Yeh im telling you as it is - honest guv!
Its a bit of another legal red tape i found out from the court enforcement office, i was soooo fuming on the phone because ok £38 may not be a lot but its still not the point i was awarded it so i should of got it all! They spent ages chasing him for the measely £12 he paid but as soon as he got back to prison the wouldnt chase him for it again, but not for non payment & not the original crime of a section 18 but for harrassment of me aka the victim too which he later carried out after being let out.
Having fought through the courts for justice as far as i can see it is all for the defendant & not the victim in any case....just my opinion based on my experiences.
