  • Received a county court claim which is a lie?

    I received a county court claim from a family member regarding a debt of £2000.

    I was paying as agreed, £250 per month in instalments (£1000).

    We eventually had a disagreement and stopped speaking to one another so I paid back the remainder in cash (£1000) and thought nothing of it.

    this person is now trying to say I owe them £1000 when I don’t?

    I am of course going to dispute the claim, but wanted to know where I stand with this. How can they prove I did not pay the debt back in full?

    For a bit of context, this person is unstable due to their drug habit and that’s why we stopped speaking. I can only assume that this is their way of trying to get back at me over our disagreement?

    My question is, do they need to provide me with evidence that I owe this money? As they are also claiming I owe their rent charge, no idea why, but there has been no evidence supplied for any of this.

    In my defence can I deny all allegations and request evidence?
