    • Now that is an interesting article which adds afew perspective that I hadn't thought significant - but on reflection of the perspectives offered ... Now Starmer is no Blair, however 'blairite he may be perceived, but the Tories aren't tories and aren't even remotely liberal   The fast 'unannounced and unexpected election call from sunack may well be explained by the opinion linked that he hoped reform would be unprepared and effectively call a chunk of Farages largely empty bluster - making him look even more of a prat, leave scope for attacks on shabby reform candidates and mimimise core vote losses to reform - while throwing the 'middle ground' (relative) tories TO THE DOGS - and with the added bonus of likely pacifying his missu' desire to jogg off to sunny cal tout suite somewhat   thumb in the air - I expect about 140ish tory seats, but can hope for under a hundred Reform - got to admit the outside possibility of 1, maybe 2 seats with about 8% of the vote - but unlikely. I think projections of over 10% of the vote for reform is nudged and paid for speculation - but possible with the expected massive drives from Russian, Chinese and far right social media bot and troll prods targeting the gullible.
    • Commentary June 2024 WWW.ELECTORALCALCULUS.CO.UK Interesting article about just how bad it could be for the Tories.  Also Tories could be hoping on Reform not having candidates in many seats, as they were not ready.  
    • Even a Piers Morgan is an improvement and a gutless Farage Piers Morgan calls for second Brexit referendum WWW.THELONDONECONOMIC.COM Piers Morgan and Nigel Farage have faced off over Brexit and a second referendum in a heated reunion on BBC Question Time.   “Why don’t we have another referendum about Brexit?” he questioned. “I seem to remember when 2016 came around we were told there was going to be control of our borders and it was going to be economically beneficial to this country. And eight years later we have lost complete control of our borders… and economically it seems to have been a wilful act of self-harm.”   ... Piers missed off : after all somebody said a 48/52 decision would be "unfinished business" by a long way - was that person just bul lying (again)  
    • when did they (who) inform you there was a 'police case' and when was this attained? i will guess the debt is now SB'd as it's UAE 15yrs. have you informed the bsnk ever by email/letter of your correct and current address? you can always ignore anyone else accept the bank,  Block and bounce back all emails.

    • I left Dubai 8 years ago and intended to return. However a job prospect fell through. I’d been there for 15 years. I decided to pay my credit card and the bank had frozen my account. There is no means to pay the CC so completely unable to pay when I wanted to other than the bank advising me to ask a friend in the UAE to pay it on my behalf!  fast forward bank informs there is a police case against me for non payment. Years later IDR chased me and after months/ years they stopped. Now Judge & Priestley are trying their luck. Now I have received an email in English and Arabic from JP saying the bank has authorised them to collect debts. Is this the same as IDR although I didn’t receive anything like this from them. Just says they are authorised?

    • 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.

the judge cant do that if you respond as told too

they have till xx date to file their skeleton, then you have to 7 days to retort it.

you'll be doing that by the looks of things so the judge cant complain.

job done and free!

I have dropped an email to the judge just to clarify if the next hearing is purely about their application for summary judgement or whether it will be a ruling on the whole case.

I've had an email from the court telling me it's inappropriate for the judge to speak to me out of court so that clears nothing up at all.

I'm wondering if I can fit "Vigilantibus non dormientibus seccurit lex" into any argument to repudiate any skeleton argument that they may put forward? In particular with regard to Maritius Shipping v Employment Relations Tribunal where I believe that the court ruled that whilst within time, the application had not been made sufficiently promptly?

I've still not amended my defence, although now I finally have the right forms. Do I need to put in the exact details if I amend my defence or can I just say something like "Due to not adhering to the requirements of the Consumer Credit Act this debt is unrecoverable"?

I'll be honest, this is affecting me hugely. I'm full of anxiety, I'm losing sleep about it and having this hanging over me is really affecting my life.

Looks to me you cannot do anything until you receive their skeleton argument for you to do a rebuttal. 

 

Have you received the direction order from the court yet saying when the claimant has to send their skeleton argument to you?

I still haven't received anything from the court.

 

Talking of which, should I advise the court of dates that I'm unavailable for?

What happens if they schedule the hearing for a date when I'm away?

Hi folks,

Not to be too paranoid, but I'm a month away from the hearing date and there's stuff that I'd rather Drydens didn't know about the case that I'm going to put to the court.

I would imagine that if I put up specific details on here about what's been happening with my case to date it'd be easy for them to work out which case they refer to.  Please reassure me that this is very unlikely.

Ok, here's where I'm at. 

