Ok. That was confusing, at least to me. That October date has been extended.
Father is a gift that just keeps giving to the DM. Havent heard from the siblings in a while, expect that's next.

The point was she didnt hire competent lawyers to follow deadlines and she thinks she doesn't have to follow rules. It has been noted that her side failed to submit docs that were required. If a person had nothing to hide, the deadline would have been honored the first time. Her dad is not on trial here. She is with her false facts and wasting docket space. JMO
 
Meghan's problem isn't incompetent lawyers - Meghan's problem is she doesn't follow the advice of her attorneys. IMO

1st attorney - David Sherborne

Meghan Markle replaces Princess Diana's former lawyer in court case
"David Sherborne, who has represented many high-profile people and celebrities in his legal career including Prince Harry’s late mother, Princess Diana."
"He has represented a range of high profile figures including US President Donald Trump and his wife Melania, former Prime Minister Tony Blair and his wife Cherie, Chelsea Clinton, Cheryl Cole, the Spice Girls, Sir Paul McCartney, David Walliams, Kate Moss, Sir Elton John and David Furnish."
"Mr Sherborne also worked on the Leveson Inquiry and led high-profile phone hacking claims for celebrities, including Hugh Grant."

Present attorney - Justin Rushbrooke
Justin has been involved in numerous high-profile cases and landmark decisions in recent decades, both at first instance and in the appellate courts, and across all Divisions of the High Court. His recent clients include:
Sir Cliff Richard OBE in his ground-breaking privacy claim against the BBC and South Yorkshire Police
Former President Petro Poroshenko of the Ukraine in his successful libel claim against the BBC
Steve Morgan MBE, former Chairman of Redrow Plc, in his successful libel claim against the Daily Mail
Prince Moulay Hicham of Morocco in his successful libel and data protection claim against Elaph Publishing
Wafic Saïd, prominent investor and philanthropist, in his claims against L’Express magazine and Barclays Bank for libel and data protection respectively
Nigel Farage MEP in his defence of a libel claim brought by Hope Not Hate Ltd
J K Rowling in her successful libel claim against the Daily Mail
Naomi Campbell in her successful libel claim against the Daily Telegraph

Competent lawyers do not allow room for a client to dictate what and when to file. There is no excuse not to meet the original court deadline. They are incompetent , imo.

This is now a high stakes financial risk for Markle. She was offered a settlement, she refused. Since she lost the first round, she's now liable for costs. If she loses round 2, she'll be liable for defendant costs again. At this time, her costs are approximately £110,000.

"Associated Newspapers will also ask the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to pay their costs of in excess of £50,000 after the couple refused their offer to deal with the issue out of court to save the High Court having to set up an online hearing during the coronavirus crisis. Meghan's costs are said to have been £60,000-plus."​

MOO she is not giving up because she believes her grievance needs justice.
She is giving a vote of confidence in the law that she is persisting, whether she prevails or not.

She created this mess by writing her dad a letter to set up the scene. She didnt think it would backfire. Last week's hearing also ordered her to pay 30,000 to the paper. JMO

Is she not married when referred to in this article? Did the hate campaign etc not start before that?

I wanted to find the People article that TM specifically said made him mad and caused him to give(sell) the letter MM wrote to him, to the DM.
Feb 2019 is the time frame I think.

MOO in your opinion she dus not hire competent lawyers. MOO maybe or maybe not, extended deadlines are fairly common when there are changes in case schedules.
