Hector's House Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 if Mr Hill has been declared bankrupt how can he still be collecting memberships?Because it's viewed as a hobby and not a viable business? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shetland_boys Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 It sounds like he has gotten what he wants, everyone debating over him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorrie Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 It sounds like he has gotten what he wants, everyone debating over him. Yup, everyone looking at him and not the core issue. Sooner he floats off somewhere else, the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redrobbie99 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 I see Mr Hill is now free perhaps he should try the no win no fee lawyers to examine if he has a case for false arrest and imprisonment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redrobbie99 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 I think his imprisonment was ridiculousness when you consider other persons pleading guilty to multi million pound frauds walk free from court after paying back a fraction of what they made. To big to fail i suppose cant kill the goose that lays the golden eggs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muppet Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 Remember that he was imprisoned for not carrying out his community service and paying his fine, not for the original offence. I don't see how he can possibly have any grounds to appeal, especially since he now seems to have sold all his principles down the river and agreed to carry out his punishment in a trade off deal with the courts for a reduced amount of community service.

Ghostrider Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 ^ A tad surprising right enough, we must assume he got nobbled in the jug somehow in the absence of a more plausible explanation. It won't surprise if somehow he portrays his climbdown as some sort of "victory", but they're getting less and less believable. Somehow 12 calendar days inside equates to "24 days in jail - someone explain to me how that one works.... Which equates to "writing off" 43 hours of community service. Using the same "exchange rate" the 15 hours CC he was deemed to have left "due", would have been "written off" in under 5 calendar days. Seems extremely strange that having survived 12 calendar days in jail, he sold out his principles rather than handle 5 more. Whatever else, I am sooooo glad I didn't share a maths tutor with the Scottish Justiciary, the way we were taught maths was bad enough, their version is impossble.

Popular Post JustMe Posted March 3, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 I find it interesting that all the courts so far have not been prepared to "test" his assertion that Shetland is not part of the UK and therefore their courts do not have jurisdiction here.

Ghostrider Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 ^ I suspect the reason they haven't is very mundane and boring - its easier to ignore and railroad him, and he has no ace to play to force their hand in to a showdown. It would make for a very interesting legal debate, from a historic POV if nothing else, *if* it was ever held, but Hill has no way of making that happen. The man needs to give up gracefully and quit if he has nothing new to offer, as all he's doing is digging a hole that can only get deeper, not to mention heaping farce and comedy on one aspect of a whole bigger issue.

fionajohn Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 The reason they have not tested the assertion in my mind is that he could be right ....has no one researched the Danish archives for any old documentation on the Shetland connection with the old rulers of Denmark ...jj crofter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
