What should have been done by 28th??

 

I thought the witness statement and evidence was due in no later than 14 days before the hearing which was yesterday/today depending if we count the 22nd

Apologies it 7 days before the hearing for your contact detail...phew 

 

Witness statement/evidence must be filed today 14 days pre hearing

[Ginni1062]

Yes point 3) b) states that I must provide the court with a direct dial telephone number on which you can be contacted at least 7 days before the hearing date.

 

We are well within that aren't we? 

[AndyOrch]

Yes Ill make a start on the statement....you inform the court you contact details today.

 

You can email statement /evidence to the court and defendants solicitor later then post out hardcopies over the weekend.

Witness Statement Evidence Australia Visa..pdf

[Ginni1062]

That's amazing!!!

 

Do I need to attach any docs to the bit where it states I wish to rely on? Just not sure what to attach here.

[AndyOrch]

Yes you will have to type in the name of the docs and list them where I have made space then attach copies to the statement. I would include the main documents Visa application and declining the position if you have a copy and anything you wish to disclose.

 

Feel free to add to the statement if I've missed anything significant.

 

The best I could do given the time restraints and of course not having the claimants statement to refer to.

[Ginni1062]

[Ginni1062]

[AndyOrch]

[Ginni1062]

Thanks!!!

[Ginni1062]

So my court hearing is this Wednesday between 10am & 12:00.

 

I'm just wondering what is going to happen, I know it's over the phone now but how does it all work? Will they fire loads of questions at me etc? Do I need to be prepared?

 

Thanks,

Ginni

[dx100uk]

stick to your statement, don't get taken in by any implied stuff or blatant lies stated by them, stand your ground.

[Ginni1062]

Ok, thanks for th advice. I just want to try and be as prepared as possible for this

Morning guys,

 

The court resolution has been adjourned for 6 weeks as CLI need to get more evidence from Dongara Marine as what evidence he brought forward was the document off the immigration visa agent which showed the outstanding fees and my signature.

 

I clearly stated that this wasn't a document from Dongara Marine and this was the immigration visa document with the fees on and it clearly states that the sponser is 100% liable. This then shocked CLI and he has asked for the case to be ajourned as he needs more evidence as that's all he has with the sound of it. 

 

The court then actually asked what this debt was and thought it was a credit debt which I then explained that this was not a credit card or loan or any debt but a visa application that Dongara Marine offered to sponser me and my family and I would pay them pay at $200 a week out of my salary when I started working for them.

 

So she adjourned this and told CLI to get more evidence and that me and CLI should talk but I don't have to. I clearly stated I've been advised not to speak to CLI and I don't want to speak to them as I don't know who they are? How they have got my details? And also, they have been sending threatening letters stating they are coming to my doorstep. CLI then really started apologising for all this and just want to resolve it once they have got more evidence but they don't want to take it to court and they want to speak to me to try and reslove it once they have tried to get more evidence.

 

The court lady said that it will look bad if I don't try and speak to CLI if it goes to court? Is this true? Do I need to communicate with these even though I haven't entered any agreement with them at all. She then said Mr (ME) ..... doesn't want to communicate with CLI and I don't know why and that he has been advised off someone but I don't know who not to communicate with CLI.

 

Do I keep ignoring CLI or do I need to communicate with them in case it goes to court and it looks good for me.

 

Thanks guys,

Ginni

 

 

[dx100uk]

Pers id ignore them.

you are winning hands down without doing much, they are burying themselves without your help.

 

they shouldn't be using the court system as a debt collection tool by issuing a speculative claim thinking a defendant will simply wet themselves and cough up

 

well done!!

 

DX

[Ginni1062]

Oh I hope so!! 

 

Thanks @dx100uk

[AndyOrch]

Well done Ginni sounds promising. Do not assist the claimant to verify its claim...they are the claimant and must justify its claim on their own.

 

Andy

[Ginni1062]

Cheers Andy

 

With the sounds of it CLI have just received all my visa application from Dongara and they don't have a clue about the case.

 

Oh we'll see what happens next, I doubt there is anymore evidence they can get from Dongara as there isn't anything
