To have a default judgment set aside the defendant will have to satisfy the following legal test found in Part 13 of the CPR:


  • He has a defence with a real prospect of success; or,
  • The judgment should be set aside for some other good reason; and,
  • The application to set aside the judgment was made promptly.

 

 

 

Not saying it's impossible but with the new CPR 3.9 it will be a lot harder.

CPR 13 still stands over CPR 3.9 its a default judgment

 

 

http://www.justice.gov.uk/courts/procedure-rules/civil/rules/part13

 

13.3 (ii) the defendant should be allowed to defend the claim.

 

 

(2) In considering whether to set aside(GL) or vary a judgment entered under Part 12, the matters to which the court must have regard include whether the person seeking to set aside the judgment made an application to do so promptly

Hi

 

If you can show the courts that you always responded to previous demands from DCA's and you had put the account in dispute. That had you recieved a demand from this DCA and a Claim you would have responded and defended accordingly.

 

With Northampton, the best way to achieve a resolution is to phone them, get a name and a contact email address. Send the email as a complaint that way they have to deal with it quickly. Give them as much info as you can, list every DCA that has had this, with time lines and dates.Be polite, but also be firm. My husband got a CCJ by default because they made a mistake, his defence was filed on time but they didn't upload it onto the system. It took 2 days, numerous phone calls and finally when I sent an email threatening a counter claim against the court , the CCJ was set aside that day.

 

It is also important to find out what MDKP have,send a CPR 31.14, and copy the courts on this. Point out that you would have sent this had you recieved the court docs. If they had failed to comply with this request, but proceed with the claim you would have attached a Disclosure request with the allocation questionairre.

 

I think if you can show the courts that you have an understanding of the court process, and you had a solid defence they will have to consider your application for a set a side.

 

It is odd that you did not recieve the cliam form. But no post is guaranteed.

Hi Debs ... some great points and guidance .. thank you x

 

Yes, I agree very odd re the claim form. The judgement was dated 23 Dec, and recd 30 Dec, and again just said by normal mail (ie not recorded/special delivery etc).

 

As soon as it arrived, my hubby rang and spoke to the callcentre at Northampton, the lady he spoke to was very pleasant, and said not to worry, she would send out the relevant forms and it would be tsfd to a local court, at no charge.

 

So, Debs, I (well he) starts off stating why no AOS or defence was submitted. That he would have defend if recd, and include a time line and copy of all letters to Nwide and all DCAs, and submit with the N244 ?

 

I then basically take the dispute points out of the letter, and list them as bullet points re what the defence is (ie why the CCA provided fails to meet CCA74 requirements, which resulted in the dispute). Should I also include the fact that he did not receive a default notice, as a belt and braces, or will that do more harm than good ?

 

My hubby has said he's not going to court, but I read that for a set aside you have to attend ... would that apply even if he hadn't recd the original claim forms ?

 

Would you mind if when I've completed the N244 if you would run your eye over it and give me your thoughts ? Also does he take this up with Northampton or wait for local court ?

 

Thanks Abs

Yes, of course, and the claim form is of course being completed from his perspective.

 

N244 form does say whether you wish to attend a hearing or not - so unclear if they give a choice, if its mandatory - maybe he would be best checking with the court.

Ok thanks, the form is very ambiguous if its from experience that he'll have to attend.

 

I'll get him to ring the court tomorrow to clarify his position....

 

However many thanks for your input on attendance and guidance that he have to actually sign the N244 himself .....

 

Help on completing the N244 would be beneficial

No need to call the Court.

 

If the application can be agreed with the Claimant beforehand then there will be no hearing and your husband just pays the £45.00 fee.

 

However, if the Claimant does not agree to the set aside there may be a hearing and your husband may have to pay £80.00 and attend to argue his application.

The Court never sends you anything by RD or SD.

 

Look at the Civil Procedure Rules practice direction 6A paragraph 3.1 (1) which states the Claim Form is deemed served once it is placed in the post. This is regardless of whether it is actually received.

 

As Andy says, because your husband has applied promptly and he may have a Defence to claim he has a decent chance of setting aside the Judgment.

 

If the Claimant does try and fight the set aside the above are the arguments your husband is likely to face.

Ok .. hurrah ... thanks Andy ...

 

Court forms have arrived today by 1st class mail.

 

They have included a copy of the POC which are as follows ....

"The Claimant claims the sum of £xxxxxx being monies due from the Defendant to the Claimant under a regulated agreement originally between the Defendant and Nationwide.

 

The Defendant's account number was xxxxxxxx and was assigned to the Claimant on 10/10/2011, notice of this has been provided to the Defandant. The Defendant has failed to make payments in accordance with the terms of the agreement and a default notice has been served pursuant to the Consumer Credit Act 1974.

 

The Claimant claims the sum of £xxxxxxxx and costs.

 

The Claimant has complied , as far as is necessary, with the pre-action practice direction"

 

So, now we know the actual POCs can you advise if the attached N244 (plus supplementary defence page) I have compiled is decent enough ?

 

I would also add that in respect of the prescribed heading issue, the only place within the agreement that the CCA74 is mentioned, is within the signature box (above where the debtor signs), which is just about at the bottom of the document, and after 2 large paragraphs only discussing "use of key information" and "Credit reference and fraud protection clauses " ie no prescribed terms ...

 

and simply states

 

"this is an agreement regulated by the Consumer Credit Act 1974. Sign it only if you want to be legally bound by the terms" ...

 

which AFAIK doesn't satisfy the prescribed format and heading requirements as clearly laid down in the Act eg it has to be at the heading of the agreement.

 

The whole agreement as I say is also pretty illegible and must be in size 2 or 3 font (I'll try and scan up later).

 

All comments, suggested amendments, changes, welcome

 

Many thanks guys

Following on from Debs post, would it be better to see what evidence they have before going down the N244 route ?

 

I've tinkered with the cpr 31.14 to try and fit the situ, and would welcome thoughts on whether this is the best initial route, and whether the tinkering I've done is ok ?

Hi,

 

Letter recd today from Keynes Collections.

 

Letter reads ...

 

"We write to remind you that Judgment was entered against you on 23 December 2013. A copy of the judgment has been sent to you under separate cover by the court.

 

Please note that if you pay your Counrty Court Judgment in full within one month of the judgment date, it will be removed from the register, the credit reference agencies will be notified and they will remove details of the CCJ from your record.

 

To contact us and discuss your account please call us on xxxxxxxx. Our opening times are, blah blah ".

 

And thats it, should hubby initially go down the CPR 31.14 route, and send them the above letter I've posted for comment ? Or how would you recommend we proceed ?

 

Abs x

Advice appears to have dried up Abby...you cant fish with a CPR request to establish a defence for set a side purposes. You either have a valid defence which you know and would have used should you have received the claim forms or not.

 

 

However don't let that deter you from making application...your application may be successful and the claimant may not wish to proceed but at least have a few reasons for defence prepared

 

 

Please don't submit the above draft with all that case law.

 

 

Regards

 

 

Andy
