    • They have defended the claim by saying that the job was of unsatisfactory standard and they had to call another carpenter to remedy. My husband has text messages about them losing the keys a second time and also an email. What do they hope to achieve??? Most importantly,  as far as I have seen online, now I need to wait for paperwork from the court, correct?
    • The Notice to Hirer does not comply with the protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule  4 . This is before I ask if Europarks have sent you a copy of the PCN they sent to Arval along with a copy of the hire agreement et. if they haven't done that either you are totally in the clear and have nothing to worry about and nothing to pay. The PCN they have sent you is supposed to be paid by you according to the Act within 21 days. The chucklebuts have stated 28 days which is the time that motorists have to pay. Such a basic and simple thing . The Act came out in 2012 and still they cannot get it right which is very good news for you. Sadly there is no point in telling them- they won't accept it because they lose their chance to make any money out of you. they are hoping that by writing to you demanding money plus sending in their  unregulated debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors that you might be so frightened as to pay them money so that you can sleep at night. Don't be surprised if some of their letters are done in coloured crayons-that's the sort of  level of people you will be dealing with. Makes great bedding for the rabbits though. Euro tend not to be that litigious but while you can safely ignore the debt collectors just keep an eye out for a possible Letter of Claim. They are pretty rare but musn't be ignored. Let us know so that you can send a suitably snotty letter to them showing that you are not afraid of them and are happy to go to Court as you like winning.  
    • They did reply to my defence stating it would fail and enclosed copies of NOA, DN Term letter and account statements. All copies of T&C's that could be reconstructions and the IP address on there resolves to the town where MBNA offices are, not my location

    • My defence was standard no paperwork:   1.The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. The Defendant has had a contractual relationship with MBNA Limited in the past. The Defendant does not recognise the reference number provided by the claimant within its particulars and has sought verification from the claimant who is yet to comply with requests for further information. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant maintains that a default notice was never received. The Claimant is put to strict proof to that a default notice was issued by MBNA Limited and received by the Defendant. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment allegedly served from either the Claimant or MBNA Limited. 5. On the 02/01/2023 the Defendant requested information pertaining to this claim by way of a CCA 1974 Section 78 request. The claimant is yet to respond to this request. On the 19/05/2023 a CPR 31.14 request was sent to Kearns who is yet to respond. To date, 02/06/2023, no documentation has been received. The claimant remains in default of my section 78 request. 6. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of proof of assignment being sent/ agreement/ balance/ breach or termination requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) show how the Defendant entered into an agreement; and (b) show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a default notice pursuant to Section 87(1) CCA1974 (c) show how the claimant has reached the amount claimed for; and (d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim; 7. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 8. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit Act 1974. 9. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.

    • 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.

It's impossible to say as I don't know what assets or savings etc you have, but to qualify for remission on such a low fee you'd have to fit into an extremely small category of people.

 

How sure are you that you qualified?

Yes, technically they should notify all other known creditors.

 

But they didn't… they told the court that they were not aware of any other creditors and if they had bothered to look it up, they would have seen that there are a few debts, one of which was much larger than theirs…(not including the £250k mortgage charge)...

 

 

I don't suppose there is much to be done about it now…

Seeing that the judge did not take your equitable counterclaim into account against the JC’s enforcement action, there has, therefore, been a serious procedural error in the case because the judge has not applied CPR r.73.8(2)© & (d) – (see below), and, in the circumstances of your case posted here, the judge has clearly disregarded the authority Geldof Metaalconstructie NV v Simon Carves Ltd [2010] EWCA Civ 677, which confirms that it is manifestly unjust for a Court to allow a Claimant’s enforcement action without taking the Defendant’s cross-claim (counterclaim) into account and off-setting the same against the Claimant’s enforcement action. Such claim and cross-claim must be so closely connected for it to be manifestly unjust to allow the claim but not take the cross-claim into account.

