Whatever they decide on the day.
It will require another Court Hearing. And another jurisdiction claim, etc. If you stand your ground and have friends to help you it could go either way ... large to set example to them ... or small in order to stop you making a fuss/admitting they have no real right to do it.
It depends on how STUPID they are.
You will get the chance to argue the toss ... PROVIDED THAT YOU STAND YOUR GROUND AND ... IF THEY TALK OVER YOU ... DON'T SHUT UP ... but talk back at them ... point by point ... issue by issue. Prove this ... prove that ... etc. Local Newspaper Reporter present would help.
Pointing out that it will all be posted on this website will help.They WILL send you to prison (they can't afford not to) .... but they might limit the damage to a week or so .. IF YOU POINT OUT HOW MUCH IT IS ALL GONNA COST THEM FOR £285 ... it will cost AT THE VERY LEAST £2,500 OF TAXPAYERS MONEY -
PER WEEK - TO KEEP YOU INCARCERATED. Shove that up their collective arses BEFORE THEY PASS SENTENCE!
On the other hand, IF YOU DO IT RIGHT, you may just get the opportunity to walk out home & free. It could be an idea to make your points and say
"So ... case dismissed, then!" ... and start to walk out. I would ... and see how far I got.If you had done it right, then could easily shrug and let you carry on walking. The element of surprise is on your side. This doesn't happen very often to them, you can be sure of that.
If they've let you walk out ... bearing in mind there will be a Policyman in Court ... then THEY ARE FUCKED. TOTALLY. THEY HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO LEG TO STAND ON
AT ALL.
You have to remember ... THEY CAN'T DO THIS AS "LIABLE PERSON IN ABSENTIA" ... otherwise they would be putting something called "in absentia" in jail.IF I HAD KNOWN, IN 1992, WHAT I KNOW NOW ... I WOULD HAVE WIPED THE FLOOR WITH THEM.
