Dear Greg

I absolutely appreciate the seriousness of the situation. My husband is only just recovering from the virus after a very worrying couple of weeks.

I am not sending anyone to police stations. At Highbury Corner and Thames, there is no facility for remote attendance.

I was one of the first to refuse to attend court even before the lockdown and as a result, my client was sentenced in my absence despite the matter being listed only to re-fix a trial date.

Kind regards,

Emma Clements
