Dear All,
I would be grateful for your assistance on a Court Claim received today.
Received a claim? YES
Issue Date: 20th Feb 2017
Amount approx: £2260 including fees
Claimant: Marks and Spencer PLC
Solicitor: Coltman Warner Cranston LLP
Original Creditor:
Particulars of Claim: The Claimant's Claim is for the sum of £1,952.94 due to the Claimant from the Defendant from 07/05/2016 to 07/05/2016 in respect of an over-payment of salary paid to the Defendant by the Claimant, full particulars of which have been provided to the Defendant before the action commenced.
The Claimant further claims interest at the rate of 8% per annum under Section 69 of the County Courts Act 1984 calculates at £123.41 from 07/05/2016.
And the Claimant further claims interest under the above Act at the rate of £00.43 per day from the date of Issue of the Claim until Judgement or earlier payment.
Claimant's Claim £2076.35
Is the debt Statute Barred?
List any letters you have sent: Acknowledgement of Service (Defend)
Any Other Info: I may have previously worked for Marks and Spencer PLC, however have had no knowledge or evidence of the alleged over-payment of salary. The particulars are very vague and have not ever received any evidence of this claim or of the alleged over-payment. No employment contract/evidence/payslips/breakdown the over-payment has ever been produced. Furthermore, no evidence from Coltman Warner Cranston LLP has been provided confirming the authenticity of their acting on behalf of Marks and Spencer PLC. I have never had any arrangements with Warner Cranston LLP and do not owe them any funds.
Thus far I have only sent my Acknowledgement of Service of Defend via the online form. I am planning to send a CPR request to the solicitor's ASAP after I obtain a postal order from the Post Office (does it need to be addressed to the solicitor?) However there is no mention of a contract/agreement/documents in the above particulars, what should I ask for within the CPR request? I would really appreciate any advice/help you can provide for my defence going forward as I feel this is unjust as no evidence has been provided.
Many thanks in advance.
