A most unwelcome development.

This is a lose-lose-win situation:
The plantiff loses, the defendant loses and the
lawyers win at every turn.

I hope that senior members of the movement may find
some way to engage this individual in dialogue and
avert a costly legal battle which will be in no-one's
interest.

All the information suggests that the BGA, club and
instructor have a robust defence, but that maintaining
this defence will cost the movement and the individual
concerned considerable legal fees.

I hope that we can find a way of persuading the
individual to withdraw this writ without everyone
incurring large legal costs.
