    • I doubt HMCTS holds any data on whether arrests by AEAs required police assistance.  They couldn't or wouldn't provide data on how many of warrants issued were successfully executed - just the number issued!  In my experience, arrest warrants whether with or without bail are [surprisingly] carried out with little or no fuss.  I think it's about how you treat people - a little respect and courtesy goes a long way. If you treat people badly they will react the same way. Occasions when police are called to assist are not common and, having undertaken or managed many thousands of these over the years, I can only recall a handful of occasions when police assistance was necessary. On one occasion, many years ago, I arrested and transported a man from Hampshire to Bristol prison on a committal warrant. It was just me and he was no problem. I didn't know the Bristol area (pre Sat Nav) and he was kind enough to provide directions - seems he knew the prison.  One young chap on another committal warrant jumped out of his back window and I had to chase him across several garden fences.  When he gave up (we were both knackered) I agreed to drive by his girlfriend's house to say farewell for a while.  I gave them a few moments and he was fine. The most difficult are breach warrants but mainly in locating the defendant as they don't want to go back to prison - can't blame them.  These were always dealt with by the police until the Access to Justice Act transferred responsibility from them to the magistrates' courts. The fact was the police did not actively pursue them and generally only executed them when they arrested someone for something else and found they had a breach warrant outstanding.  Hence the transfer of responsibility.
    • thats down to mcol making that option available for you to select, you cant force it. typically if there are known processing delays at northants bulk it will be atleast 14 days later if not more.
    • Thanks   Noting the day to apply for default judgement if necessary
    • nope, as the display model was not the colour the customer wanted. but your question is totally immaterial anyway as custom built doesn't come into it. dx
    • as long as aos is done by day 19 from the date on the claimform they get a total of 33 days to file a defence. (whereby the date top right on the claimform is ONE in the 33 day count) dx

    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

I was in court in Oxford, and I doubt v much that Frogboy is going to have her field day. But, even if she does, we will have a right of appeal to the Court of Appeal, and the ruling there WILL set a binding legal precedent. So, hey, I'm sleeping well tonight.

I am sleeping well also,but thought would watch a film maybe inspired by RLP costings.

THE MATRIX

Storyline

 

Thomas A. Anderson is a man living two lives. By day he is an average computer programmer and by night a hacker known as Neo. Neo has always questioned his reality, but the truth is far beyond his imagination. Neo finds himself targeted by the police when he is contacted by Morpheus, a legendary computer hacker branded a terrorist by the government. Morpheus awakens Neo to the real world, a ravaged wasteland where most of humanity have been captured by a race of machines that live off of the humans' body heat and electrochemical energy and who imprison their minds within an artificial reality known as the Matrix. As a rebel against the machines, Neo must return to the Matrix and confront the agents: super-powerful computer programs devoted to snuffing out Neo and the entire human rebellion.

 

Yes we know the feeling-who can imagine RLPs invoices being realistically legitimate.

It must be an artificial reality since RLP did not bother to provide it.

There is a rumour that RLP did not provide The Matrix for scrutiny,as they got tipped off that there was an Enigma machine in the Oxford museum :lol:

The genius of Martin3030's humour will be revealed to all when the transcript of the trial becomes available, with the many references (by RLP, TSS and The Retailer That Cannot Be Named) to the mysterious but all powerful Matrix. At the moment, you really need to have been there. Though no doubt Frogboy could explain it to us. She knows EVERYTHING. Maybe she's The One. Or maybe she took the pink pill when she should have taken the blue one.

 

Finally, to the Troll who's been trying to hack my CAG account: what is it you want to know? Why don't you just email or phone me? You know who I am, and where I work. And when are you going to realise that we are not as stupid as you are?

Yes we are aware of these foiled attempts at severe disruption....not to mention diversion.

And dont have to take the system offline to do the processing.............:roll:

But no diversion, let alone significant disruption, caused by the Troll. Because you'd be working on the CAG site anyway. Performing one of your core functions: dealing with Trolls.

 

Which is a shame, coz otherwise you'd be able to issue a county court claim against them for the time spent dealing with their nefarious activity. Obviously, you'd want to claim 7 hours 30 minutes for every hour (or less) that you actually spent dealing with the, er, incident. :-)

 

Umecan seems to have taken my advice and used the weekend to calm down. As for Frogboy, who knows where she is this morning. She probably doesn't know herself. :-D

Martin, you're wasted on here. You should be working in something that could make full use of your intellectual and comic abilities. Retail, maybe.

I was thinking of maybe loss prevention and speculative invoicing,but I read somewhere that there's no future in that.

 

We had a case here over the weekend of significant disruption,one of the site team forgot to replenish the hob nobs.

An investigation has been started but was delayed, as the key for the holding room has gone missing.

We had to do it in the CAG cellar amongst piles of dusty files containing RLP CAG complaints.

 

ohhh look-frogboy is Lurking.

 

Good morning Frogboy,I trust your weekend was productive ?

You'll need to start dusting off all those RLP files soon, as of course anyone who has ever paid any money to RLP (or the other speculative invoicers) is going to want to take legal action to recover that money. Hang on - a lightbulb has just gone on! I'm off to set up a business, which I will call Civil Recovery Recovery Services Ltd.

 

Obviously, I'll need an inhouse lawyer. I guess Frogboy might be available. :wink:

Me and my maths - what am I like? It wasn't 7 hours and 30 minutes - it was 6 hours and 45 minutes.

 

I should post up the claimant's Schedule of Loss (redacted, so as not to reveal the identity of the Retailer That Cannot Be Named, obviously). The interesting question - which no doubt the SRA will be attempting to answer in due course - is: who wrote the Schedule (and the associated Witness Statements)? The Retailer Who Cannot Be Named, their solicitors (Shakespeares), or RLP? And the security industry regulator may want to ask TSS why their staff signed the Witness Statements and swore in the witness box that they were a true statement of the facts.

I don't know about 40%, but maybe some 'sheets of paper' that were destined to be used as 'speculative invoices', maybe we can get them at a knock down price.:-D

 

Anyway you like, as long as I get my 40%. (Though I have it on good authority that, in the case of The Retailer That Cannot Be Named, it is actually 60%. Suckers!)

Was the way that RLP (on behalf of A Retailer amongst others) use a debt collection agency to try to get people to pay, when no debt exists (i.e. before they have won a court case), brought out in court?

 

No, we only had a day and a half! And, of course, the claimant (The Retailer That Cannot Be Named) objected to "any attempt to make this case about anything other than the tortious conduct of the First and Second Defendants".
