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 just been reading a thread that recommends ringing the court to extend the stay. My General Form of Judgment states the following. It was made in October 2008 so should I have contacted the court and is it now too late?
IT IS ORDERED THAT
1: This case is stayed with immediate effect pending the final determination of the case in the commercial court. Any listed hearings in this case are vacated and will not take place.
2: Either Party may apply to the Court to lift the stay. Any application must be served on teh other party and be supported by evidence why the case should proceed before the determination of the Commercial Court case.
3: Unless the Court has given directions in the meantime the defendants must apply on notice tot he Court for directions not later than 3 months after the determination of the Commercial Court case.
4: This order having been made on the Courts own Initiative, eitehr party may apply to vary or revoke it provided the application is made not later than 7 days after service of the order.
... out... in... out... I'm shaking it all about...

Re: General Form of Judgment or Order
It looks like yours is one of the open ended ones, without a date. If you call the Court to confirm the current status of your claim I'm sure they will confirm for you, though.
Always happy to help where I can!
Beware of legal advice given on a private forum - do you REALLY know who is posting? Are they REALLY accountable for their posts? What if you follow their advice and get something wrong?
