Hello,
Due to new facts coming to light at a relatively late stage, I was wondering how straightforward it is to discontinue a claim against one defendant who is willing to let this happen on a drop hands basis (baring all his own costs), and then add a new defendant to my existing small claim? There is 4.5 weeks until the court hearing and I would be grateful to know the exact way I could go about this. I am aware this will likely cost me and most likely delay the hearing, however I would like to get all issues resolved in this one claim rather than having to issue a new claim against the a new defendant. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thank you
