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.
after returning allocation q. for 26.08.06 and having to wait over a month for a court date finally came thru for 24 Oct.....is it just me or is that super quick????? had expected early new year. Tt's manchester county court by the way and the case is to be shared with another defendant by the name of Gayle Horrocks....anyone on this forum???
Also i see the day for return of any documents i will be relying on is the day before the hearing....is that normal??
The finish line is in site!!!!!! woooooo
right sorry for the wait.....the letter from the courts say hearing allocated to small claims track.....shall take place 14:30 0n 24th Oct 2006 at Manchester CC...................each party shall by 23 Oct serve on the other copies of documents on which they intend to rely upon at the hearing, neither claimant is required to serve documents on the other. I thought 2 weeks was given between docs going to defendant and court date......not a day!!!!!
I spoke to case mangement section and he said it is odd as you normally have 14days between serving docs and court date. The case is with mediation team at the mo and wont come back for another week maybe so he said phone back then.. As for "neither claimant serving documents on each other".....that refers to the fact there are two claimants in the same hearing, i dont need to serve docs on her. I have my documents ready to send nearly....do you think case would get postponed so as to allow the 14 days????
As long as you do your part - collate and send the documentation as directed - you're O.K. If the dates are wrong it's the court that's made the mistake leave it to them to sort it out.
Listen, at the end of it, even if it's 1 day, it's the LATEST to swap info.
SO what you do is, collate your bundle now, (as per thread in Library), and send it on. If Barclays dont do theirs, that's not your problem. Odds are they'll pay up before they have to send info anyway, what with the 24 hours before thing ;-)
Apologies to people who I was in the process of helping, I may be gone some time.
Yep thats wot i've done...nice big fat bundle of docs now to send off...just need binding then off they go.....19 days and counting
I've noticed the amount of settlements has been steadily rising over the last few weeks so hopefully i will be joining the list shortly. Surely the courts must be pressing for a test case with the amount of claims going through now and the numbers only going to get larger.
Court 8 days and counting.....squeaky bum time!!!! Will i have the pleasure of being the guinea pig or will Barclays fail to show in Court if i dont get a letter off Keith this week????
Gayle Horrocks also in same hearing .....if your a user of this site we could celebrate in the pubs round town afterwards!!!!!
