judges requests

[john]

Received a letter from Cobbetts today asking for me to send notice of discontinuance forms to court as they sent a cheque for full and final settlement on 13th August. Great, but only problem is I haven’t got any letter or cheque.

 

Also according to todays letter they have enclosed a copy of said letter from 13th August, but that isn’t there either!!!

 

Have spoken to them today and they don’t seem too concerned about the missing cheque, and the missing copy of the letter is a clerical error. I broached the subject of the extra interest accrued, and was told to email with the current figure. Have done this today so eagerly await the outcome.

I know this may come as a little overdue but ... the practice direction to Part 18 of the Civil Procedure Rules says nothing about a request for further information not applying to small claims cases. In fact, if allocation questionnaires have not been filed prior to the request for further information pursuant to CPR Part 18 then the claim is not allocated to any track and both parties are still very much on risk as to costs.

this can't be true, wouldn't Cobbetts be milking this fact? as it stands they've never used that argument in any of the letters I've received from them!

I stated to Cobbetts all along that I had no problem providing the information at the courts request, and indeed submitted the info at the judges request.

Hi John,

But isn't that the whole argument here......'at the Judge's request' ? I too have expressed the same and have provided as much relevant information to them without going into legal depths by answering every question in their request. Although we should be ready for it, I think the Judge would see right through this.......not that it'll ever go before a Judge ;>)
