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.
We are awaiting a court date for our claim against Barclaycard and have received a 'General Form of Judgement or Order' from our county court.
It says:
"Before District Judge xxx sitting at xxx County Court. Upon reading the court file it is ordered that
1. The Claimant must by 4pm xxx October 2006 identify the dates and amounts of its charges challeged.
2. The parties are to consider whether this claim should be stayed pending a decision and decisions in other similar cases".
With regards to the 1st request, we have already supplied both Barclaycard and the County Court (with the Allocation Questionnaire) with details of the charges claimed but will send it again!
However, the 2nd request confuses me. I know a lot of the judges have been ordering that cases be stayed, but our judge says "consider whether this claim shoud be stayed". Excuse me being thick but does that mean he has left it up to us, and we could write back saying we have considered staying the claim but dont wish to, give us a court date please??
A word of advice from a moderator would be gratefully received - don't want to stuff it up when we are so near!

Re: Lolly v Barclaycard - strange order from judge
I think its an invitation to make a case for not having the case stayed rather than asking you what you want.
And send the court another copy of the schedule of charges.

PS i think its Barclays cases which have been transferred to mercantile court. Do they state the case or court they are thinking of?
