"Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was"
The games, carelessness, disrespect and bizareness go on!
As if this saga didn't have enough drama already, even as it winds down to some kind of conclusion the twists and turns and nonsense keep coming.
Here's the short of the latest fiasco and I'll fill in some more details in my blog later:
On Friday afternoon I received another notice from the Taipei District Court.
I suspected what it was about and took it to the court building to ask the staff what it was.
It was a change in the court hearing date from March 30 to April 21 requested by...my most recent lawyer who quit a month ago!
The court staff did not know the attorney had quit and were just as confused as I was about what was going on after I reminded them I told them a few weeks ago I had no lawyer because he had quit.
Apparently, I was the ONLY ONE who didn't know the attorney and the Legal Aid Foundation had decided he should stay on until the next hearing and while they waited for my appeal of their decision to not find me a new lawyer.
The court staff said the new judge said the next hearing would be the last.
I was all set for the original hearing date on March 31 and I can not attend a hearing on April 21.
As you can see, NOBODY advised me of or consulted me about changing the court date!
