Claim
Under the DDA in Brighton County Court by Colin Bennett Against
Brighton & Hove City Council
This dossier is based on a post to my Blog,
which first appeared on 30 September 2005. I have now transferred what
was on the Blog to this page as I was regularly adding to these
Documents.
You will see that this Dossier consists of the paperwork
created so far in my DDA claim against Brighton & Hove City
Council. The physical paperwork is in three mini files called,
respectively: Initial mini-file, Supplementary mini-file and
Continuation mini-file.
The claim number for this case is 5BN03502.
