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've just had my claim stayed today at Croydon county court. The Judge was very down to earth and explained that all case were being stayed under application because of the Wilson v Robertson case. He did however say that he has refused the stay in cases where the claimant was in receipt of state benefit. I didn't go this route at the time because I am currently not receiving any state benefits. However, once I got back into the office, I realised that during the period of my claim, I have been in receipt of working family tax credit and a few weeks of job seeker's allowance payments. Therefore my question is, do I have to be in receipt state benefit at the time of applying for a removal of the stay, or can I apply as my claim includes a period of time when I was receiving working family tax credits?
