  • Help! No response from CPR request and deadline looming??

    Hi,

    I've started a new thread because I'm not sure anyone has read my last couple of responses on the original thread:

    http://www.legalbeagles.info/forums/...usiness-Centre

    Basically, I sent a CPR request to BW Legal (solicitor for Lowell Finance) but they haven;t responded yet and the deadline is looming for my defence.

    The original claim was issued on the 6th May so the service date is 5 days after that - 11th May.

    With 28 days to respond with a defence I think I need to file something in the next day or two but what do I do??

    I really don't want to admit the debt (about £500 with added costs) but I'd rather that than a CCJ.

    Please read the thread at the link above for more information if you need it.

    Thanks,

    Paul.

    Well you can settle, defend or make an application for disclosure.

    An application should work and has for some. It doesn't always work though.

    Have you identified a defence ?

    What would be a good, workable, settlement for you ?

      What is an application for disclosure?

      I want to see why they think I owe them money, as far as I was concerned I'd finished out the contract and settled all monies outstanding. The documents I requested in the CPR should tell me that.

      As the deadline is very soon, will an application for disclosure allow me the time I need to get the documents?

        It is an application to the court to order the claimant to supply the documents they intend to rely on. See this: http://www.legalbeagles.info/forums/...424#post410424

        You'd need to submit the application BEFORE the deadline to file your defence, and it will cost you £155 which you could get waived if you are on benefits or on a low income. :thumb:
