Judge Attacks Helena Skeggs Over Delaying Tactics
July 17, 2012
A senior British judge yesterday lambasted Helena Skeggs (above) as "opportunistic" after a submission of a medical certificate in the latest delaying stunt to hold off a court case.
His Honour Judge David Mitchell sitting in the London Central County Court was outraged when Skeggs did not appear in his court to answer a summons over a claim for £60,000. Skeggs' husband Richard Skeggs and their advisor, Philip Englefield, presented the medical certificate as a reason to have the case adjourned to a later date.

Claiming variously to be the illegitimate daughter or the adopted daughter of former President Marcos, and using luxury hotels in London as her working backdrop, she has been busy extracting money from her kababayans.

When it comes to mixing with the low life brigade, even pretenders to the Marcos dynasty do not stint themselves.
