If the whole amount for the year has become due and payment is not made in full, you will be summonsed to the Magistrates' Court where the Authority will apply for a Liability Order. A summons is a legal notice requiring that your case appear before the Magistrates' Court. You are entitled to attend Court; however, there is no need to do so unless you dispute that you are liable to pay the Non-Domestic Rates. Please note, inability to pay is not a defence.

 

 

Valid defences are:

  • You are not liable for the period as stated on the demand notice.
  • The Non Domestic Rate has not been demanded in accordance with the statutory regulations.
  • The amount demanded has been paid in full.
  • More than six years has elapsed since the day on which the charge became due.
  • Bankruptcy (including Individual Voluntary Arrangements) receivership or winding up proceedings have been initiated.

I am not sure if that also means voluntarily winding up or an order for winding up.
