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.
Having sent in my aq, have received order for directions stating, as with the member who issued in Lincoln, that "The Court of its own motion is considering striking out the Defence as an abuse of process. The basis for this is the fact that the Defendant is settling all claims of this nature where Claimants are seeking the reimbursement of bank charges with no claims proceeding to a contested hearing......."
Should I try calling the Woolwich to see if they will settle now or should I wait the 14 days given by the Court to see if the produce the schedule (which I assume they won't) and then let the Court strike out the defence?
Great news for you bunglebin, could I ask which court this was?
