it was probably mid 80s ..... Knoll House was and still is very child-friendly with an excellent adventure playground for them and plenty of other children of their age ..... beach within easy walking distance too .... sort of Butlins with BMWs!

JG I hope I don't have to show you a letter CC wrote in aug 12 which I can say without any fear of contradiction is the silliest letter a distinguished firm could have ever written and we'll get into that if we need to. What I'm interested at the moment mr Wempen is answers to my questions
Who is P, who is backing it?

Dismissal without prejudice is a legal procedure in which a civil court judge dismisses a case but allows the plaintiff to, if they wish, make needed changes and file the case again.

In common law countries (including the United States, Canada, and Great Britain), civil courts often dismiss cases before a trial is completed - or, specifically, before a trial even begins. In general, there are two ways in which a case can be dismissed. The first of these is known as dismissal without prejudice. Dismissal without prejudice means that the courts will agree to hear - or, in legal parlance, would not be "prejudiced" against - hearing the case again if the plaintiff decides to return to court in the future and demand resolution of the same problem.

In a civil case, both the plaintiff and the defendant may request a dismissal without prejudice, or the judge can issue such an order himself or herself. The plaintiff may request such a dismissal if they have decided not to pursue the case, but wish to keep their options open in the event that they decide to return to the litigation at some future date. In contrast, the judge may issue the order (and it might be requested by the defendant) on the grounds that the plaintiff had committed some relatively minor or technical error in filing and presenting their case. Such an error would make the case unpresentable in its current form, even though it still might succeed given appropriate modifications and re-filing.

The second and separate method of dismissing litigation is with prejudice. A dismissal with prejudice, in contrast to the above, is a decision by the judge that his or her court will dismiss the charge and will refuse to hear that charge in the future. Whereas plaintiffs may prefer a dismissal without prejudice to keep their options open, and judges may issue such an order as a result of a procedural error, a dismissal with prejudice is typically granted when it has become apparent that there is no way the plaintiff can feasibly prove the case they are attempting to present, or when they have committed an infraction so egregious that the litigation must not continue. In certain circumstances and in certain jurisdictions (but particularly in the United States), a dismissal with prejudice entitles the defendant to demand compensation for their legal expenses, whereas a dismissal without prejudice does not.

My limited understanding of what it's all about,is the namong of the backers in open court? If sucessful it could lead to a re-trial,which may put it all back 2 years? I suppose the idea is to pressure GKP's Board into a settlement,rather than prolong this issue?

in my never humble opinion, that the partner(?) at CC has a link to Lemos Bros is an irrelevance ..... that the judge may dismiss the case will be much more interesting ..... it could be that LB and their cronies are not prepared to thrown any more money down the drain, or best result, would be that the judge decides that the Wempens evidence is so full of holes and worse, that the case is deemed no more than vexatious

all will be revealed in due course

have i seen many what?
almost certainly not, whatever the meaning of the Q :-)

however, an obligation to pay money into court up front is quite common i believe

.

would beg to differ, not least because it would almost imply prejudgment
