I have a direction hearing at the mercantile court in Leeds soon and I have not heard of any alliance and leicester cases going to merc.
Does anyone know of any which have gone down this track?
Just wanted to wish you the best of luck on 28th at Mercantile.....I'll be keeping an eye on your thread! Not long now....
I believe there's about 200 people on the list for that day so if you all have to attend (which I doubt) it will be very busy (hope the coffee machine can cope!!)
I'm claiming from A&L and I was transferred from Wakefield CC to Leeds CC on 18th May so presume I'll end up at Mercantile too (I hope) but not heard anything from Court yet so maybe will miss the hearing on the 28th (shame)...
Thanks for the support Scoobz, there is still time for you to be joining me!!
There does not seem many A&L getting this far and i havent seen any go to Merc.
Thanks again

Just spoken to Leeds CC and they only received my papers on 6th June so I won't be joining you I'm afraid as its too late. The next hearing is 29th August so she said I should be in that batch (shame)! She also said that majority of cases are being settled before hearing or actually on the day (solicitors walking around with cheques) so it sounds really promising!
It's gone very quiet with A&L claims, I think most people are just waiting for court dates and I haven't seen many that are going to Mercantile? We could do to see some more "wins" to keep us positive....
I don't know about you but the days just can't go fast enough (14 days for you and 75 days for me)! Unless they settle before...
Hi just wishing you all the best at the hearing - Just saw your other threads ref the special paperwork you had to sort out - looks complicated.
Will be thinking of you

I'll be watching with interest regarding A&L (can't believe they haven't settled yet)....
I'm sure all the news channels will be there as this looks like its going to be the biggest hearing at Leeds since they started (unless they all settle before).
Thankyou both, strangely enough i am not too worried..I've been trying to negotiate with Barclays claim so that has distracted me a little, Looking forward to seeing how this develops.

I checked my acct after leaving court and ltsb had credited my account with the amount I claimed at MCOL, but not the amount at cmi. After all that 'fannying about' with their 28 days. I would like to let Judge G know this to avoid him granting further 28 day stays for settlement. But in saying this, my case is not yet settled I'm still appx £300 down, so maybe it will take 28 days.
Hope the lady with the business acct gets sorted soon and also the poor gent from Australia, KEEP MY FINGERS CROSSED
