    • Should this to be take into court with him or should he send something in earlier?

    • 4 means that they need to name and then tell the people who will be affected that there has been an application made, what the application relates to (specificially "whether it relates to the exercise of the court’s jurisdiction in relation to P’s property and affairs, or P’s personal welfare, or to both) and what this application contains (i.e what order they want made as a result of it) 5 just means that teh court think it is important that the relevant people are notified 7 means that the court need more information to make the application, hence they have then made the order of paragraph 1 which requires the applicant to do more - this means the court can't make a decision with the current information, and need more, hence paragraph one of the order is for the applicant to do more. paragraph 3 of the order gives you the ability to have it set aside, although if it was made in january you are very late. Were you notiifed of the application or not?    
    • These are the photos of the signs. At the entrance there is a 7h free sign. On some bays there is a permit sign.  Also their official website is misleading as it implies all parking is free.  I can't be certain of the exact parking bay I was in that day, and there was no PCN ticket on my car and no other evidence was provided.  parking sign 2.pdf
    • Hi, In my last post I mentioned I had received an email from SS who were asking me to hand over the keys to my mother’s flat so they could pass them to the Law firm who have been appointed court of protection to access, secure and insure my mother’s property.  Feeling this, all quickly getting out of my hands I emailed ss requesting proof of this. I HAVEN’T HEARD BACK FROM SS.  Yesterday, I received an email (with attached court of protection order) from the Law Firm confirming this was correct (please see below a copy of this).  After reading the court of protection order I do have some concerns about it:   (a)   I only found out yesterday, the Law firm had been appointed by the court back in January.  Up until now, I have not received any notification regarding this.  (b)   Section 2   - States I am estranged from my mother.  This is NOT CORRECT    The only reason I stepped back from my mother was to protect myself from the guy (groomer) who had befriended her & was very aggressive towards me & because of my mother’s dementia she had become aggressive also.  I constantly tried to warned SS about this guy's manipulative behaviour towards my mother and his increasing aggressiveness towards me (as mentioned in previous posts).  Each time I was ignored.  Instead, SS encouraged his involvement with my mother – including him in her care plans and mental health assessments.   I was literally pushed out because I feared him and my mother’s increasing aggression towards me. Up until I stepped back, I had always looked after my mother and since her admission to the care home, I visit regularly.   .(c)    Sections -  4, 5 and 7  I am struggling to understand these as I don’t have a legal background.  I was wondering if there is anyone who might be able to explain what they mean.  It’s been a horrendous situation where I had to walk away from my mother at her most vulnerable because of; ss (not helping), scammer and groomer. I have no legal background, nor experience in highly manipulative people or an understanding of how the SS system operates, finding myself isolated, scared and powerless to the point I haven’t collected my personal belongings and items for my mother’s room in the care home.  Sadly, the court has only had heard one version of this story SS’s, and based their decision on that. My mother’s situation and the experience I have gone through could happen to anyone who has a vulnerable parent.    If anyone any thoughts on this much appreciated.  Thank you. ______________________________________________________  (Below is the Court of Protection Order)  COURT OF PROTECTION                                                                                                                                                                                   No xxx  MENTAL CAPACITY ACT 2005 In the matter of Name xxx ORDER Made by  Depty District Judge At xxx Made on xxx Issued on 18 January 2024  WHEREAS  1.     xxx Solicitors, Address xxx  ("Applicant”) has applied for an order under the Mental Capacity Act 2005.  2.     The Court notes (my mother) is said to be estranged from all her three children and only one, (me) has been notified.  3.     (Me) was previously appointed as Atorney for Property and Affairs for (my mother).  The Exhibity NAJ at (date) refers to (me) and all replacement Attorneys are now officially standing down.  4.     Pursuant to Rule 9.10 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 and Practice Direction 9B the Applicant 2must seek to identify at least three persons who are likely to have an interest in being notified that an application has been issues.”  The children of (my mother), and any other appointed attorneys are likely to have an interest in the application, because of the nature of relationship to (my mother).  5.     The Court considers that the notification requirements are an important safeguard for the person in respect of whom an order is sought.  6.     The Court notes that it is said that the local authority no longer has access to (my mother’s) Property.  7.     Further information is required for the Court to determine the application.  IT IS ORDERED THAT  Within 28 days of the issue date this order, the Applicant shall file a form COP24 witness statement confirming that the other children of (my mother) and any replacement attorneys have been notified of the application and shall confirm their name, address, and date upon which those persons were notified.  If the Applicant wishes the Court to dispense with any further notification, they should file a COP9 and COP24 explaining, what steps (if any) have been taken to attempt notification and why notification should be dispensed with.   Pending the determination of the application to appoint a deputy for (my mother), the Applicant is authorised to take such steps as are proportionate and necessary to access, secure and insure the house and property of (my mother).   This order was made without a hearing and without notice.  Any person affected by this order may apply within 21 days of the date on which the order was served to have the order set aside or varied pursuant to Rule 13.4 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 (“the Rules”).  Such application must be made on Form COP9 and in accordance with Part 10 Rules.

    • 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.

Well if they wrote to you at your correct address and fully knew where you were but they issued the claim to a previous address that is looking pretty good for you.

 

Hang fire for the legal guys to get here.

Hi ...some information with regards to setting a side a regular Default Judgment:-

 

Regular Default Judgments

 

If the defendant fails to respond to a claim, which has been issued and served in accordance with the law, the claimant is entitled to apply for a default judgment. A default judgment entered in these circumstances is said to be “regular”.

 

The Law on Applying to Set Aside a Regular Default Judgment

 

If a defendant wants to set aside a default judgment he will have to make an application to the court.(N244 Application Notice) If the claim was not issued in the defendant’s local court the case will be transferred to that court and a hearing of the application will be listed.

