  • claimants threats after I have paid ccj

    I run my own company as a go between with venues and entertainers. An entertainer took me to court for disgrimination, data protection n other issues. I counter claimed as the claimant had an outstanding debt to my company n was making 1.00 payments now and again. I did at first send the debt to a debt collector. The case was heard early october n the judge said it was down to contract law and nothing else. He awarded a small amount of money on the claimants side but also stated that the claimant had been in the wrong as well. On the counter claim for the debt I was awarded the full amount plus interest. I paid the difference between the judgements with in 14 days of the court date and thought the matter would now be over. Ive now received a text message from the claimant stating £1.00 had not been accounted for at court n I owed him it and because I had sent the debt to a collector his credit rating had been ruined and he wants compensation otherwise he is taking me back to court.

    Am i correct in thinking that if he didnt agree with the figure i gave in court he should have dissputed it then or appealed at the time of judgement and also if the judge recognised he owed my company money then I was in my rights to try and recover this through a debt collector. Also this man has tried various threats over the year while the case was pending court and is very aggressive. Where do I stand in getting him to stop if this carries on

    Thanks

      Presumably the figure was stated in a court order and if so he'd need to apply to the court to have the order varied but I doubt the court would entertain it for such a frivolous amount as £1.

      On your second point I agree. I can't see how he can dispute the entry on his credit file if there is a judgment to support it.

        The judgment debt is what it is. Unless he paid the £1 at some point very close to the date the judgment was entered.

        As far as his credit file is concerned, it is hard lines as far as I can see.

          I pointed out in court that 2.00 had been paid after I had filed the papers which was deducted he never disputed the debt. Thanks for your comments, wanted to check if I was thinking correctly.

            I'd just tell him to attempt to return the matter to court should he wish to do so and block his number if possible.
