  • Need to correspond with both court and other party

    I am in a long ongoing dispute in the Small Claims court where originally a mediated agreement was reached but since then the other party has chosen to break that agreement several times before finally saying they have no intention of abiding by the agreement.
    I had to raise an N244 form and today attended court having duly paid my £255, it seems only 20 minutes was given for this so ended up more like a directions hearing.
    2 things came to my attention during the hearing which seem to my simple way of thinking of concern.
    Firstly when I submitted the N244 I sent copies both to the court and the other party, from what was said the Judge said that it appears based on a response from the respondent that they had no intention of keeping the agreement. Now I have never seen that communication so the full contents of which I have not seen to be able to address these.
    My first question is, who should have ensured I got a copy of this response, if indeed I should have? the respondent or the courts?
    The Judge has now listed the matter for a 2 hour hearing at a date to be set and statements to be exchanged within the week. The Judge said there will be a hearing fee to be paid, given I have now paid £308 for the first hearing and now a further £255 for this second hearing which was only 15 minutes long, should I realistically be expected to pay yet another fee? And how much is this likely to be given it was £255 for 15 minute hearing and the next one is set aside to be 2 hours?
    I should add that both sides are acting as LIP so no solicitors to consult on this.
    TIA
