Re: Need Help Writing a Fully Pleaded Defence

1. Given that the rules require you to try to settle the claim before the hearing, do you want to attempt to settle at this stage. (yes or no)
2. If yes, do you want a one month stay? (yes or no)
3. If you answered 'no' to question 1, please state the reasons why you consider it inappropriate to try settle the claim at this stage.

That is the first page

Re: Need Help Writing a Fully Pleaded Defence

Yes this is being heard in a more formal court setting ( Fast Track)

So. A. settlement:

1 Do you want to settle without a hearing? My feeling is No.

Do you think its inappropriate to attempt to settle? Answer ?? Your ideas ??

B1. Your nearest CC Hearing Centre.

B2 Trial Yes

Your nearest CC Hearing Centre/ C Court because this hearing follows from a Judgement set aside on date.

Pre Action Protocols not relevant to this hearing.

D. Case Management: Have you made any applications e.g. for the claim to be struck out? If not state no.

D2. N/a


D3. N/A

D 4. That the claimant discloses the Following Documents.
The Agreement relative to the alleged debt
The Notice Of Assignment
The Default Notice.
Unequivocal written proof that the alleged debt is not statute barred.


E. Expert Witnesses No to all parts.
E. cont. N/A.

F. No Witnesses Apart from yourself.

G. Time of FH One Day ( the claimant may say different)

G. Book Holidays etc. if any.

H. N/A

I. Other Information

Any application ?? No.#

Re: Need Help Writing a Fully Pleaded Defence

Thank you sooo much [MENTION=55034]nemesis45[/MENTION] , i will now make my way through this. On the first questions,do you want to settle without a hearing, what reason do i give for not wanting to settle at this stage? My only thought is that i want to be given the opportunity to have the case struck out. But i guess i cant put that, or there is a better way of putting it.

You can put in the Directions section that you intend to apply for the claim to be struck out, but my opinion is that you need to hear /see what the claimant has to say before making such an application.

The judge here seems to be very fair and reasonable.

Re: Need Help Writing a Fully Pleaded Defence

Oh, ok as simple as that. I think i doubt myself because and make things more complicated than they need to be. Then as soon as you say it, it think 'of course it is'

I think a lot of the time we see what we want to see ( usually the worst scenario) e.g. DCA letters saying we may/might when we see WILL.
