| Subject: | REQUEST TO NOTIFY OWNERS IMMEDIATELY: EC and the Strata Manager declined to attend Mediation two times in DFT case SM12/1537JR |
| Date: | 27/3/13, 4:17 pm |
Hello,
As expected, the EC and the Strata Manager declined to attempt the mediation in DFT case SM12/1537JR for the SECOND TIME.
a) The "excuse" for the second attempt was that the EC did not have "enough" documents to analyze my claims before deciding if they should attend the mediation. That statement proved to be false.
This was initiated by the unapproved action by the Solicitor Adrian Mueller on 6 March 2013.
He did not and does not have the authority to represent the owners corporation, which I documented in my response in the email to the DFT on 7 March 2013.
No response or any evidence to prove me wrong was offered by the EC and the Strata Manager.
b) In my response to the DFT on 7 March 2013 I documented why the EC cannot expect me to provide folders free of charge when each party in mediation MUST bring their own evidence.
Plus, I provided plenty of files via email in the past to them anyway. There is nothing to "think about" if they should or should not attempt mediation. They SHOULD HAVE ATTENDED at all costs.
To make it clear, in all previous DFT and CTT cases, each party had to pay for their own files and documents.
It is neither my duty to act as free Secretary, not legislated that I have to provide any documents free of charge. I pay for everything from my own pocket, so the same has to apply to other parties too.
Even worse, to prove my point, in spite of the CTTT latest orders, the Solicitor did not provide files to me and I had to pay for them myself on 27 February 2013 (for pending Hearing in case SCS 12/32675 scheduled for 15 April 2013).
The CTTT did not make any effort to enforce the documents be provided to me free of charge, in spite of that being clearly documented in the CTTT orders and myself complaining about it three times!
c) The Director-General letter on 13 March 2013 officially documents the rule that parties are to meet their own cost of mediation.
Therefore, the CTTT case SCS 12/50460 will now proceed in full. There are no more obstacles to delay it any further. I will update the CTTT with the latest document and provide another folder to document wrongdoings of the Strata Manager since the AGM 2012 to ensure that proper penalties and actions by the CTTT apply.
Owners deserve to receive the copies of the attachments I provide herewith.
The Solicitor Adrian Mueller has stayed silent since my challenge on 7 March 2013 and is not responding to my questions who had authorized him to send the letter on 6 March 2013. He certainly did not get such authority from the owners corporation as it can only happen at a general meeting.
The EC members stay silent on all issues I raised.
The Strata Manager stays silent too.
