Farming girl-if a CCJ HAS been issued & NOT ENFORCED for 6 years-the company has to get 'leave of the court' (forgotten exact wording!) to enforce it & explain WHY it was not enforced for 6 years to the judge. In my experience most creditors won't do this-too expensive-& shes dead! Let us know if a CCJ has been granted-if not its statute barred.

P.S. Ask DEBT-DOCTOR (search on forums) -he's currently working as a debt advisor for CAB. He'll mirrir what I say & give you more advice on her estate & the 'ccj/statute barred' situ. DON'T call/write-acknowledge-if not statute barred its close-if 5 years 10 months & you acknowledge debt-6 year clock starts again! If 6 years plus it IS statute barred.

Hi,


Death and wills is not my strong point, have a look here;

If a CCJ was obtained within 6 years of the debt becoming payable, then that debt can never be Statute Barred.


You certainly have responsibilities in dealing with an estate - you should think about employing a solicitor, and paying them out of the proceeds. Get a fixed price quote if you can.
