You do have the Particulars of Claim - there are in the box headed 'Particulars of Claim' on the first page.
(you might want to remove your car reg no from that box)

Those PoCs are woefully inadequate.

Since 1st October Claimants need to provide much more information.

You need to highlight this failure.
See the first few paragraphs of this defence:

Thanks I have removed my reg. What do you think of my draft defense is there anything I should add apart from the new protocols that claimants need to ahead too Since 1st October? Is the length and structure ok?

Post #15 and #17 asked questions and gave lots of advice.

Have you read any recent Gladstone defences?

Look again at post #2 of the NEWBIES thread and read some of the defences to see how yours might be improved.

Here's another defence you might like to pinch bits from (again, linked to from the NEWBIES thread):

Could anyone provide some feedback regarding my defense above I need to submit this on Wednesday. Thanks

Redx

actually , its overleaf and not been edited despite several replies telling you to refine it

it doesnt even have a statement of truth at the bottom , so is incomplete

if you really wanted help , you have had 2 to 3 weeks to refine your initial draft and post the final draft on here for checking

until you do that , you wont get somebody to critique it with a red pen

I've already done that. You appear not to have noticed.

Perhaps you could show us your updated draft?

I have received a letter from Gladstones Solicitors stating:

"We act for the claimant and have notified the court of our client;s intentions to proceed with the claim.

Please find enclosed a copy of our client's completed directions questionnaire, which will be filed with the court upon their request. You will note that we intend to request a special direction that the case be dealt with on the papers and without the need for an oral hearing

This request id ought simply to make.... thing straight forward and keep cost low.. we trust you agree

You will note our client has elected not to mediate. Its decision is not meant to be in any way obstructive and is based purely on experience , as mediation has rarely proven beneficial in these types of cases. Notwithstanding this, our Client would be happy to listen to any genuine payment proposal that you wish to put forward."

I have also got a Directions questionnaire (Small Claims Track) from the county court and Request for special direction pursuant to PD27 (2.4) with a blank form Notice of allocation to the small claims track (no hearing) which I have no idea to do with.

What should I do if I want to carry on with this case?

Read some more of post #2 of the NEWBIES FAQ thread where you will find that Bargepole's walkthrough tells you exactly how to respond to that.

Post #2 of the NEWBIES FAQ thread really should be the first place you should be looking for guidance at this stage.

HTH, please read more Gladstones threads so we don't have a Groundhog Day every day.

You say you 'have no idea' what to do with the form Gladstones enclosed. You would have done, had you read even ten Gladstones threads. Not just the 4 links I've given you, we mean seek out more and read them for yourself.
