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.
The Judge sitting at the Courthouse considered the papers in the case and ordered that
1) The claim is transfered to the Mercantile Court.
2) The claims are reserved for all purposes to His Honour Judge ______.
3) because this order has been made by the court without considering representation from the parties, the parties have the right to apply to have the order set aside, varied or stayed. A party wishing to make an application must send or deliver the application to the courts (together with any appropriate fee) to arrive within 7 days of service of the order.

Ever had that feeling "WHY US?"???? we are only mere mortals with 4 kids and a bump.
I am going to try and argue that our case should be heard in the county court. We are not Big Business our total claim is for 4.5k. We cannot afford the big court.
