It’s altogether quite ironic that Ben and his clan makes use of grammatical errors on legal documents while his most ardent supporters on social media struggle to read and write their own names.

What sort of time is he actually likely to serve?

Jim of the Family Freeman Corr Blimey has setup a GoFund me page of Ben of the Family Gimproy to help his family through this period of hardship.
Would it not have been better if Ben got a steady job to look after his family instead of ruining his family and others by vexatious claims over the last 5 or so years.

Is he not still collecting rent on the properties that the banks are trying to repossess?

His difficulty arose from the October 2017 order incorrectly identifying the title of AIB, he said. He said he had previously successfully raised the issue of AIB using incorrect title with another High Court judge and alleged the bank had behaved fraudulently concerning title.
He referred to an issue about a comma, said it was a “very serious” thing to ensure “true title” and he wanted the October 2017 order to reflect the “true title”.

:rolleyes:

well, taking into account good behaviour, it could well become a life sentence.

This has been raised as an issue before, unsuccessfully as you can imagine.

Gerry Beades once went through years and years of AIB's Companies Registration Office filings studying the placement of commas, thinking it was a dynamite legal strategy. It wasn't.

I presume the Revenue will be taking an interest in any crowd funding exercise here. Between cash, payment in kind (use of cars etc) and Paypal, those in the pseudo-legal industry like to think of themselves as being untaxable. Given that most spent the boom years in construction, property development or related trades, it reminds me of an old Viz t-shirt..

No doubt Gerry will give a live broadcast shortly donning an Armani yellow vest.

more seriously on this, previously people sent for short stays in the joy for the likes of non payment of fines etc turned up at the front gate, signed a register hung around for a few hours and were told to leave because there was no space.

Contempt of court is a more serious thing, but if ben had the sense he was born with he would go quietly and be turned around in no time.

Sadly he doesn't have the sense he was born with, given a few hours sitting in the entrance of the joy he is liable to annoy enough prison officers sufficiently for room to be cleared sharing a cell with the sturdiest aggressive man love enthusiast they have.

Judge McGovern already referred him to revenue in these proceedings as at the time he was offered community service, there were "incosistencies" on his declared income... I would think that revenue are looking at any income derived from his pseudo-legal McKenzie friend services very closely

Viz Christmas Edition last month had a great McKenzie friend spoof article, some guy working from his 'plush bedsit-cum-office above a Bolton chipper' getting the rich and famous off charges. "I'd been done for benefit fraud enough times myself to know the lack of a surname on the charge sheet was going to get Adele off the charge of renting out her council house".

That's incredibly prescient given that The Hub Ireland are now dispensing their "totally not legal advice in any way" from above a middle Eastern restaurant.

Geek that I am, I perused the original judgement...

He had counsel at the time of the community service order and he consented to that order, then claimed it was not valid due to a comma? Perhaps the jail time is not as much of a shock to ben as people seem to believe

A good days work by judge McGovern. Seems gilroy refused to do community service because there was an extra comma in the order....finally foiled by his own half baked legal waffle

Au contraire

Half baked legal waffle is far too complimentary to his brand of bullsh1te

Shamelessly stolen from somewhere else.

They managed to round a whole seven people (one of whom is his wife). Fight the power you pack of lunatics.

There's about thirty now there. They are now after the prison service as they would not let Ben's wife and Gemma O'Doherty visit him today. They accused the prison guard of saying that Ben's "celebrity" status will not get him any special treatment and him being dismissive.

Pretty clear that she just rocked up and asked to see him, they said no, sorry, there is a procedure for prison visits. Gemma most likely got stroppy and the prison guard responded with that line. Nothing out of order there as far as i can see

They could do with a specialist in Admirality Law for that one, wonder where they could find one of those ?

I'm sure there's a joke about conjugal visits and maritime (marry-time) law in there somewhere

Nah that's not him. Although there are one or two of Ben's previous "clients" in the video

Well he can't complain that his bogeyman "Mainstream Media" is ignoring him being jailed, although I can't imagine he'd be too happy at their (entirely accurate) description of him
