Couple of questions...
1. What was the breach of the DPA about?
2. There COULD possibly be a case to answer if the actual buyer can be arsed to go through with it all...?
My guess (and I stress guess) - the OP's sharing of material that had been uploaded to the County Court portal without consent.1. What was the breach of the DPA about?
2. There COULD possibly be a case to answer if the actual buyer can be arsed to go through with it all...?
I doubt that anyone cares sufficiently. If it has been struck from this process, they would need to start a new cycle of claim for that fact and proves some kind of loss? Or contact the ICO? (Who would NFA for what it's worth, at a guess, after issuing "words of advice", etc)

So chaps, ITS THE OP!!!
I went in, literally there for 10 minutes and case dismissed!!!! Walked out relieved!
I didnt even get to have a say as the judge focused on the simple fact that she had no contract of law, she gave a letter to the judge which read the money was hers and thats why she was claiming it back however the judge stated the actual buyer is not in court so "I simply don't know what your doing here" and on that basis its dismissed. The ACTUAL claimant is welcome to reapply however judge didn't think it was best as he wasn't present to show any interest attending court to begin with.
She then argued and said she wants him to look into breach of data protection? Judge stated, its very technical and although she can take some course of action its not something which he would recommend due to being too technical and dropped that side of the claim too. Now I assume she's seen this post but looking back I haven't breached any of this anyway, name etc is data protection surely as it was to see her history with the courts etc.
I counter claimed for 2 days off work and judge rewarded 2hrs pay (for hearing only) so £20, paid for my parking
Case aside, I would like to thank you all for your support and helping me remain calm throughout. Of course will share my experiences with others going through a similar phase as I know how stressful it can be... Respect to all of you!!

Great to see the correct result, but one question: Who pays for all of this?!
I'm sure the answer is A) Me (as a tax payer) and B) as explained earlier in the thread, but jst to be clear, doesn't the claimant now have some kind of legal bill to face? I mean, if only at the very least because she had no case anyway as she wasn't the buyer?

No. That's the point of small claims court. Low cost access to justice. It had no merit and so was quickly dismissed.
