Hi everyone,
I wonder if anyone can help me?
A company started legal action against us for the balance of money they felt we owed them for the supply and fit of a pre fabricated building. I was in the process of submitting our defence and submitting counter claim due to extremely poor workmanship. (We obtained an independent part 35 expert report done by an appropriate expert that was very much in our favour) However the company in question recently had a winding up petition issued against them by the HMRC. The company then put forward a CVA proposal which was rejected this week, so they will now have to close the company by way of administration/liquidation. Can you please tell me what happens to the court case they have filed against us? There seems to be a lot of information online about court cases filed against insolvent companies, but no information when it is the company that started action before going into liquidation/administration. I understand the liquidators will now try to recover the money from us, but my query is specific to the court case. Do I have to apply to have the case discontinued? Thank you very much.