 

 

If this matter was decided in your local County Court, then, depending upon the amount of monies involved for both actions, it is quite possible that the DJ did not have authority to deal with it and therefore he should have adjourned the charging order hearing and transferred the entire matter to the High Court – Chancery Division or Queen’s Bench Division, where either of those Courts would have served directions on you and the Claimant for the purpose of the matter to go to trial.

 

 

Based on what you have posted here, you have clear grounds to apply back to the same Court to have the charging order set aside and for the matter to be transferred and formally adjudicated on by a High Court judge (Chancery or Queen’s) after a trial of the matters/issues in dispute have been heard and all evidence thereon put before the Court.

 

 

Rule 73.8 Further consideration of the application

73.8

(1) If any person objects to the court making a final charging order, he must—

(a) file; and

(b) serve on the applicant;

written evidence stating the grounds of his objections, not less than 7 days before the hearing.

(2) At the hearing the court may—

(a) make a final charging order confirming that the charge imposed by the interim charging order shall continue, with or without modification;

(b) discharge the interim charging order and dismiss the application;

© decide any issues in dispute between the parties, or between any of the parties and any other person who objects to the court making a final charging order; or

(d) direct a trial of any such issues, and if necessary give directions.

(3) If the court makes a final charging order which charges securities other than securities held in court, the order will include a stop notice unless the court otherwise orders.

(Section III of this Part contains provisions about stop notices.)

(4) Any order made at the hearing must be served on all the persons on whom the interim charging order was required to be served.

 

 

 

CPR r.73.5(1)

 

"Such other creditors as the court directs"

73.5.1 The court has a discretion whether or not to make a charging order. It may not be equitable to do so where there are other creditors, the judgment debtor is insolvent, and there is or is about to be an arrangement to distribute available assets among the creditors pro rata (D Wilson (Birmingham) Ltd v Metropolitan Property Developments Ltd [1975] 2 All E.R. 814; Rainbow v Moorgate Properties Ltd [1975] 2 All E.R. 821). Accordingly, in the application, the judgment creditor is required to state other creditors of the judgment debtor of which they are aware and the court has power to direct service on them. A debtor's spouse would be regarded as a creditor where an application for ancillary relief has been registered against the property (see generally, Harman v Glencross [1986] 1 All E.R. 545).

 

 

Therefore, your other creditors should have been served with the charging order application.

Thats what the CPR advises......

 

CPR 'advice'…. so they can ignore it if they like?

 

Seeing that the judge did not take ...............

 

 

Great advice IB… thanks!! Just trying to find out if they have actually broken any rules by not notifying all the other creditors…and if so, what remedies are available…They seem to get away with all sorts so I won't hold my breath… It seems so unfair that they can disregard all kinds of things and the court turns a blind eye, yet if I were to make a mistake they would come down on me like a ton of bricks!!

CPR 'advice'…. so they can ignore it if they like?

 

The Civil Procdure Rules provide a new code of civil procedure for the civil courts.The CPR were designed to improve access to justice by making legal proceedings cheaper, quicker, and easier to understand for non-lawyers. Unlike the previous rules of civil procedure, the CPR commence with a statement of their “Overriding Objective”, both to aid in the application of specific provisions and to guide behaviour where no specific rule applies.

 

So no they cant ignore and I would refer you to CPR 1.1 in particular 1.1 2 (a)

 

1.1

(1) These Rules are a new procedural code with the overriding objective of enabling the court to deal with cases justly and at proportionate cost.

(2) Dealing with a case justly and at proportionate cost includes, so far as is practicable –

(a) ensuring that the parties are on an equal footing;

(b) saving expense;

© dealing with the case in ways which are proportionate –

(i) to the amount of money involved;

(ii) to the importance of the case;

(iii) to the complexity of the issues; and

(iv) to the financial position of each party;

(d) ensuring that it is dealt with expeditiously and fairly;

(e) allotting to it an appropriate share of the court’s resources, while taking into account the need to allot resources to other cases; and

(f) enforcing compliance with rules, practice directions and orders.