Spoke to a free law advice clinic and they advised me to ask Drydens to consent to an amendment to my defence.  Wrote out the defence and a draft consent order and sent it to them with a deadline to reply. Got no response. Emailed them on the deadline day and got no response.

Got an N244 form and filled it in, sent it to both Drydens and Erudio but when I took it to the court I found that the court had closed 5 minutes before I got there.

Just as I was about to go to the court the next morning I got an email from them saying that they had signed the consent order.  The received date of the email was 6 days after the deadline I'd set.

The following day, when they must have received the N244 forms, my amended defence, and a claim for costs, I got an email saying that they would be fighting the N244 as they had replied to my email in time - they enclosed a copy of an email that was dated 6 days before I actually received it...it's almost as if they had just manually changed the date.

They also said that they'd replied in writing but to an "old" address - even though the address for reply had been clearly put on the form and has been the one that they've been sending all previous correspondence relating to the court case to. 

Funnily enough, I've not received this reply in writing, even though I have access to post at that address.  It's almost as if they had realised that I was going to go through with this and then were trying to backdate everything to make it look as if they had replied in time. 

No matter, I was able to tell them that I had fortunately not submitted the N244 to court and would instead submit the consent order.  They also offered a response to my amended defence and an offer to settle in advance of the court case.

They have accepted that they have been served with the Amended Defence and today I received a copy of the order from the court allowing it. I shall be sending this onto Drydens and Erudio on Monday morning.

I am minded to make an offer to settle in advance of the case.  I have a figure in mind that would be worth paying simply for my peace of mind. I would appreciate your input on how to make this Without Prejudice offer.

I'm fairly convinced that I will win at court but the amount that I'm going to offer, if accepted which I doubt it will be, is small enough that I can afford to pay it and won't even cover their initial court fee.  It would purely save me having to attend court and it would mean that this isn't hanging over me for another month.

i  would concur they appear to be on the back foot, as it stands with all you've been through, it would not have dragged on so far if drydens were so sure of their stance. they would have forced it through, they didnt..speaks volumes.

So, say a case was stayed and then the solicitors submitted an N244 asking for an order that: 

1) For the defence to be struck out, and/or
2) Summary Judgement on the whole claim; and
3) A costs order against the defendant

But made no statement about requesting the stay be lifted, would that mean that they had done it wrong?


Scratch that...they made the request in the witness statement.

:classic_cool: Ideally there should be directions attached to the application what the application is requesting.

Does there have to be a reason for a delay for them to apply to lift a stay? 

I can see that there if a) the defence is that the amount has been paid or b) if it is not defended or admitted then the claimant MUST submit a reason for the delay, but I can't see where it deals with this if a defence has been submitted?

The longer a claim is left stayed the more a legitimate genuine reason is required as to why when making said application. A judge would question why a claim was issued initially if the claimant wasn't ready to proceed once a defence was submitted and then make consideration whether to allow the application to proceed.

Claims have been issued in the past simply to stop the limitations clock and park the debt to stop it ever becoming statute barred.

Of course visa versa a defendant can make application to lift the stay (although unlikely) knowing that the claimant is not fully prepared to proceed with its claim for various reasons.

Stayed claims normally fall of the system after 3 years but I have seen older resurrected.

I understand that, but from what I understand under Part 15 of the CPR link here - 

It says that in cases of a claim where either the amount has been admitted or not defended, or where it is claimed that the amount has been paid the claimant MUST submit a reason for the delay.  I can't see where it deals with claims where any other defence has been submitted.  I think the wording of "MUST" is important, which is why I'm asking.

Yes I've already previously stated. There cant be a stay if a defence has been filed unless the claimant didn't respond to proceed or one or either party have made an application to stay the claim.

Ok, but there was a stay on my case after a defence was filed.  Here's the timeline - 

Early Jan 2020 Court proceedings issued against me through MCOL
Late Jan 2020 Defence Submitted
Then nothing happened and the case was posted as "stayed" on MCOL.
Then suddenly in June 2022 they applied for a lift on the stay.

Shouldn't the case have been struck out after they didn't respond to the defence after Jan 2020?

If you go back and look at Post 80 in this thread you can see me asking about it back in 2020...I think it's on Page 3.

That's only 2 years 5 months delay as per initial post I have seen stays in place up to 5 years then the claimant successfully applied (with reason) to lift the stay.

In your last post you said that "There cant be a stay if a defence has been filed."  

Can you direct me to where is says that they "MUST" give a reason for a delay where a defence has been filed?  


This would be very helpful if I can quote it in my WS when I go to court.
