My experience so far with Southampton regional divorce centre is that a petition has been rejected because it indicated that the Petitioner was represented by a solicitor whose details and address for service appeared in the (correct) box on the form but then didn't include the details of the P's address for service in the box underneath. Well, that's because the details had already been given in the right place, a point which the staff at every other Court I have ever used could understand and process appropriately.

Then in another case they have mis-spelled the P's name by not copying it correctly, obviously, and it wasn't even an unusual name.

I presume that these centres have taken on inexperienced clerical staff who have no prior knowledge of the legal processes.

I predict more of this LAB/LSC/LAA type (remember them?) behaviour before I am very much older.
