The Price of Injustice



I have worked out the cost, to the State, of perpetuating this injustice. Court costs, legal fees and appeal costs are from official sources. The figures for corresponding with various parts of the injustice system and for consulting my GP are guesstimates. There are no figures for loss of income tax while I was unable to work because of stress.

Court, Prosecution & lying Witness costs  £3700 
50+ letters requiring a response from various official bodies  £1000 
Legal Aid fees (excluding Counsel's fees)  £875 
SCCRC unit cost of processing an application  £5649 
Cost of appeal to Europe  TBA 
Cost (estimated) of medical treatment  £100 
Incapacity Benefit  £1460 
Less fine paid to Sheriff Court  £300 
Total cost to State  £12,484 

For those interested in the additional insurance cost of a CD30 motoring conviction, Direct Line wanted £15 pa for my 7 points. After negotiation and cutting out unnecessary benefits, my bill was actually reduced by £40!
