Founder’s Letter and Archive Declaration

Welcome to CURB

The Campaign for Unredacted and Restorative Balance

It has been widely circulated that CURB has undergone a full editorial refurbishment. This is true — and overdue. Every capsule, dossier, and record has been rechecked, anonymised, and contradiction-proofed to protect the braid, the public, and every Litigant in Person who walks this path alone.

While every care has been taken to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the information presented, the volume of work has been intense. Rechecks are ongoing. We apologise for any inconvenience while this live forensic archive continues to evolve. Our commitment remains: to make the legal system legible, accountable, and accessible to all.

Status of the Dossiers and Records

• Six Dossiers have now been prepared, with five currently in circulation.
• Dossier VI remains pending. While some replies have been received, silence and reluctance to answer serious questions continue. This too will be documented.
• Litigant Record II — Beyond the Dossier contains vital evidence of harm and its generators. For personal and legal safety reasons, it is still undergoing final review to ensure it is web-safe for all. It will be published in due course.

When the Regulator Refuses to Regulate

The Solicitors Regulation Authority was created to protect the public from solicitor misconduct. That is its mandate. That is its promise.

But in November 2025, after receiving a detailed dossier of harm, the SRA responded:

“We will only investigate the seriousness of your complaint

If someone else does first.”

This is not public protection.

It is deflection.

This is not oversight. It is containment.

This is not a failure. It is a design.

The SRA did not dispute the evidence. It did not deny the harm. It simply refused to act — unless the courts or the Legal Ombudsman went first. But the Ombudsman cannot discipline solicitors. And the courts are not regulators.

So who protects the public?

This is the question Litigant Record VI will answer — with corroborated evidence, not conjecture

When the Pattern Became Public

It has now been confirmed that further complaints about the solicitor I instructed were submitted by other clients while my case was still active — both before and after it was concluded.

In response to those complaints, the firm issued formal apologies, admitted fault, and even stated that “the solicitor in question was very upset at having let their clients down.”  Refunds were processed — but nowhere near the extent of the financial loss or the harm caused.

My own disclosures, submitted earlier and supported by corroborated evidence, were dismissed.

This reinforces a broader pattern — one no longer confined to my experience alone. Others have come forward. Their accounts echo the same failures, the same tactics, the same harm.

Litigant Record VI will document this pattern in full — grounded in my own evidence and the public record.

Founder’s Declaration

Founder of CURB — (Children Under Risk of Bullying) — Maureen Booth-Martin has undertaken the public documentation of harm that others are still desperately trying to silence.

This is not just a story of childhood bullying.  It is a systemic record of exclusion, intimidation, and procedural misconduct — carried out with the full support of legal firms who enabled wrongdoing by individual solicitors and institutional actors.

The legal system in the United Kingdom has not only proven to be broken — it has proven to be protected.

Parliamentary oversight and public accountability have been obstructed.

Not by accident,

But by design.

The following pages expose how misconduct is allowed to go undetected,

Buried beneath procedural fog and professional silence.

Maureen takes full responsibility for everything posted on this page and those that follow. 

                                            This is her record.

This is her witness.

                                  This is CURB.

Due to the following being a truthful account of lived harm — and the investigation still ongoing — some names may be changed to protect and ensure procedural fairness.

This Isn’t Just a Story. It’s a Forensic Archive.

CURB holds six Litigant Records.

Each one threads a different strand of harm.

Each one exposes a different form of silence.

Each one protects the truth.

Litigant Record I

 A Record They Are Still Trying to Bury

The deception. The intimidation.

The threat to remain silent. The system that looked away.

Litigant Record II — Beyond the Dossier

The harm that couldn’t be contained. The evidence that outgrew the file.

Litigant Record III

Beyond the Dossier (continued)

The escalation. The rewriting. The emotional toll of being right.

Litigant Record IV

Where the Gatekeeper Becomes the Architect

The professionals who didn’t just block access — they built the barriers.

Litigant Record V — Structural Containment

The system’s final defence: containment, delay, and procedural erasure.

Litigant Record VI — Pending

The restoration. The reckoning. The voice that will not be buried

Rebuilding CURB

In the wake of personal trauma and sustained advocacy, Maureen restructured and re-launched CURB from Cardiff Central Police Station on May 1st, 2006.

Six years later, on May 1st, 2012, CURB celebrated its 21st birthday — a legacy built from lived truth, not funding.

CURB became a lifeline for families navigating bullying, offering emotional support, procedural guidance, and access to legal advocacy.

But as the founder’s own circumstances shifted — including health challenges and the emotional toll of navigating the legal system as a Litigant in Person — CURB’s role evolved.

CURB’s Evolving Advocacy

Maureen continues to advocate for children and families — but her journey as a Litigant in Person has revealed another layer of harm.

What began as a campaign against bullying has now widened to expose hidden risks:

• Procedural failures
• Regulatory blind spots
• Systemic misconduct that places families at risk

These dangers are rarely acknowledged — especially when parents are forced to navigate the legal system without representation.

CURB’s advocacy now reflects this reality, highlighting the lived experience of Litigants in Person and the impact on children, families, and emotional safety.

Maureen was appointed as a Court Deputy for her son but navigated the legal system without representation — building and submitting formal documentation as a Litigant in Person.

In 2021, that role took another turn when she was forced to confront a scam builder — a confrontation that exposed hidden risks within the legal system itself.

What she uncovered placed children and families in danger — not through neglect, but through procedural blind spots and failures rarely acknowledged.

CURB now speaks to this truth, not to accuse, but to protect others from the same fate.

A Vow That Cannot Be Buried

In 2025, Maureen’s son — known here as Cub — was confirmed to have acquired a long-term, life-threatening condition as a result of the harm caused.

This harm was not inevitable.

It was made possible by those who protected a scam builder and a broken legal system. 

                                   This is not a grievance.

It is a forensic record.

                               And the record will hold.

Maureen does not intend to stop until she receives the answers:

How does the legal system protect itself — even when it has been proven to destroy the lives of so many, including the vulnerable?

Why have successive governments designed regulators that refuse to act — even when the harm is clear?

What harm are they protecting — and at what cost?

This is not a phase.

It is a vow — to keep asking, to keep documenting, and to protect others from the same fate.
