I started CPR part 8 claim against landlord for not protecting tenancy deposit. Landlord filed acknowledgement of service late after passing 14 days and now 28 days have passed and defendant not filed any defence.
I called court to get an update and court officer told me that I can send a request for judgment as defendant not filed any defence.
I think default judgments don't work in part 8 claims. Is this true ? Does court would arrange a hearing and I have to go for hearing even no defence or I would get a judgment without hearing?
Thanks for your help.
