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.
Just recieved a defence doument from Wragg's defending the claim outling all the details ect; any one know if I have to respond to this document or not ??.
No court date either? hoping for an improved offer before the 16th June deadline.
PS: The Court says Northampton county court, I assumed it was going to be in Birmingham, do i have to go to Northampton if we get to court stage???
This would depend really on if you have filed your claim or not.
If you have filed then an amendment would cost you £35 and is not recoverable, if you haven't filed then you can amend figures up to the date of filing claim.
Well I have the court date of 14 Aug and are now about to send to the court and Wraggs the full court bundle ect: So can I send the new figure or not????
if you wish to amend your claim figure-
you will need to complete Forms N1 and N244
which are downloadable from this site.
If you go ahead with your amendment,
and as you now have a Court Date for
14 August,
you will need to send these two forms
to your local Court with a cheque for £35.
if you need any more help,
just post another message and someone
will come along to give you some help
me again,
just looking at your figures
it may not be financially viable
for you to complete the forms
seeing as the difference is only £47.72
£ 130.18 less £ 82.76 = £47.72 extra monies to be claimed back
but: cheque to court would be £35.00
meaning you would only be £12.42 better off ? !
You might be best speaking with the court
direct, and asking if they will let the figures
stand as they are, or whether you still need
to complete Forms N1 and N244,
in view of the small amount involved.
It says, District Judge has considered the statements of case allocation questionaires filed and allocated the claim to the small claims court.
Each party shall deliver to every other party and to the court office copies of all documents (including any expert report) on which he intends to rely at the hearing no later than 14 days before the hearing.
The original documents to be brought to the hearing.

With regard to the interest it was at the time on 11June when I wrote to Wraggs £82.11, but as I am filling in the spread sheet to send to the court at todays date the interest figure has gone up, so I unsure which one to use. The £82.11 which I was claiming on the 11th June
or I use the uptodate figure at todays date.
Yes, the interest varies according to which date you work it out on
I'd stick with your original one, or it will only complicate matters. Thinking about it, I would say you'd probably HAVE to stick with the original amount of interest, as that's what it was when you instigated your claim.
Didn't we all send our statements when we registered the claims in the first place?Do we have to send them again as the court and the bank already have copies they can look at.In fact that is what they must look at to file a defence.:?
I didnt send the statements when I registered the claim, I shall just send the ones with the charges on when I send my bundle of other stuff to the courts to be sure.
