      You may want to look at this thread which is very similar: http://www.legalbeagles.info/forums/...555#post411555

      If your claim was DATED Jan 27th, my calculations of 28 days + 5 for service indicate your defence would be due by Friday Feb 28th. :clock: In the meantime, you need to contact BW Legal and say that, if they refuse to supply you with the documents, you will have no option but to apply to the court for an unless order. Log every email and phone call, as you will need to include these details should it be necessary to apply for the order.

      You don't need to tell the court anything until they either agree to an extension (you will have to notify the court in writing if they do) or you apply for an order.

        thanku. nither lowells or bw legal have bothered to get back to me so im going to contact them and tell them to back off supply the docs or i will apply for the unless order.

        how rude not to even bother responding. so what do i do if they still dont respond? do i contact the court on the 28th and explain what i have done?

          Don't contact Lowell, just BW Legal. They are the ones who would have to agree to an extension for failing to supply the documents. No need to remind Lowell that they haven't complied with your request, since non-compliance can be used in your defence. :thumb:

          No, don't wait till then. Email and/or ring BW Legal and explain that, even if they were to supply the documents immediately (which would be Mon/Tue next week), you would only have a couple of days to prepare a defence. Ask them to agree to an extension of 28 days as allowed by CPR 15.5. If they do, get them to send you an email confirming the agreement, then inform the court. :typing:

          If they refuse to agree to the extension, you will need to apply for an unless order, where you will have to list the steps you took, i.e.
          • sent an email on xx/xx/2014 - no response
          • followed up with phone call at xxx hrs - spoke to xxx who said yyy


          ...so it's best to start getting your ducks in a row.

                You've had nothing at all back ?

                If you are going down the CPR route then you should carry it through. There's a guide http://www.legalbeagles.info/forums/...ic-information which should help with the application for an unless order.

                If the claim was issue 27th Jan then probably service date 31st, so 28 days from then and yes application needs to go in tomorrow really.

                    Don't worry, or panic, you're fine. They are not fine. They have claimed against you in court without having anything to back up their claim. Have a read of the application stuff and let me know if theres any queries. You can attach documents to an email and submit them that way to Northampton.

                    (Have put posts back on your thread )

                              hiya thanks again. just read about the unless order. theres no way we can afford the fees and i have no time to work out and provide proof that we might be entitled to remission on fees? what are the chances of me doing a defence with all my emails and requests being ignored that the court will say no chance to bw legal anyway? i really need help with the defence part. oh my goodness this is stressful.
