        Hello again......

        In the defendant's witness statement, the person mentions two people they have spoken to whilst writing their defence. But....within the body of the document, they quote a third person. Is this allowed?

          There's no way to challenge this, but if they are reliant on other persons at the hearing they would have to produce the witness statements of those persons for the judge to take that evidence in to account.

              Upto, and including, the letter before claim, the defendant didn't deny any of the things we complained about. So we issued a part 8. The defendant has disputed the part 8 because there is a "significant dispute of facts". Shouldn't they have replied to the letter before claim, outlining their dispute? And not waited until we issued proceedings before disputing?

                Often it's the case they don't respond as I think most of them think court proceedings are an idle threat, which in a lot of cases is probably true.

                    Is there any case law we could use to argue against a part 8 being changed to a part 7?
