Help needed

Hi
I am new here but have a few problems I hope someone can help me.
firstly John has been getting high rate mobility and middle care for 7+years then in sept they used a very flawed esa medical nil points to remove all benefits
I have complained about this in sept but they state they never got any paperwork (I sent rec del and have the Proof of posting)
anyway the ESA people called him in late sept saying is this correct as the DM thought it was odd that after 7 years John was healed.
The outcome of this was the medical was overturned and John was given 15 points over 2 catagories
We then gave this info to DLA who said they would mark as a pass or remove this medical from further reconciderations
well we sent off 2 appeal forms they claim the first never got there 1 in sept 1 in dec and a whole bunch of medical evidence
Including a letter from my GP stating that John "remains serverly functionally restricted" can anybody tell me what that means?
but I sent this to DLA and they sent a submission to me that did not even mention the GP's letter
sorry one more thing he had a home visit from an EMP but she has not put his name or NI number on any of the pages bar the first is this a problem?
also she has ignored a lot of the medical evidence
Any help would be very appreciated

Just to be clear. Are you saying that Johns DLA was stopped due to his ESA medical ?

yes all they had in sept was the esa medical a letter from his GP saying he has long term problems that cause serious disability and other things john had put in his form and the claim form so the only thing against john nwas the ESA thing

Many thanks
Sarah

I think i have found out what this means it is a term used by Dm's to say how bad someones back pain is mild/moderate and severe

since this is the dms guidelines should they have ignored it?

Are the DLA Unit now in receipt of a valid appeal against the decision to terminate the DLA award, and if so, did the visit by the EMP follow receipt of the appeal?

Yes well sort of
esa medical /8/11
Dla removed 3/9/11
I sent a GL24 in 15/9/11 with other paper work then waited was told ESA had been overturned and 15 points given and placed in wrag told DLA about this
waited got EMP medical 9/11/11
16/11 asked for EMP medical copy
23/11 asked again for EMP medical copy and found out that first GL24 had never turned up but all the other paperwork did (i have rec del details)
so was told i had to do another even when i said i had copies so sent back form 2 with copy of form one stating there mistake and rec del form
early dec they log appeal
