Can a 'lost court case' incurred fees(winners costs) be included into a current DMP ?

Galeeno

if you are a in a court case, as a claimant (plaintiff) in a court case, and you eventually lose the case,

and have to end up paying the defendants costs (say the defendants put a cost of £20,000 for the claimant to pay, if the defendants win their case), and they get the courts to ask the claimant to pay this £20,000,



(if the claimant cannot afford to pay this £20,000, they have no savings and no property, no assets)



Then if you are already in a debt management plan (Payplan for eg)

then can this debt of £20,000 be included/added to the debt management plan? (by phoning payplan)?


This is about adding a NEW court debt from the lost court case, to a current (already debt management plan)

It can be added but the existing creditors might be unhappy about the reduction in payments and re-instigate interest etc as you have broken the agreement by not paying the correct amount