 

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;

• The application to set aside the judgment was made promptly.

 

Applying Promptly

 

In deciding whether or not the defendant has acted promptly in making their application the relevant date is usually the date on which the defendant found out about the judgment. Judges have differing views on what constitutes a prompt application. Some say that anything over four weeks shows that the defendant has failed to act promptly – others will entertain applications made many months later.

 

The Merits of the Defence

 

The defendant will also have to convince the judge that he has a defence that has a real prospect of succeeding. It is not enough for the defendant to show merely that he has a defence that would be arguable in law. The defendant should support their application with evidence.

 

Setting Aside Default Judgments on Terms

 

In some circumstances the judge may agree to set the judgment aside provided that certain conditions are met. For example, a judge could order the defendant to pay the amount claimed into court. This might be done in the case of a defendant who is pursuing a tenuous defence simply because he cannot afford to pay the debt.

 

The Defendant Says That He Never Received the Claim Form

 

The law on service of court documents states that:

 

• if the court sends the defendant a claim form at his usual or last known address; and,

• it is subsequently returned to the court as undelivered;

 

the claim form has still been validly served and the claimant is entitled to a regular default judgment.

 

Therefore, even if the defendant can persuade the judge that he never received the claim form, the judgment was still regular as a matter of law. However, it may provide an explanation for the defendant’s failure to respond to the claim.

 

The Judge’s Discretion

 

The law on default judgments provides judges with a wide discretion to set judgment aside. Justice demands that a judgment which has been entered with no, or little, regard to the merits of the claim should be set aside if the defendant has a good defence and made his application promptly. However, there is no point setting aside a default judgment if the defendant has no chance of defending the claim. It would be a waste of time and money because, ultimately, the claimant would simply obtain another judgment. The courts should be slow to deprive the claimant of a valid judgment obtained in accordance with the law.

 

Regards

 

Andy

Andy Orch, I need some help to put together a defence and application can you point me in the right direction

The claim and default judgement was made through the northampton bulk centre

 

as usual no details were supplied, such as whether they had the right to pursue, no documentation was supplied to support the claim etc etc

 

I am now 2 months in default of the judgement payment schedule as I only found out last week and i want to avoid further action

 

I spoke to them and over the phone in one conversation they have agreed a full and final of 50% without a lot of trying on my part

 

I urgently need to make a decision whether to settle or fight I am aware if I settle the claim will show for another 6 years on my credit file

If theyve agreed a F&F of 50% of a judgement, then something isnt right. ESPECIALLY when carter is involved.

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..

Since they knew you were at a new address, but carter decided to issue on an old one on a bad debt at an old address, the set aside should be relatively straight forward. Carter is a very unscrupulous person. He will do whatever it takes to get a judgement, even on an unenforceable debt. he doesnt care as once a defence is filed, he runs off back under the rock he crawled out from. I'm just amazed he has managed to keep his solicitors licence.

Hi

 

To set a side you complete the N244 application notice and submit your reasons for set a side ..you will have to outline a small synopsis of your intended defence.

 

To make payment arrangements you need to vary the judgment to mthly payment this is done using the N245...complete the I&E and make a proposed monthly payment.

 

If you wish to accept their offer of settlement and are happy to pay the agreed figure you suggest a Consent Order were they set a side the CCJ and then confirm the payment arrangements within the Consent Order.

 

All forms are available in the legal Library.

 

Regards

 

Andy

the consent order looks a good option,

as it means that I can get on with my life without chasing around the courts for a maybe win at a set side

 

from what youve read so far can you suggest setaside grounds and with your experience do you think it could be successful

They will set a side for you if you agree their terms by way of a Consent Order...you dont need to make application.

If they dont agree to a consent order setting aside to their terms, how good a chance would I have a getting a full setaside with claim served at incorrect address, nomention of assignment or proof of debt on POC, and only a recon to s78 req from OC, also no reply to dsar

Well if you tell them its your intention to set a side and would they like to consider a Consent Order...I would imagine they would go with it after offering 50% discount.

If not your chances are as good as any if it was deemed bad service....you would then have start from the beginning ..enter a defence and if you lose you are back to square one...without the 50% deduction.

  • 5 months later...

Update, set aside hearing won with £400 costs awarded to me

Defence submitted, followed by the same old same old consent order route from BC

Hearing date read for 12 September

Witness statement received this weekend with old application in parts illegible plus a statement of default with no default notice

A letter of assignment with no evidence of it

And a current terms and conditions with (EDIT) one heading addressed to my current address which is a compete fabrication

I need a new amendment to my defence

 

They also state that they won't be attending court. I am livid about this because they know that I will win on default notice alone

I need some defence input if anyone can help

Can I ask for costs, still small claims

What were the Directions after the set aside hearing?

 

Why did you not exchange a witness statement of your own?

 

You're not meant to be defending or rebutting their witness statement, that's what your evidence at trial is for.

 

I am catching up with it a bit

The hearing is an allocation and directions hearing. The purpose of which is to establish the issues and determination of likely issues and length of final trial

 

The set aside hearing judgement set aside the default judgment and ordered a defence to be filed (duly done pretty well asking for documents)

 

Their witness statement now provides the documents listed above

setaside judgment:

 

1Default judgment is setaside

2Defendant shall file and serve defence by ..... june

3 The clamant shall pay £400 by ...May

 

General form of Judgment:

1 List for allocation and directions on 12th September

2 All parties or legal reps MUST ATTEND

3 Purpose of hearing is to establish dispute and determining likely length of trial

 

Interestingly they are saying they will not be attending in their letter accompanying the witness statement to my original defence
