Dear Mr McGaghran,
RE: NOTICE OF INTENT TO ENFORCE REPOSSESSION ORDER LODGED BY
RADIUS HOUSING ASSOCIATION
I have received a five-page letter dated August 16th 2021 from the
Enforcement of Judgements Office at Laganside House, Belfast BT1 3LA,
and I have placed a scanned copy of the letter in question at the
following www location:
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/EnforcementOfJudgementsOffice/16August2021/Letter.htm
In connection with the August 16th 2021 letter from the Enforcement of Judgements
Office I wish to make the following points:
1) I have informed Community Mental Health Social Worker Ms Tina
Millar (and others) about the letter via an email I sent to Mr Gerard Forrestal of
the Welcome Organisation last Sunday (August 22nd), and an unedited copy
of it can be viewed at:.
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/GerardForrestal/22August2021/Gmail.pdf
2) In the email at the www location immediately above, I have
expressed the hope that Radius Housing will not make
any application to "enforce the judgement" until I personally have
direct access to professional legal advice and representation of the
kind which recognises and supports human rights law and constitutional
law in meaningful and practical ways: as opposed to doing so by mere
lip-service.
3) As you will already know perhaps, I sent a letter through the
registered post to law-firm
Nelson-Singleton Solicitors on August
2nd 2021 for the purpose of seeking professional legal advice and
representations relating to the overall set of legal, financial, and medical problems I
am now faced with. A scanned copy of the August 2nd 2021 letter in
question can be viewed at:
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/Nelson-SingletonSolicitors-HumanRightsLawFirm-Belfast/2August2021/RegisteredLetter.htm
To date, I have not received any reply of any kind from anybody at
Nelson-Singleton Solicitors to the letter referred to at the www
location immediately above. I am very concerned about this, largely because I
have had the same, or effectively very similar, responses from almost all of
the several lawyers and law firms I have sought help from since Year 2000.
4) In the event that Radius Housing Association is unwilling to delay making
a request to "enforce the judgement" until such time as I have access to
proper legal advice and representation, it seems to me that the only
meaningful option now available to me -- for the purpose of avoiding
eviction -- is for me to reluctantly go along "blindly" (as far as
professional legal advice is concerned) with the proposal set out in
your letter dated June 9th 2021 to Community Mental Health Social Worker
Ms Tina Millar, a scanned copy of which can be viewed at:
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/RadiusHousing/9June2021/ProposalLetter.htm
Please know that the weekly rent and debt-repayment payments you require, plus
my average
weekly electricity bills, when subtracted from the only two sources of
income I now have (i.e. my old age pension payments and my disability
payments), would mean I would be left with approximately just £35 per week to live
on.
It is the case that I could manage (with such a low income) for some time
to come, thanks to the fact that I still have part of the €116,100 I
have borrowed through monthly loans against my home in County Galway from my brother (Gerald Finnerty), and my late half-sister
(Marjorie Dolan), which I could use to supplement the £35 with. However, I have long since felt a
very strong duty to pay back all of the money I have borrowed from my
brother and half-sister as soon as possible. In the case of
my half-sister, who passed away last February, information I have
received from the law firm in County Galway (Patrick Hogan & Co,
Ballinasloe), who are dealing with my half-sisters will, have clearly indicated to me that I
could pay the money I owed to her at the time of her death into her
estate, which is what I would like to do. Also, in connection with
inheritance tax liabilities arising in connection with my half-sister's death, my
brother informed me some months ago that he felt he would not be able to
provide me with any more of the monthly loans I have been receiving from him beyond July 7th 2021, which I
have fully
understood and accepted, and which is what has since happened as a
matter of fact.
Unless I can find legal representation which is willing and able to use
"The right to an Effective Remedy"
referred to in the section immediately below, it seems
highly unlikely to me that I will ever be able to repay the €116,100
Euros loans my brother and late half-sister have provided me with.
5) I have no reason to believe that anybody at the
Enforcement of Judgements Office knows anything about the fact that my
efforts to find proper legal advice and representation have been
continuously
"thwarted at every turn" for well over
20 years now, which appears to me to represent a very serious violation of my legal rights under
international law relating to
Article 8 of the
United Nations Universal
Declaration of Human Rights (
i.e. "The right to an Effective Remedy").
As things stand, from my viewpoint at least, and allowing for the
large amount of factual written information I have provided those involved in my
particular situation over a period of well over 20 years now, it appears to me that
in connection with the violations of my rights in question, Radius Housing, Babingtons
Solicitors (the law firm acting on behalf of Radius Housing), the
presiding District Court judge at Laganside Court who made the decisions
that he, or she, made relating to my case on May 18th 2021, together
with a number of other individuals and public officials and bodies, both in
the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and in the
Republic of Ireland, are behaving in ways which involves complicity. This has long been a source
of huge concern for me which I have so far not found any effective
remedy for. Nor is there any such remedy in sight that I know of at the
present time, which I find very disturbing. It seems to me that those
responsible for the violations in question can continue on indefinitely as
things stand, and do so with complete impunity.
Some good quality evidence relating to the
"thwarted at every turn" legal
problem of mine can be
viewed in the letter dated December 13th
2005 written on my behalf
by Senior Social Worker Mr Gerard Madden to the then Northern Ireland
Justice Minister David Hanson MP at:
http://www.constitutionofireland.com/GerardMadden13December2005/Letter.htm
Allowing for what I have stated above in this section, I am copying this email to the Officer in Charge at the
Enforcement of Judgements Office using an email address which I can only
hope might enable me to communicate with the person in question, for the
purpose of trying to ensure that he, or she, is aware of what I am
inclined to view as a "complicity" problem. The five-page letter I have received from the
Enforcement of Judgements Office contains no email address, and Google
searches I have made to try to find one have failed to produce any useful
results for me.
Please know that the matter of
"Adequate reparations" features
strongly in
"The right to an Effective Remedy",
as
can be seen in the image below which I am attaching to this
email.
Without such reparations I feel I will never be able to pay back
the money I have borrowed from my brother and half-sister.
Also,
"The right to legal and other assistance necessary to
claim remedies" seems to me to be
a crucially important part of Article 8
of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which is
also referred to
in the attached image below.
6)
Allowing for the above, and for the purpose of trying to avoid
eviction, should Radius Housing still feel the need to proceed with the
settlement proposal set out in your letter dated June 9th 2021 to
Community Mental Health Social Worker Ms Tina Millar (referred to under
4 above), please let me know how you would wish me to proceed regarding
the exact payments you would be requiring from me, and the manner in which you
would wish me to have them paid to Radius Housing.
Allowing for the fact that I personally still do not have any direct
access to professional legal advice and representation, please know that I
feel very unsafe about getting involved in conversations of any kind
with others
relating to the overall set of legal, medical and financial difficulties I am at present
struggling with. Consequently,
it would be much appreciated if you could please provide me with a written, signed
reply to this email.
Yours sincerely,
William Finnerty.
