I am trying to get my head round CPR 20 Additional Claims and would appreciate advice
Please correct me if I am wrong in my understanding
The defendant has to get court permission to serve an additional claim on a person or company that is not a party to proceedings if the additional claim is not made at the time their defence is submitted
Notice is not required meaning the claimant may be unaware the defendant has sought the court's permission
The defendant has to wait for a court order to serve the additional claim
The defendant files the claim form N211 and sends the second defendant the claim form, response forms, and original Particulars of Claim, Defence and Reply to Defence
The defendant sends a copy of N211 to the claimant
What happens if the second defendant does not respond?
Is a Part 20 claim necessary in a Section 75 claim where the claimant is claiming against the creditor for the breach of contract by a supplier?
Does CCA 74 Section 75 (2) provide an indemnity to cover the creditor's loss meaning that a court claim is not required?
Thanks for any advice
