Subject: Default Notice to East Sussex Council

Dear Keith Glazier,

I write to formally address two critical matters:

1. Habeas Corpus Ad Judice – Served on East Sussex Council under Subject Access Request (Ref: 19567481)
2. Martin Newbold v Nationwide Ltd – Ongoing litigation regarding financial liabilities and settlements

Habeas Corpus & Council’s Responsibility

Subject: Urgent Escalation – Noncompliance with Court Obligations & Fraud Upon the Court

Dear Keith Glazier,

I am now formally escalating this matter, having previously written to you regarding what you refer to as “shared Local Authority Parental Responsibility,” which, in practical terms, extends to income and financial liabilities for the Local Authority.

East Sussex Council’s Criminal Conduct & Financial Liability

Fourteen years ago, East Sussex County Council committed a criminal act against my family, fully aware that the situation would have serious legal and financial consequences for all parties involved. As a result, East Sussex now carries an estimated liability of £50 million.

This matter, and the clear criminal intent of your Local Authority in failing its obligations under the Care Act, demonstrates a manifestly poor standard of governance. Your failure to meet statutory duties contradicts your office’s repeated claims of prioritizing children’s welfare.

You are now fully aware that your authority places children with non-biological or unrelated individuals based on fabricated reports submitted to the court by a single social worker using a non de plume. The fraudulent nature of these reports is undeniable, as the social worker was caught falsifying information at Action for Children, Hastings. If this individual also lied on an affidavit, then under penalty of perjury, she has committed fraud upon the court—an indictable offense.

Furthermore, when a judge issues a court order based on fraudulent affidavits, the judge has also committed a felony. Under established case law, fraud upon the court immediately voids subject matter jurisdiction, exposing the judge to liability and legal action for their fraudulent conduct.

Relevant Case Law:

• Davis v. Burris (Casetext, CourtListener)
• Gregory v. Thompson (Casetext, CaseMine)
• Cooper v. O’Connor (Justia, Casetext)
• Fidelity & Guarantee Co. (Justia)

Anyone attempting to enforce an illegal court order is, in effect, committing an act of violence and should be held accountable under the law.

Failure to Address Habeas Corpus & Your Ongoing Negligence

On March 12, 2025, you were officially instructed to ensure my daughter was made ready for court under your obligations. Despite this, you have failed to provide any response that acknowledges the legal requirements placed upon you. This omission ridicules the authority of the court.

The Jurisdictional Fraud of Reading & Newry Social Services

It is irrefutable that Reading Social Services received confirmation from Newry Social Services that Catherine/Cathyrn and Lauren had moved to Northern Ireland. Despite this, Reading Social Services, East Sussex Social Services, and Newry Social Services have all actively misrepresented or concealed this fact.

This raises urgent legal concerns:

1. Why has Reading Social Services deliberately ignored and misrepresented documented evidence confirming Catherine and Lauren’s relocation?
2. Has there been a coordinated effort to obstruct justice by falsifying the location of Catherine and Lauren?
3. Is this jurisdictional deception being used to justify unlawful actions?
4. Why has the Local Government & Social Care Ombudsman (LGSCO) failed to investigate this blatant misconduct?

Additionally, I demand immediate clarification on the false claim that Lauren, Emily’s sister, was born in Northern Ireland. This is factually incorrect. If officials are deliberately maintaining this falsehood, then either gross negligence or intentional fraud is at play.

Immediate Action Required

I require an urgent written response confirming:

1. How East Sussex County Council intends to comply with the Habeas Corpus order.
2. A correction of the false assertion regarding Lauren’s birthplace.
3. An explanation for Reading Social Services’ failure to act lawfully.
4. A formal LGSCO investigation into these jurisdictional irregularities.

Failure to provide a clear, legally compliant response within [reasonable deadline, e.g., 7 days] will lead to further legal action and public exposure of this misconduct.

Yours sincerely,
Martin Newbold