 

Its how you interpret and manipulate to your own advantage.

Do you know for sure that no other creditors were served?

 

Why have you not started your own Court claim like the Judge advised you to do rather than mess around with the refused counter claim?

 

Sorry if I've you've said, but what is your counter claim for again?

Many thanks, Andy… I still find the rules very complicated and I consider myself to be of average intelligence… but I am sure there are many, many people who are completely baffled… if it was so easy, the lawyers would be out of a job.

But the JC solicitors stated that they were 'not aware of any other creditors'…. What measures are they required to take to find out if there are any other debts? I don't think they could have looked very far as we were involved with a DCA in 2008 when my husband was suddenly made redundant and there are quite a few debts which I am still paying off. They would only have had to run a credit check to find out about these...

Hmmm… not really an equal footing when one side is represented and the other side is a very uninformed LIP… But I appreciate what you are saying...

Thedabara, you could complain to the Financial Ombudsman about your insurance company refusing to pay for your counterclaim. You would first need to establish if your counterclaim is within the time limit. It is always best to be represented as it is a professional risk for a judge to find in favour of a LIP when the other side is represented. (S/he could get overturned when the represented side appeal, which is humiliating for a judge and no help to his/her CV).

 

 

Just an update; The FOS is now involved with regard to my legal expenses insurer failing to allow my claim… I spoke to someone on the phone yesterday and although I was having problems hearing because the tinnitus is is bad, it seems quite positive in that she seemed to agree that the creditor has acted unlawfully against me… I won't be holding my breath, though, as i am sure these things take time… meanwhile, the creditor has recently threatened a forced sale… this is the 2nd time in 6 months that his solicitor has made threats… perhaps they are worried that I will try to counterclaim again, as the last time I was denied a defence and counterclaim by the court's failure to issue same in the mistaken belief that I had failed to pay the court fee. I wrote to the court asking for some kind of explanation but they haven't bothered to reply.

I have problems keeping up the pace… there are sometimes weeks and weeks where I just can't face doing anything because of the anxiety… then I get some strength to carry on after a bit… I need to keep up the momentum, I suppose…

 

I know that the creditor is justified in trying to get his money back because i withdrew from the trial, so therefore I owe his legal costs… but I don't think the court was right in making the order when I was denied the right to a fair hearing due to the court's failure to provide a working audio loop, and the judge's failure to adjourn until I had been fitted with the hearing aids I was waiting for...

 

According to dictionary.com, bias is defined as follows:

 

1. a particular tendency, trend, inclination, feeling, or opinion, especially one that is preconceived or unreasoned: illegal bias against older job applicants; the magazine’s bias toward art rather than photography; our strong bias in favor of the idea.

2. unreasonably hostile feelings or opinions about a social group; prejudice: accusations of racial bias.

 

In order to be biased, the judge would need to have some preconceived notion about who is right before listening to the case. Making a decision you disagree with is not bias. The judge was faced with the other side saying they sent it, you saying you didn't receive it, and decided to go with the other side.

 

I still think there was bias… the judge favoured the other side by insisting on going ahead with the trial knowing I was unable to fully participate, being a deaf LIP without a hearing loop...

Hmmm… Several emails to the court to which I have had no replies, aside from an automatic acknowledgement…(How rude!!)

 

I think maybe I should fill in the EX343 form and make a formal complaint.

 

If I can prove that there was an administrative error by the Court where they failed to issue my defence and counterclaim prior to the hearing for the final CO, then hopefully I can apply to have the CO set aside

 

I am entitled to defend myself against the creditor's application, otherwise, it's not a fair hearing.

 

Does anyone think this might be the best way forward, please? In a kind of Limbo here with the creditor slowly circling, waiting for a sign of weakness so that he can take my home away… :(

I very much doubt that the solicitors firm will have the facility to run a credit check on you.

 

Don't they just check on Experian or something? Or is it up to the defendant to ensure that they have all details of other creditors?

