HELP PLEASE WITH COUNTY COURT CLAIM - lantern dedt recovery/moriarty law ltd

[echat11]

Okay i have received some of the documents that was requested not all of them but they've provided the original credit agreement now so I'm probably best making an agreement to pay as the judge will probably sidecwithbyhem now

They should provide all the documents requested. What have they sent?
You've received the agreement, have you received the Default Notice and Letter of Assignment?

I take it you've sent off the Directions Questionnaire?

okay so this has now been transferred to my local court with a hearing date of 7th november

the claimant has not sent me all the documents i requested but have now sent the documents they are going to rely on in court which is a witness statement from the solicitors moriarty law that has 11 points or facts they believe tobe true about this case and loan

then they have sent 22 pages of a fixed loan agreement called standard european consumer credit agreement

they have sent a fixed sum loan agreement regulated by the consumer credit act 1974

also provided copies of the letters they sent to me when they took over the debt and a final demand before proceedings

upon inspecting the documents they have provided it has reminded me as they have sent a detailed log of all payments and i originally loaned 100 on 18th january but by the 2nd febuary i had payed that loan off thats the loan thats on all paperwork.

i then borrowed a further 400 or 500 its hard to tell from the paperwork with charges added but thats the loan i couldntafford and they would have known had they checked but they never and i suppose thats why quickquid was done for bad lending

Did you prepare and send off a Witness Statement?

When completed, it needs to be sent to the Court (can be emailed) and the Claimants solicitors, make sure you get Proof of Postage.

You need to go through everything they've sent and prepare notes for the Hearing, so you can raise these matters during the Hearing.

I would do a Witness Statement and email it to the Court and the other side, if you don't attend the Hearing you will lose.

Okay so I couldn't attend the court hearing I took the afternoon off work and all the trains was on strike so I couldn't travel the 25 miles to get to court,I called the courts and explained the situation and receptionist said would tell the judge I couldn't attend.

So as you explained as I didn't attend I lost the case and I got a letter this morning saying as both parties didn't attend I've lost and must pay within 2 weeks.

Would I be able to appeal this decision,ive lost my job on friday so ironically i know can attend anytime or is it to little to late from me

O.K., not to worry, it's done.They (the Court) needed notice, so could of rescheduled the case.

I wouldn't bother appealing. But what you can do is send / email their solicitors / creditor an Income and Expenditure form. Make sure you take account of the 'cost of living'. If you can only afford to pay £5 a month, so be it.

OK well that's strange the court made no mention of reschedule the date I had called the court the week before and explained I was having difficulty attending due to work commitments and the travel issues but the reception lady said she can't offer legal advice but I should do my best to attend or I will lose the case if dont come but no mention of reschedule the date

OK I'm going to speak with citizens advice but I don't think a payment plan is an option as I need to pay within 2 weeks to avoid the ccj going on My credit file for 6 years
