen to hide his looks?
That he is no 'looker' should not be grounds for censoring a blog acting in the public interest.
Mr Justice Rajah is one of the most skilled of Chancery silks. His summing up of the case is masterful.

One should not refer to a High Court Judge, a puisine judge, (pronounced pewny) as "Judge Rajah."
ReplyDeleteMr Justice Rajah, or Rajah.J. orThe Honourable Mr Justice Rajah is correct.
Thank you so much. The change is made. No doubt we will see Rajah as a Supreme Court judge afore long. Brilliant, incisive mind.
ReplyDeleteI have just read what the judge had to say. I wonder what the sentencing will entail?
ReplyDeleteDylan, Mason and Antrobus are facing extremely serious charges. The judge has made very clear that he is angry. This trio should focus their efforts on an effective defence rather than messing around with this excellent blog.
ReplyDeleteIt is not the role of a judge to be “angry”. It is his role to look decisively at the facts and decide an appropriate sentence. If he cannot do so without any personal prejudice or emotion against the defendants then he should not be on the case.
DeleteRajah J is not the first judge to get stroppy when dealing with a case in court.
DeleteIt is quite erroneous to suggest that an English Judge has to be impartial and without personal or emotional bias.
Lord Denning MR defined the role of the English Judge in a different way to 12.40 above.
........The English Judge acts as an umpire by ensuring that Counsel conduct themselves according to the rules. He does not have to be unbiased, unemotional or without opinion, nor does he conduct an inquiry on behalf of society at large which is the case in continental jurisdictions.
I think the good Mr Justice Rajah has got more than a slap on the wrist or caned arse lined for this appalling shower. They can expect the full force of a judicial shafting.
ReplyDeleteCircuit Judges are referred to as "Judge X."
Socially, a Puisine Judge or above is referred to as
"Sir X" or "Dame. X "
So we have Sir Easson Rajah KC.,
and
Dame Sue Carr, Lady Chief Justice.
14:11 can you proffer a view on what Mr Justice Rajah is getting to when he noted “civil contempt proceedings are quasi-criminal in nature” and contempt must be proved “to the criminal standard”.
ReplyDeleteHe ruled he was satisfied “beyond reasonable doubt” that Mason and Antrobus had breached the freezing orders.
Contempt of Court may be criminal or civil. The criminal standard of proof is "beyond reasonable doubt" and this criminal standard of proof applies to contempt of court in civil proceedings. As Mr Justice Rajah says, "civil contempt proceedings are quasi judicial" and the criminal standard of proof, beyond reasonable doubt applies. I think that is about the size of it.
ReplyDeleteI see that Messrs Shaw and Hatfield are managing
ReplyDeleteBaldwins. Both are paid by Mason and Dylan's company
The article published in the Travel Weekly ends with a statement from Marks and Shaw. This is without doubt a falsehood, and either they agreed complicit in the fraudulent and contempt cases, or they are puppets.
ReplyDeleteI note that Dylan and Mason are attempting to bury the news by distributing huge numbers of irrelevant articles with keywords to push the true story down the rankings.
I have no doubt they will place Baldwins into administration before the 13th January (the Barclays case begins on the . Until then, each of the individual businesses need to see and experience the full force of the Dame's reach
