Hi, Scampjet,

What sort of hearing is it? (I have skimmed your thread so apologies if I've missed it!).

Hi Blossomandebony and thanks responding,

Notice is headed:-

Notice of Allocation tthe Small Claims Track (Hearing)

No other info other than:-
"The judge has considered the statments of case and allocation questionairs filed and and allocated the claim to the small claims track"

It then just says for each party to send documents to court by 03. All witness statments to be filed and bring original documents to court.

Hi, scampjet,


The Consumer Forums

This is a really good link which explains what different types of hearings require etc. If you're not sure if it is the Final hearing or a Preliminary hearing, I would phone the court to ask.

If it is the final hearing you will need to prepare a court 'Bundle' containing all details of the case and your defence, case law etc etc, but if it is a preliminary hearing you basically state your case to the judge so that they can clarify what the final hearing will be about - a simple witness statement would suffice.

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Phone call today from CL's solicitors........They are going to discontinue proceedings!

Now I know I will have to wait for writen confirmation and until I get a letter from the court, assume it could be a ploy to get me to not turn up (not that I,m suspicious) but on the face of it........RESULT!!

I could not have argued this claim without all the input and knowledge I have recieved and I thank you all again.

Firstly, he explianed what the case had been about (as if I did'nt Know) and said that having reviewed the file and contacted hsbc who confirmed that the account had been closed and therefore they would not be continuing OR re-starting a claim for the managed loan account! (as long as I kept making payments through a third party (DMP).

I said that it was obvious from the phone call that they would not win at court and therefore as they cannot enforce the debt I would way up my options and take advice before commenting regarding any balance. He then re-iterated that I knew there was a debt to pay and repeated that as long as I kept paying they would take no further action.

Asked him what action they would take as they obvoiusly can't enforce the debt..............He just repeated the statment. So I thanked him and said I'd look forward to recieving confirmation.

What we'll do when we get it depends on the way its worded but on the face of it....................... another little victory for us all!

Thanks again,

scampjet.

Hi Paul,
No problem....you have been fantastic and verrrrrrrrrry busy!

It is a great relief and from your quick response I can see that your are watching and following all you can.

I will wait and see what the letter brings first and I will post any updates. We now have to decide on what action to take as regard stopping the DMP and taking control finally of our lives again! But rest assured we are alot more capable thanks to CAG!

Don't mean I wont be asking you for advice again though!
