Request for the bank's defence to be struck out
Has anybody from here tried this ( using the N244form http://www.hmcourts-service.gov.uk/H...t_forms_id=484 ) ?
Having read about how the courts are fed up with the antics of the banks, settling at the last minute and not turning up, is this now - for the sake of all future claimants as well as ourselves - the best course of action to take?

Also, from BBC NEWS | Business | Lloyds wins second charges case :
At Worcester county court, a judge recently told one bank charges claimant, David Huckerby, in whose favour he had just ruled, that this was the 50th time that a bank - also Lloyds TSB - had failed to turn up before him and he was now getting "thoroughly fed up".
These are the latest among a growing number of judicial criticisms. In recent months, similar comments have been made by judges in Lincoln, Leeds, Bristol and even the Mercantile Court in London, a branch of the High Court.
My case is due to be heard at Bristol in early August in a "block list" (this due, presumably, to the banks getting right on their nerves by settling late and/or not turning up at all). I assume the judges are now keen to settle against the banks?
Could this be a good time to piggy-back the courts' annoyance with the banks and give them the easy way out of ruling against the banks without the need for all the paperwork and time wasted?
