I am now allowed by the Court to reveal a limited amount of information about legal action started against me in July 2015.
The private prosecutions brought by Mr Dermot Nottingham against Allied Press and Peter George have been withdrawn by leave of the District Court. Allied Press Limited and Mr George face no further charges. Details of the evidence and submissions filed in the case are suppressed until further notice of the Court.
The court deems the withdrawal of charges to be an acquittal.
Due to matters I am not involved in those are the only details I can disclose about it ‘until further notice of the Court’.
I cannot and will not allow any thing more said about this than I have stated above, so any comments, inadvertently or not, that could put myself or this site at risk will be deleted, whether on this post or anywhere on this site.

/ April 5, 2017I am glad that you no longer have it hanging over you, but don’t imagine that it was ever a starter, whatever it was about.

/ April 5, 2017Pete is a serial winner…just like John Key.
Alan Wilkinson
/ April 5, 2017It was both ridiculous and obnoxious.
Gezza
/ April 5, 2017Good. Pleased to hear it Pete. Look forward to the sequel.
Gezza
/ April 5, 2017Well, not sequel, finale I meant. It’s a long story by the sound of it.

/ April 7, 2017I was alluding to this, on the other thread Pete. Don’t let them get away with it.
Gezza
/ April 7, 2017Rather than alluding to things patu, a direct meme would remove any doubt…
Pete George
/ April 7, 2017I can’t allow speculation or hints or anything that would even accidentally say more than is allowed.
Gezza
/ April 7, 2017No pictures? ☹️
Pete George
/ April 7, 2017No publication.
Gezza
/ April 7, 2017Probably just as well. Some got a bit grubby on a yesterday’s thread. 😕
Pete George
/ April 7, 2017I’m unable to say. I’ve said as much as I legally can at this stage. It’s an odd situation but I was happy to at least be able to say that the charges were eventually dropped, and identify who was responsible.

/ April 7, 2017Deal with it G. We are not allowed to discuss this issue. I don’t like it any more than you do. What I can say, is that when this ‘issue’ finally sees the ‘sunlight’, it may just prove a little hypocracy…
Gezza
/ April 7, 2017Americans are currently living in a hypocracy.
Did you mean hypocrisy? 😀
patupaiarehe
/ April 7, 2017Yes 😀
