Do you think the judge will see my correspondence beforethe 25th? as it’s within the 10 day period of them replying. Should I leave it at that for them to let they make a decision onthe day? Again thanks forall your help

Citizen Thanks, Yesthey ticked the box. I contacted the Small Claims Mediation Clerk as the Courthad sent out a pamphlet with the court papers on how to start mediation. When Ispoke to them they sent out the paper work I filled it in, and then I was toldto wait 14 days for them to take up the offer of mediation as it is voluntary.

Hi all, 14 day are up the mediation that was requested theydid not reply to. Do I have to notify the court to make them aware as the judgemade it a direction on point 14? Any help most appreciated

Was a bit concerned about how long thing were taking and mywife would have to have her money stopped till the out come of the tribunal, asthey stated that they would not have to deal with my wife till mid-October. If shewon then back dated is no consolation, spoke to our local MP within a couple ofdays she has now received a date for the hearing. Could be a coincidence? Will keepyou informed.

Update, Still a bit confused if judge has asked the courtstaff on point 14, to refer to mediation as one party has requested this. Whydo they keep telling me that mediation is voluntary (surely not voluntary asthe judge has asked for it) and now I have to wait 14 days as both parties needto consent? Why have they not filled in the form for mediation?

DD Yep, they requested mediator The card was taken out in the 1990s. Final payment Sept 2010 Proceedings by MKDP LLP Original Barclaycard

The following Directions apply to this claim: Point 14) Note to court staff: At least one of theparties has requested that the case be referred to the small claims mediator. Pleaserefer the case to the small claims mediator. Do I now have to use this service as it’s in the judge’s directions?

So worst case after 365 day no money loses appeal no more money or is there anything she can do?

My wife applied for disability living allowance in April2009 she was assisted with the form filling by the CAB She had a medical 19 April 2010 on the 27 April shereceived a letter from DWP stating she was not entitled to DLA and how theyreached their decision. CAB told my wife she should appeal 6/5/2010 sent off anappeal received a reply 16/7/2010 stating the decision is upheld. On the 10th August she received a letter from ATOSwith an appointment for another medical on the 30th August. No other correspondence until she received a letter fromthe job centre plus stating that she had been put on the WRAG group 13/09/2012and they would wright to her with a date for an interview. Interviewed on 31/10/2012. The guy she saw said she shouldn’tbe in the WRAG she should have been put in the Support group. He asked here whyshe hadn’t appealed. Her reply was that she had not received any other correspondence. He gave her a reconsideration and appeal process leafletto complete a GL24 form. She sent that off same day 31/10/2012. Nothing back tosay they had received her form. Next letter dated 14/2/2012 saying the enclosed theappeal papers these papers give the reason for our decision. We have sent a copyof the same information and your appeal letter to the tribunal service they willget in touch with you to explain what happens next with the appeal. She has spoken with the CAB 7/3/2013 and they haveadvised her that she is to inform them of a tribunal date. If that takes 18 monthdoes that mean she will be without any money?
