    if you read some other threads, it seems they are sometimes a couple of days late and the courts allow it.

    Hi, If i was you i would phone the court on Monday to confirm that a defence has not been filed as sometimes if you are checking online it is not always updated straight away.

    Check your dates. Its a total of 33 days from when the claim is issued (including the 5 days to serve the claim). If the final day falls on a weekend they get the next working day as well.
    The Defendant is allowed 14 days from the date they were served with the claim to defend or admit your claim before you can request a Judgment by Default.
    If the Defendant files an Acknowledgement of Service within 14 days of receiving the claim form, they will be entitled to 28 days from the date they were served with the claim form to file a defenceicon or admission of your claim. If the Defendent does not file a defence or admission within the 28 days you can request a Judgment by Default.

    Unhappy oh no done something wrong

    Please help
    Was sure i had done everything write put in claim with mcol (this is where i went wrong i think) Then when i received there defence last week got a bit worried by the wording
    There Defence:
    ""1. The particulars of claim do not provide details of the account in question or the precise charges alleged to have been unlawful, or the date thereof. Furthermore they give no recognisable cause of action, nor is there sufficient material to enable Barclaysicon to serve more than a bare denial of liability as a defence. The statement of case would appear to be an abuse of process and or will obstruct the jst disposal of the proceedings and it does not appear to comply with cpr r16.2."

    There are 6 other point they have added but i think they are the norm. Then today from my local court i got.

    " General Form Of Judgment or Order" Which says" It is ordered that
    1. The claim be stayed as it makes no serious attempt to comply with CPR16.4(1) by setting out a concise statement of the facts.(Stylised particulars do not constitute compliance. The claimant must amend or substitute its particulars of the claim settind out the claimants case in plain english by 8thMay 2007 and in default the claim be struck out without further notice.
    if the above order is complied with the defendant has permission to file and serve an amended defence in accordance with CPR16.5 setting out it claim in plain English.
    2. claimant shall pay allocation fee of £100.00 by 4pm on 1st May2007.

    What have i done
    what do i do now?????
    Pleeease help
