Possibly give the court a call again just to check they haven't received something there and that the hearing is still going ahead. In answer to your other Q, if it is going ahead, definitely go to it !

Thanks for answering. Yes there were those precise directions. I spent £14 on overnight delivery for the court and the solicitors, and emailed both aswell.

So far i have spent hours putting together my defence, taken annual leave, probably around another £15 on postage and postal orders and parking tomorrow will be £7.50 for 3 hours

hours spent probably amount to 25 plus tomorrow work hours i lose.

Ill phone them now. I will be very unhappy if the court managers has her papers and i have nothing! It will prob get adjourned, so they mess me around again, and i use annual leave again ( btw this leave was set aside for my wedding, they are messing up my wedding leave!)

Re: County court papers received out of blue from lowell

Goodness really? They'd never pay me that back surely?
is there a maximum? Whilst ive spent ages on this, i dont want to take the pee and risk not getting anything back.


The court is closed now so i will have to ring them in the morning. Friday will be fun, i have physio on my hip so ill be hobbling in on my walking stick like an old witch!

Do we know if lowells have a habit of not turning up?

It could,be they take a chance on the hearing fee thinking the LIP wil cave in in the 11th hour. I dont know, just clutching at straws ( a fine album too btw)

Re: County court papers received out of blue from lowell

There is a maximum yes. I think, if i recall correctly, a limit of 2/3 of the cost a solicitor would charge.

Re: County court papers received out of blue from lowell

Gotcha thanks. So should i list 25 hours x £18. Plus work time of 4 hours x£18 (leave im taking). Parking at £7.50. 2x registered post, 2x postal orders, 2x £6.15 on overnight delivery of evidence.

Cant see me getting much if that back from them.

Re: County court papers received out of blue from lowell

If you can explain 25 hours then yes.

The court might try and give you £90 for a working day but that is standard and you're asking them to use powers they have when 1 party behaved unreasonably

Re: County court papers received out of blue from lowell

In all honesty i think 25 hours would be a very low figure given the amount of reading i have had to do in order to write my defence but id be happy to get back my out of pocket expenses and the working hours i will lose. As i say, its all coming out of the leave i have saved for my wedding .

I think they other side have been unreasonable too, they never answer letters or provide documents they are supposed to provide, they don't follow the correct practice direction, have ignored the DJs direct orders and they (probably) know that they wont be turning up on friday and to hell with letting anyone know. Cowboys!!

Re: County court papers received out of blue from lowell

Don't forget to take that evidence with you and tell the judge. Of course that's if they don't turn up. It can also apply if they do turn up too!

I say the judge twisted normal law and twisted it beyond breaking point. It actually goes against the BPA code of practice and as members the have to follow that or breach CPUTR 2008. Admitting to that breach in court is an interesting move !
