Dear M,
Humberside Police is committed to providing a quality of service to all members of
the public and I am grateful, therefore, that you have taken the trouble to bring this
matter to our attention. This has been passed to me to assess and respond to you.
Your allegation has been assessed to be one falling under the category of neglect or
failure in duty and has been assessed by the Professional Standards Branch as
being a complaint that can be dealt with under the Local Resolution process.
I note your response to my recent e-mail that you do not wish to engage in this
process. I am able to complete the complaint in this manner and you do have a right
of appeal as indicated below.
I have sought legal advice from our Force Solicitors in respect of the points you
make.
I understand that this matter has been heard in a court of law. The advice I have
obtained is that the issues you raise may be appeal points that could be raised at
any subsequent appeal hearings.
Humberside Police do not investigate allegations of perjury unless a request to do so
comes from the court themselves.
The judge in the case is protected in law for making decisions whilst carrying out
their duties in law courts.
Therefore the advice you were given was correct and you should return to the courts
to argue the points you raise.
I have enclosed for you information

a Fact Sheet entitled "Appealing

NOT PROTECTIVELY

MARKED

against the

NOT PROTECTIVELY

MARKED

Local Resolution process." This document explains how you may appeal to the
Humberside Police Appeal Body in respect of the outcome of the Local Resolution
process.
The appropriate appeal body is the Humberside Police Appeal Body as your
complaint does not relate to the conduct of a senior officer, has not been referred to
the IPee, does not justify criminal or misconduct proceedings and does not arise
from the same incident as a complaint where the IPee would have to deal with any
appeal.
You have 29 days from the date of this letter, within which to make your appeal. You
are advised to post your appeal in good time to ensure it reaches the Humberside
Police Appeal Body before the end of the 29th day. The 29th day is 11 February

2016. Appeals received after 29 days may not be allowed unless there are
exceptional circumstances.
You might want to consider using guaranteed

next-day delivery post service to

ensure that your appeal is received within time.

Your sincerely

AUanHARVEV
Inspector 5521
