credit card claim - small claims court delay

ma1982

hi all,

i have claimed credit card using this website many times. i have also helped other people claim too, and in one of the many cases in which i was helping someone else to claim we applied to small claims court just over two years ago.

we were dealing with a few cases at the time, and somehow managed to forget about this one - though this was partly because after we received notice that defence had been filed, and responded, we never heard back from them.

this is now two years ago. i am wondering whether this case would have been thrown out or whether it might still be on the books? and why would we not have heard anything?

bit of a bizarre situation, but i'd appreciate any views on what might have happened in this case. thanks.

So have I got this correct?

You were helping someone trying to reclaim credit card charges.
You eventually filed a summons at the small claims court about this claim.
You received a copy of the defence to the claim.

You then forgot all about this claim.

Now 2 years later you are posting on MSE wondering what might have happened to the original claim?

"Bit of a bizarre situation" as you rightly say :cool:

What contact has the person who had the credit card account had with you since that time? :huh:
Maybe they've resolved the whole thing and left you to pay the court filing fee

we were busy with the several other claims, with were all successful. with a bit of disorganisation, it seems we forgot about this one.

is it worth following up on it, or would the time have expired. i'm not a lawyer, i have no idea about courts and their processes.

Are you a politician?

Why don't you answer the question I asked??? :huh:

we see each others families every now and again, and i would be informed whenever we received any correspondance regarding our claims. there is no way anything was resolved, as they relied on me to for resolving cases too.
