I have had problems especially when bail is granted in extradition cases subject to a cash security – I think the problem lies at the prison. I advised one client recently to seek civil redress because he was held over the weekend when the conditions were satisfied and the Court had confirmed it to Wandsworth by 4pm on the Friday.

I think this is becoming an issue with Wimbledon MC and Wandsworth. I got bail for a guy after a videolink a few weeks ago. It was a Friday but there was still enough time to release him that day and they didn’t do it until Monday or Tuesday after family contacted us and we had made lots of phone calls to find out what was going on.

Dear Stephen

Yes a civil protocol letter (before action) to both the court centres (for MOJ) and the prison service.

Given two days unlawful detention there is a claim and that will only increase with delay.

Subject: Bail granted, but unlawfully detained

We have a client who was granted bail at Wimbledon MC on Tuesday 5th March, but he is still being unlawfully detained at HMP Wandsworth.

Endless phone calls and emails to both establishments have led nowhere. Chaos reigns because the court admin is now divided between four different court centres. Nobody will take responsibility.

Any suggestions?