At what courts are Charging Orders made?

 

It depends on the original value of the judgment debt; if under £5,000, it will be made in the County Court. For all judgments with a value that exceeds £5,000, the Charging Order will be made in the High Court.

 

Found this on Burlington's website… does anyone know if it's true, please? If so, my hearing should have been in the High Court...

 

I very much doubt that the solicitors firm will have the facility to run a credit check on you.

 

 

Also found this on Burlington's which very much seems to imply that it is down to the creditor to inform 'known' creditors… but of course, they will just say there are no known creditors… In our case, there is about £60k worth of debt, not including the ™250k mortgage, so a bit naughty for them to just charge ahead with the CO.

 

I also found other little bits on this site; The creditor's statement of truth should be signed… (It wasn't). I brought this to the court's attention in my defence argument, which of course didn't see the light of day, because the court didn't issue it...

 

Also, the court only allowed for a 10 minute hearing to 'rubber stamp' the CO, which is hardly fair, seeing as I could possibly lose my home..

 

Grrr!!!

 

If there's anyone out there, please let me know what you think… good or bad... it's feeling a little bit lonely talking to myself...

What is the process for obtaining a Charging Order?

The application is a two-stage process;

 

Obtaining an Interim Charging Order (formerly known as an ‘order nisi’) (CPR 73.4) – this is obtained without notice to the defendant and for property, the creditor can use land registry to check ownership of land. ‘Office copy entries’ should be attached to the application as evidence.

At the interim stage, a judge will deal with the application without a hearing. The judge could impose a charge over the defendant’s interest in the asset and for a hearing for a final order; or he could refuse to make the interim order, using his discretion, as the outstanding amount is too small to justify the defendant losing his home if the Final Charging Order becomes an Order for Sale. In their application, the creditor should include evidence, in paragraph 7, that the defendant has a “won’t pay” attitude rather than a “can’t wait”. Also, include an abortive enforcement methods tried and include the abortive report. It is for the creditor to put a case together to prove the defendant has assets to pay but is unwilling to do so.

 

An interim order should be registered to stop the asset being sold. It will depend on whether the land is registered or unregistered as to the steps that should be taken. See chart on page 135.

 

Interim charging orders must be served not less than 21 days before the final order hearing; it should be served with the application notice and any other documents which support it; served on the defendant, any creditors (directed by courts) and, if the interest relates to a trust then the trustees. The creditor must include any other known creditors in their application.

If an Interim Charging Order is made prior to agreeing a payment arrangement, the court usually confirms the Charging Order but it is unlikely to do so if the payment arrangement is made after the interim order has been made. The court will use their discretion to make or refuse a Charging Order.

UPDATE:

 

Finally, FINALLY a letter from the Court….

 

An admission of maladministration along with an apology for their mistake in not issuing my defence/counterclaim in the mistaken belief that I had not paid the court fee.

County courts system 'in chaos'

 

Judge Paul Collins

Judge Collins blames mistakes on the lack of resources

The civil justice system is in crisis, according to one of Britain's top county court judges.

Judge Paul Collins, London's most senior county court judge, has told Radio 4's Law in Action programme that serious errors are commonplace.

 

He said low pay and staff shortages meant "we run the risk of bringing about a real collapse in the service".

 

The Courts Service denied the system was in such a state but admitted staff turnover was high in London.

hi

that article is 9 years old, but as say #91, they still have problems?

 

Yes… all this time and they still haven't sorted it out… Court mistakes can lead to people losing their homes through no fault of their own...

 

At least in my case they have managed to find the missing documents… but it has taken ages for them to admit their mistake.... it's been a year since the hearing!:mad2:

 

Presumably, I don't need to apply for an extension of time if it's the court's fault for losing the documents and failing to issue them?

 

Just the application to set aside, then, I guess...

 

Thank you for the link, Theda. I've left a quote of part of the article and put in your link, as per site rules.

ok… thanks and sorry for the pasting!!
