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.
Ok so went through the whole proccess MCOL, cahoot filled a defence.
Then got transfered to my local court, (Oxford county court), had a letter saying that orders of allocation questionnaires will be dispensed.
So waiting for my AQ got another letter today,
"Disctrict Judge XXX has considered the allocation questionaires filled and allocated a hearing. - No AQ questionaire sent or received!!
The hearing will take place at 14:00 pm the 15 August 2007.
Each party shall deliver to every party andf the court office copies of all documents on which he intendts to rely at the hearing no laten than the 17th May 2007.
Now what? what do I file / send off, Copies of my statements? summary of charges? and an explanation about charges?
Ok court date is tommorow, I rang the court today and they said that the defence (Abbey) have failed to supply a skeleton argument and as such the defence is stuck out, and that I can request to vacate the hearing and apply for a judgment in default, can someone shed some light on this?
Shall I do that or should I go to court and get a ruling?
Also my cheeky bank rang me and told me as a result of the High court case FSA vs Banking alliance that my case had been stayed! yet contacting the court this was utter crap!
Good luck tomorrow mate. I'm following with interest now as my local court is Oxford too. I'm not there till Oct 5th. Fingers crossed you get the judgement.
Ok so I put some updates in other peoples Threads, but basically I got the judgment.
Then when I rang Cahoot, they said ring Abbey and vice versa.
Eventually I got through to the Abbey legal department, they said they will be ignoring the Judgment as a result of the ongoing test case and that I will have to wait.
I very much doubt they can ignore a court judgement! so Whats the next step? I guessed that once I had the rulling they would pay up, but now they are being plain ignorant! Is there a waiting period before I can get a Warrant? if so how do I go about it?
Ok one day after I started the ball rolling on a warrant and after 3 letters and 5 phone calls a nice cheque from Abbey arrived today "without prejudice"
