Oliver was embroiled in R v General Medical Council Ex Parte Pal. She is infamous for her bizarre paperwork that has never made sense even when you turned it upside down. Juliet likes to manipulate the truth, she also likes to play games and she does this by using language. Language is very interesting especially when you can conceal the truth. Her most famous faux pais was to cite Dr Rita Pal to be accountable under the Human Rights Act 1998. Putting that in writing is even more embarrassing. We had to quietly mention to her that I wasn't an authority in line with the Act and therefore I was not accountable under the HRA.
While R v General Medical Council Ex Parte Pal 2009 was ongoing, Oliver and her colleagues told the world that I had resigned from my job. When she was faced with the email showing her that the Trust ended my contract, she felt a little ill. Having done so, the GMC representative - a eminent leathery Mark Shaw QC decided to seek an adjournment on the basis that they wanted to obtain internal GMC witnesses to back up their lie. Mark Shaw QC's application should be placed online in the future because it shows that the poor man was in a panic having seen the evidence that smited them all to hell and back. Their only saving grace was that Collins J had been too sleepy on a sunny afternoon to spot their lies. We spotted them and in litigation -it's not the win thats totally important but the way the game is played.
Of course, a lie remains a lie no matter how many witnesses the GMC wishes to roll in against me. The fact is the General Medical Council were desperate for any court criticism against me. The problem is, they fell on their face and were not able to establish it. In the end, after crowing through the paperwork on my so called invented resignation, after obtaining their precious witnesses, Mark, Juliet and Lesley had to abandon ship. In the end, they asked the judge not to rule on that point. So Collins J in the judgment didn't rule.
Ms Trick or Treat as we used to call her won the case but sadly for Juliet she is no longer with the General Medical Council. So the casualties during this case were as follows
1. Anna Neill - GMC Register on the case who resigned
2. Finlay Scott - Chief Executive who left the building
3. Juliet Oliver - solicitor on the case who has disappeared from the General Medical Council.
And how do we know this, well through correspondence in the case R v General Medical Council Ex Parte Norman Cave CO/2858/2009. Oliver wrote to Mr Cave on the 11th December 2009 citing that she had left the General Medical Council. We must all thank the excellent Mr Norman Cave for this result. Legions of doctors will be congratulating him in the United Kingdom.
Well, I sincerely hope she finds a more honorable way of earning a living - one that does not compromise her integrity. Somehow through her correspondence, I always felt she was forced into a certain position by her client's demands. We all like to believe that people can forget their dark past and start afresh. I certainly hope Juliet can start a new life away from the GMC. From my side, we had the biggest laugh when she cited that I was accountable under the Human Rights Act 1998. Every single solicitor I showed it to howled with laughter. Perhaps one day Juliet will be able to laugh with us because lets face it - it is hilariously funny for a paid GMC lawyer to make a howling great mistake on paper [ signed] like that.
No one is perfect of course :)
