Court tomorrow

[SiliconChippy]

Hi all,

I just wanted to say thankyou for all the great advice, especially Rory32 for his Scotland specific advice.
As I said in the title I am going to court tomorrow, I am nervous. If it wasn't for these forums I wouldn't have planned attending at all, I would have hidden. But I have learnt here that it is time to stand up and question things and that is exactly what I plan to do tomorrow.
I will let you know how I get on.

Best of luck Chris. Hope you do well. Is this just the initial hearing?

Thank-you Rory, yes it's the initial hearing. Out of the blue, I was given a summary cause warrant to attend court over an alledged debt from about 3 years ago. It's from a credit card, but the debt has been sold on. I am awaiting a CCA, because I need to find the original lender so that I can apply for itemised statements because I have never owed that much.
I am just really asking for more time to get specific details of the debt today. It's a good time to get it sorted out because I am currently unemployed, and have no assets.

Just an update to let you all know that court went fine. I think that the pursuer was hoping that I wouldn't attend. I just got the impression that they wanted me to admit to the debt even though I don't think it's mine. All the paperwork seemed poor and didn't give enough detail.
I am to wait a few months while they get together all the information that I have asked for. Then I presume that they will invite me back to court. However, that's only if they can produce all the information.

So I am off the hook at the moment. A huge thank-you to everyone on these boards.

Chris
