Can you get 2 CCJ's for the same debt?

I had a CCJ for a catalogue in 2008 and didn't pay it.

I now have a new bailiff threatening to do another CCJ for it.

Are they able to do that?

    No you cant get another CCJ for the same debt, I suspect the company is trying to intimidate you to pay up by threatening another one. You say bailiff it could be that they have been instructed to enforce the debt if you have got a CCJ and not paid as the court decided you must do at the time of the order then they may well be looking to enforce the courts instructions. I would urgently contact CAB as well as the court to see what stage it is at. More details may be helpful than what you have posted to help further, such as have you had any correspondance since the orginal 2008 CCJ, have you moved and not informed the court?
