Re: After 3 years, a court date for my case
Hi guys, don't know if you remember me, lol left employment Dec 2014, had a call from police to state employer had accused me of theft of some money. I answered ask questions to police, who then dropped the case through no evidence. They then have taken steps to issue me with a county court small claims court for obscene amount of damages and monies missing. During for £4700 allegedly stolen PLUS fees, mounting to total of over £7000. I denied the claim , obviously, but now have a court date of 16 May 2017, a mere two plus years after the fact!! I have now had 2 jobs since then, and have a clean bill of health with both, as d I did with 3 previously. The woman concerned, had accused me of theft in a previous role a few years prior, and that again was thrown out!! The letter states, that they have to pay a fee £335, be for April and send me a list of witnesses, prior to court hearing. I myself, have lost contact with all other staff members, so am on my own!Comment

Re: After 3 years, a court date for my case
I'm sure you already sent a defence... ? so this is the next stages... have you had anything from the claimants at all in between times... ? This has taken a longggggg time to get round to Hearing Fee and Witness Statements. Did you write to them asking for the evidence ? I assume the April date is for witness statements and evidence documents as that's usually a couple weeks before the hearing.
I'll have a read back through your old thread xxx http://legalbeagles.info/forums/show...urt-claim-**** and we're best carrying on there really.
If you can upload a copy of what you have had from the court and or the claimant in betweeny times that would be a marvellous help.#staysafestayhome
