hi again
sorry in advance as I forget many things Actually I been attested under a false allegation but released by the police without any charge .I did have recorder of my phone through the time. police listned to it .a little bit background of this incident is my ex moved out in feb and she was comming in and out but children were not allowed so one day I changed the locks because I was very unsecured .she wanted to enter into the property when she couldn't then she called the police . Police asked me if I could open the door but I said I will only do so if she comes with an independent witness .she came along with one of the neighbour .As I opend the door she started to blaim me as I hit her .as I said the recorder was on .Police listened to it but I was surprised at the time that neighbour didn't came forward to give her statement but any how I got rid of it because of that recorder .Afterwards I spoke to the neighbour and she provide me with a written statement .At that time she also told me that my ex and her brother tried to get false statement for police which she denied . as It's going to be ffc judge has called her and I have written a letter to her to attend the court but I got very strange response by her that I lied to her and should not use her statement in the court.As I don't live there any more i think she is scared but the good thing is she never disputed her statement .my question is that shall I try to serve her witness summons .I think it will help the case if she gona say my ex was asking her to give false evidence isn't it? I don't understand why she is doing that and why I have to get her statement for if not using in court.so if I have to serve the summons can someone tell what's the way to do it .Secondly what shall I do regarding that recorded audio I have emailed the court to get the advice but no answer .Lastly if I have to serve a summon how much time should it be before hearing.i can't pay you for your valuable opinions but wish you a very happy life.
regards

Hi, I'm not sure what you are trying to avoid in court, so can you clarify so we can advise?

With regards to the recording, it is up to the judge whether to allow it, but I would transcribe it out and then you can prevent this to the court, but keep the recording in any case.

I'm not sure what the position is with regards a witness refusing to give a statement to the court, I would have a word with the court to see what they suggest is the next step if she refuses to give a statement.

Hi There,
.
I agree with actd, I would speak with the courts, and see what they suggest, it could be that they feel the written statement is enough, or they may make the decision to call the neighbour as a witness.

thanks for replies at the post.The court has called her on 2nd hearing but she is refusing to go to court .All she is saying that this statement wasn't for court which is ununderstandable she has given me the statement with title to whom it may concern and signed also .My question is shall I serve her summons if I have to how many days before the hearing she should receive them?
regards

Again, I would speak to the court - they may serve the summons directly to her if necessary, but they are the best people to tell your the process (they can't give legal advice though, so don't ask them for that).
