DRO and Civil Court

mrdcway

Hi i am just about to pay the last payment for my debt relief order application.

I have just currently had a bad break up with a partner who is threatening to take me to civil court over a coffee table and some other low value furniture.

Would i be exempt from civil action being taken against me because of the debt relief order?

Thanks in advance if anyone can help me dan

No you wouldn't, as the protection from creditors only applies to those included in the order.
I pressume you are referring to who has (or who should) have ownership of goods in your possession??
I seriously doubt that anyone would go to court (althought I can believe they might threaten it) over a coffee table - but in the unlikely event they did then you would get a chance to defend / put your side.
