Hi guys,
Im wondering if someone can give me any advice at all.
I have lodged a small claim against a company and they are consistently not following court instructions
They never sent me their DQ,
They were given a General Sanctions Order for not filing their DQ in good time.
Now they have not sent me their evidence/witness statements - they have only sent it to the court.
The Preparation for the hearing instruction specifically asked all parties to furnish each party and the courts with their witness statements and evidence.
I am under the impression they have waited to receive my evidence before putting theirs together and submitting it, but hey ho.
I phoned the civil 'hotline' of my local court and they confirmed they had received documentation from both parties, and said i should email them to confirm i hadnt if that was the case. I have sent this email confirming i have received no documentation from them.
My questions are, is there anything i can do or say at this point?
Surely the evidence they have submitted cannot be accepted if they haven't sent me it?
Is it worthwhile reminding the court of their previous failings or will they be aware the the General Sanctions Order already against them before it was allocated to the local court.
Am i best just waiting and seeing what the court comes back with?
Any advice at all would be great.
Edit: Can i file for judgement using N227 (or any other form, im really not familiar with the process) if they haven't filed with me and only the court?
Thanks in advance
JJ
