Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
I have received in today's post which i'm hoping you can hopefully help me with; a letter from my local county court which reads as follows: IT IS ORDERED THAT
The claim be stayed as it makes no serious attempt to comply with CPR 16.4(1) by setting out a concise statement of the facts. (Stylised particulars do not constitute compliance). The claimant must ammend or substitute the particulars of claim by setting out the case and by including details of the charges complained of, how they are calculated and in what circumstances they were incurred.
The claimant should note that sending copy correspondence and/or copies of bank statements will not suffice.
The claimant has until 4pm on 7th August 2007 to comply with this order. In default the claim be struck out without further notice.
They have only given me 9 working days from today - for me to sort out a response as you can see from above. The problem is I don't know what or how to respond to this. Prior to starting this thread I looked through the AQ & stay section within the forum but it seems the threads etc relate to old ways of court procedures i.e AQ's & 1 month stay orders inconjunction with AQ's. My previous order from the court was to inform me an AQ is not necessary for my particular claim.
What I did do prior to receiving the above in today's mail was to write to the court manager with the draft order for directions letter along with the 'letter to court manager' covering letter. I thought that from that point it would be a case of waiting for the court date itself, & now this??
I'm truly flummoxed by today's letter & am wondering if any of you know what I have to do next. I have a planned short holiday abroad tomorrow for 5 days & am quite desperate for your kind help due to the very short time the court has given me to reply :-|
Thank you very much in advance for any possible assistance.
I used the MCOL standard template found within moneysaving expert website at the beginning of the whole process, which is limited to just 1080 characters with a maximum of 24 lines. Apologies to you christina as I'm not at home with my personal case book as i call it, which has all the details of what I have sent & what I have received & can't at mo be more forthcoming with the details.
i'd say whatever you have put as your POC is incorrect, and that is why the judge has come back as he has.
have a look in the templates library and see if the poc in there is the same as you have used, if not dont worry it can be changed
