Re: Court papers imminent - debtor now living abroad.
Well it would appear that our friend Mr Carter has decided to ignore previous letters and the fact my Brother is a non UK resident living in Australia. We had some letters dropped off yesterday from the people renting brothers house. 1st one opened was from Carter dated 18 June to say you have failed to pay and we have now issued litigation proceedings which you should receive in the next 48 hours. 2nd letter opened was the claim form from CCBC with issue date 18 June 2014. They only drop off letters to me once every few weeks so lucky I received this claim before Carter had the chance to obtain default judgment.
The claim is for £672 the amount due under an agreement between the OC and the defendant to provide finance and/or services and/or goods.
This debt was assigned to/purchased by Lowell Portfollio 1 ltd on 25/04/2013 and notice served pursuant to LoP 1925.
The claimant claims £672.68
S69 int. from 25/04/13 £61.61
court fee £60
Solicitor £40
Total £864.29
I understand that when contesting jurisdiction it is important that no defence is submitted as that would indicate acceptance of the jurisdiction. For now do we just complete the AoS and tick I intend to contest jurisdiction (Can this be done online using the password sent with the claim form). Will this have to be done by brother or can I deal with the claim as litigation friend.
