HELP PLEASE :( Civil Enforcement LTD - Taking me to Northampton County Court???

[adenovan12781]

Hi

Hoping some one can reply ASAP. received a county court claim form on the 10th March. The letter is dated the 4th. I am resuming they are trying to recover ticket costs, however i have never ever received any previous correspondence from these people stating i had committed a parking offence
i am familiar with this company as i received one a few years ago, just ignored it and it went away. however this one is dated February this year. the letter do-sent state where i was parked? how can i admit this if i dont even know where i am supposed to of parked? there are also 2 other named drivers on my insurance policy so if my car has been parked here, i dont even know if it was me little bit worried as I do not want a CCJ on my record but also do not want to shell out this money for something i cant be sure of? also i am not legally minded at all and do not know terminolgy of this kind of stuff.

Any help would be good. I have a scanned copy of the letter received if it helps anyone and would massively appreciate some advice x

You need to wait for the particulars of claim to arrive.


In the mean time get your own confirmation from SRA that Schwartz has no standing to sign the claim.




I suggest you contact the SRA.


contactcentre@sra.org.uk


Dear Sir/Madam,


I write to you to enquire about Mr Michael David Schwartz #118966 who was/is subject to control of practice as per http://www.sra.org.uk/consumers/soli...ticle?decision


It is my understanding that "Mr Schwartz shall act as a solicitor only in employment, the arrangements for which have been approved by the SRA."


As he is lodging claim forms with the courts, i would like to enquire if any arrangements are in place to allow him to do so ?


Yours Sincerely




This has no effect on the court timescales and we must keep to those.

Many thanks,

I'll send this email. Do i need to send any repsonse to the court claim form? What happens if 'the particulars of the claim' arrive after the 14 days i have to respond to the claim form.

Sorry if my questions are daft i have never ever received anything like this

thanks

No response until the particulars arrive. The 14 days do not start until then.

Thank you , I am currently reading online forums around this topic but find lots of conflicting information.
As i have received this claim form, does this mean i have a CCJ on my record? Or when does it turn into a CCJ?

And it would only affect the credit record if unpaid after 28 days.

You shouldn't have done anything until the particulars arrived although it's not a huge deal.

Contact CEL and ask where they are.
