  • Receipt of Defence

    I have submitted my defence and i have receive a letter from NCCBC saying a copy is being served on the claimant.The claimant may contact you direct to attempt to resolve any dispute. If the dispute cannot be resolved informally, the claimant will inform the court that he wishes to proceed. The court will then inform you or what will happen.

    Where he wishes to proceed, the claimant must contact the court within 28 days after received a copy of your defence. After that period has elapsed, the claim will be stayed. The only action the claimant can then take will be to apply to a judge for an order lifting the stay.

    I requested both CCA Request (to claimant) and CPR 31.14 Request (to claimants solicitors) and is been all most 3 weeks and they still haven't been able to provide it, i received letter from them saying i should give them 28 days.

    What should i do

    Thanks

    nothing the court rules from now on, it is up to them whether they supply now or later in the case, your defence should of gone off 2 days before due date as to stop them trashing it (hopefully they cannot at this stage) what did you put in your defence? and tell us what it is all about the case??? ask on here before you respond to any correspondence as you can make a big mistake not knowing,, also read other threads and see the procedure court run?

    28 days is to respond to defence

    CCA is 12+ 2 before unenforceable, but case can go on as they can if they have it supply later in case CPR31,14 did you state requested in defence?, and did you read instruction top right of court cases how to do things
