Please help! Distress Warrent sent too early?

Re: Please help! Distress Warrent sent too early?

You are completely correct about the posting times that are allowed for under CPR 6.3 and I agree with you that the earliest it could have been issued was 18th March.

However, even if the Distress Warrant had been issued on the correct date (18th March), you did not actually pay it until 21st March.

So I fail to see how arguing semantics is going to help.

Hi Amy, Thanks for the reply. Does the fact not remain though that the Distress Warrant, was issued too early so has no legal basis?

Hypothetically speaking "if" the warrant was issued on the 18th March the payment on the 21st would have ben too late but the distress warrant was issued on the 16th, too early as allowed by the legislation to be properly served and legally valid?

I understand the court cannot accept money once a Distress Warrant has been issued and cannot recall one but if the Warrant in question does not comply will all relevant legislation in respect of being properly served, surely it cannot be enforced?

Many thanks
