Re: Judicial Misconduct, Government Complicity, and Demand for the Whereabouts of My Unlawfully Removed Daughter, Emily

Dear Sir/Madam,

Following my earlier formal notifications and the establishment of the Independent Public Justice Panel, I now write with an expanded submission that must be acknowledged as a matter of urgent public interest, involving judicial misconduct, jurisdictional breach, and the ongoing unlawful concealment of a child.

A Criminal Jurisdictional Breach

Judge Hollis issued a Care Order without jurisdiction, based on the following irrefutable facts:

1. The proceedings arose from a private law application (likely under Section 8 of the Children Act 1989).
2. No Form C110A (required under Section 31 for public law care proceedings) was ever submitted by the Local Authority.
3. As such, the Family Court was not seized of lawful care proceedings, and the order made was ultra vires.
4. Consequently, Emily’s removal from my care was unlawful, as was her placement and any subsequent adoption process.
5. This represents not just a civil wrong, but a potential criminal act, including procedural fraud, contempt of court, and misfeasance in public office.

 The UK Government’s Inaction = Institutional Negligence

The Prime Minister’s Office has stated that the UK Government “cannot intervene in civil or criminal matters”. This is a deflection of responsibility. When the state facilitates or finances care arrangements for a child who has been abducted under an unlawful court order, it is not just a civil matter. It becomes:

• State-sponsored concealment of a child
• Complicity in fraud against the public purse
• A failure of statutory safeguarding duties
• A breach of Article 8 ECHR: the right to family and private life

Such conduct constitutes Oblique Intent—the knowing, deliberate perpetuation of harm by omission.

WHERE IS MY DAUGHTER?

I now formally demand an immediate answer to the following:

• Where is my daughter, Emily?
• Who authorised her removal, on what date, and under what legal power?
• Where is she currently placed, and under what legal basis is her placement being funded?
• Has she been adopted, placed in care, or otherwise detained without parental consent? Or correct paperwork.
• According to the Department for Education and Judge Hollis, she appears to be in two different places simultaneously under a parliamentary office complaint. Does no one know where she is? Where is the duty of care?
• What safeguarding reviews have been conducted on her case, and by whom?

If the Local Authority (or any agency acting on their behalf) cannot produce the legal instrument authorising these actions, then they are detaining a child unlawfully. This raises the spectre of state-facilitated child abduction.

 Required Immediate Action

1. Full Disclosure of Court Files
   • Confirm the non-existence of Form C110A
   • Provide the full court transcripts and judicial reasoning
2. Disclosure from East Sussex County Council
   • All legal submissions, internal notes, and records of Legal Gateway Meetings
3. Investigation into Judicial Misconduct
   • A formal investigation into the conduct of Judge Hollis for acting without jurisdiction and facilitating an unlawful care arrangement

 Legal Consequences of Continued Obstruction

This communication serves as formal notice that your failure to act in good faith, or to secure the return of a wrongfully removed child, will be cited in future litigation.

If it is established in a court of law or inquiry that your office had knowledge of the unlawful basis of these proceedings and failed to intervene, you may be complicit in institutional negligence, abuse of power, and actionable harm.

I await your immediate response with:

• A clear answer to the whereabouts of my daughter
• Confirmation of all legal bases for her removal and current care
• Disclosure of the documents requested above

Sincerely,
Martin Newbold
