Unenforceable Consumer Credit Agreement cases – Update
The Judicial Communications Office has issued a statement in light of the activity surrounding the recent case heard in Chester County Court by His Honour Judge Halbert and the speculation and misreporting which followed the hearing. Contrary to some reports, there is no general stay on cases challenging the enforceability of Consumer Credit Agreements.
Cases of this type will therefore continue to be heard and decided on their own particular facts, although the Court may group similar cases for trial, where appropriate, in an effort to save costs and time. Further consideration is also being given to the transfer of selected cases to the Commercial Court in London for definitive ruling where new questions of law have been identified.
