Help regarding Charging Order

  • So could she just pay Asset Link Capital in small payments and that will be ok? I think she would be happy to do that.

    What would happen if she did nothing? They haven't done anything since 2002.

    Yes, but if the debt is in another persons name, and that person dies, the debt dies with them, therefore again, it needs to go back to court to be removed.

    They are still required to go back to court and request the courts permission to enforce the debt.

  • All the paperwork is in her name and so was the original agreement.

    Hummm, let me get this right

    She (In the property now) had a loan?

    She defaulted on the loan?

    The creditor issued legal proceedings against her, resulting in a charging order being placed on the property?

    At the time the charging order was awarded, she was NOT listed with any assessts, i.e she was just living in her dad's house paying rent / board?

    Am I correct?

    Was she defintely not listed as a co owner on the property in 2002 as the creditor needs to prove ownership by way of land reg docs that they must file with the application for a charging order before it can be issued?

    Can you get land reg docs to show the date that she was added as an owner? xx

  • Looking at the CCA, She was on it and her father was on it. They both signed it in 1996. I think the loan must have been in his name and her name second.

    No idea about the charging order, it all happened without her even going to the court. No idea what happened.

    She doesn't have the deeds or anything. It costs money to get them and she doesn't have any.

    Sorry cross posted - its possible then that the Charging Order was originally against her father only if he was jointly liable for the debt x

    OK, to condense the current situation these are her options

    a) agree to a payment plan with the creditor

    Or

    b) Inform the creditor they must seek the courts approval to enforce the debt, the creditor must then explain to the court why it's taken them over 6 years to enforce the debt.

    Hmm thats interesting because there is no record of a CCJ on her credit report regarding this debt.
