Lowell claimform - 3 sep CAT debts ***Claim Discontinued***

[dx100uk]

A claimant doesn't file a defence..............

[disneygirl]

My apologies dx

[dx100uk]

as long as you didn't click you wished to counterclaim ofcourse...

[disneygirl]

No to counterclaim.

Just going through all paperwork received in preparation for whatever is next.

[disneygirl]

Hi

Received email (16-06-2021) re mediation appointment. 

Do you need me to post it?

Going by previous threads and advice I just need to state "mediation is not suitable due to lack of documentation by claimant"?

Advice as always appreciated

[dx100uk]

well to date they haven't, but by the time the actual phone mediation happens, they might have.

 

in the 'spirit' of the mediation process, you should give them as much time as possible.

should it transpire on the day that they have still failed to provide enough information to make an informed decision, it's then you say no.

[disneygirl]

On appointment it states "If you cannot answer yes to all 3 statements, mediation is NOT suitable for your case and you should contact us: scmreferrals xxxxx"

SO do I wait for mediation phone call or email scmreferrals as not suitable?

[dx100uk]

Now read my last post again carefully

 

Dx

[disneygirl]

Apologies dx, rushed my reading  and interpretation of your post

[disneygirl]

Hi

Just finished mediation phone call and in some respects I had to enforce the point the case is not suitable for mediation due to lack of information from claimant.

Person on other end of phone eventually agreed with me, but only after trying to get me to negotiate with sols.

Decision re mediation referred back to court.

Will now await outcome and further paperwork.

[disneygirl]

Hi

So a month after mediation phone call and no further contact from anybody.

Is this usual?

[dx100uk]

i will expect its awaiting allocation to your local court.

 

whats the status on MCOL?

[disneygirl]

Hi dx

No change on MCOL "You filed a DQ on 13/05/2021"

That is the latest entry by date

[disneygirl]

Hi all

As previous post no change (todays date) re MCOL and no contact from anybody.

I suppose I am posting this to keep it open until someone does contact me!

Could be a long year.

[AndyOrch]

Seems to be taking rather a long time considering you filed on the 13th May...does it state the claimant filed their DQ ?

[disneygirl]

Hi Andy

Copied from MCOL recent transactions for defendant:

Claim Status

You filed a DQ on 13/05/2021

No further contact from any person and or body.

 

[AndyOrch]

Well unless the county court is way behind there is something wrong here.....I would ring the county court that the claim was transferred to or MCOL and check the status verbally...you really should have received a Proposed Notice of Allocation by now.

[disneygirl]

Thanks for the advice Andy, much appreciated, will do that tomorrow

[AndyOrch]

Worth a call for all you know Lowell may have Discontinued and failed to serve notice on you.

[disneygirl]

Hi

Followed advice and rang MCOL on 4 separate occasions

each time after about 5 minutes of spiel I was informed "You are 51 in the queue" or "65" or "48". Remembering a post from dx sometime ago I did not wait.

 

So, next tried email (3) to County Court Business Centre (CCBC) explaining that I as the defendant was trying to ascertain the state of the claim within the court system. Included case number.

 

The only replies I have received are automated headed "Let us help you by filing your electronic Court documents correctly".

 

I have tried being proactive, I guess now I will have to be reactive and wait until someone contacts me.

 

Thanks for all the help and advice.
