30 Days to avoid CCJ

[Marcus846]

Hi,

I have received a CCJ claim form now from the court and it’s says I have to fill it in and give my defence if I dispute all the claim which I do.

Can someone please help me with this?

Many thanks
Mark

Wow they truly are fools aren't they, as instructed in post #47 send them a CPR 31.14 request for the documents they mention in the particulars of claim, which will likely be 'agreement' and 'notice of assignment.'

Once they write back with the same nonsense about credit agreements have a go at drafting up, then posting here your defence. Then I can have a look and suggest any tweaks or additional information you might want to add.

Remember this is not your witness statement, so it should be concise and factual.

Many thanks, I’ve sent the CPR 31.14 and yes that’s what is in the particulars of the claim.
I’ll update as soon as they write back, thanks.

One the Acknowledgment of the claim I have ticked I intend to defend all the claim but on the online one it says do I want to contest jurisdiction, I’m not sure to tick that or not?

Thanks Mark

Hi,

I’ve sent the CPR 31.14 request on Saturday 1st October and I’ve done the AOS on the moneyclaim website yesterday.

I am due to go away on the 16th October for two weeks will this be in the time period when I log my defence and can I ask for an extension from the court if it is?

I looked around the forum but I’m struggling to understand, do I get 28 days plus 5 days that the letter takes to get to me? The letter is dated 27th September

Sorry for another question but I’m struggling to grasp all this.

Start date was 4th November 2016

Date of default 29 June 2017

Can someone please advise me on these timescales and if I can ask for an extension please?

I haven’t anything back from my request yet.

Yes you get 33 days from the date on the Claim form N1, if you are going to be away you should write to the other side and request they agree to an extension to file your defence by 28 days pursuant to CPR 15.5.

If they agree you are obliged to notify the court they have agreed in writing.

Post a draft of your defence with personal info removed once you have drafted it for comment.

[Marcus846]

Thank you for your reply, I will have a few days when I get back to put my defence together when we return. I will post on 1st November and if anyone c

Hi,

I have just got back from holiday and they have not sent the documents I requested in my CPR 31.14.

How do I proceed now? Do I put in my defence that they haven’t provided the requested documentation?

Many thanks
