enforce offer made under cpr 47.19

[cj10]

Following a discontinuance by the claimant, Capquest I made a claim for costs under CPR 38.6.

Capquest made an offer under CPR 47.19, which I accepted a number of weeks ago. No payment has been forthcoming.

 

What is the best way of enforcing payment. I really do not want to force a costs assessment hearing, due to the additional costs involved. I simply want Capquest to honour its offer under CPR 47.19.

Any advice would be most helpful

Interesting...

 

I would write to Capquest and tell them that if they don't pay the agreed costs within 14 days that you will apply for an Order and that you will exhibit a copy of the CPR 47.19 correspondence to your application

Don't forget that "Without Prejudice" is only valid until the negotiations are concluded - as soon as there is an agreement the correspondence becomes admissible

Many thanks for this.

 

I think I'll write to Capquest telling them to pay up or I will use their letter, as negotiations are now complete, as the basis for fseeking a costs order.
