Hi all,
New to the forum, so hoping I have put my first post in the correct location.
I have a few queries I was hoping could be answered.
I am in the process of taking a seller to court for selling me goods which weren't fit for the purpose for which they were described. I have had a pre trial hearing and could not reach any settlement with the defendant, so it is going to a fast track hearing.
In the pre hearing the defendant stated he did NOT wish to use expert evidence of his own at the trial. I am using two experts written evidence. The defendant has been in communication with a professional Mr X (who has already given us a written statement), who we have stated to the court we are including written expert evidence from him.............is the defendant allowed to use Mr X as a witness, and is he allowed to discuss the case with the Mr X before the trial?
Other query is, originally on the AQ, I selected small claims and the judge has moved it to fast track.......does that mean I can revise the costs of my claim and include additional costs I will incur by keeping the goods until the trial?
If anyone can help answer that it would be greatly appreciated.
