PPS taking me to court
Comments
-
You will need to issue a Subject Access Request (SAR) - look it up - which you send to PPS with a £10 payment to receive all information they hold about you, including back issues of any correspondence between you and about you.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

Yes I've written that today and will post. Just hoping they get back to me in time before I have to put my defence in.0

They have up to 40 days to reply, so work on the basis that it will not be responded to in time for putting your defence in - don't miss out on that deadline waiting for the PPS response. If you do get it in time, see it as a bonus.
EDIT TO ADD:
Just read back over your thread.
Have you acknowledged service of the court papers yet? I hope you're not talking about filling in the 'defence' box as part of your acknowledgement of service?

Yes I have acknowledged service but not filed defence yet. Just not sure what to base it on which is why I wanted all the info first but your right, it may not come in time0

So I have filed my defense. I did look at the newbies thread but none of the defense templates seemed right for me as I did the stupid thing of ignoring and throwing away all info I had. I filed it yesterday and today I have had an email saying this....
We act for the Claimant and have notified the Court of our Client’s intention 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 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 is sought simply because the matter is in our Client’s opinion relatively straightforward and the costs incurred by both parties for attending an oral hearing would be disproportionate. 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 proposals that you wish to put forward.
What should I do now?0 -
sounds like a gladstones "special directions" reply
look for recent threads with similar wording on here and on pepipoo , then follow the same advice
and no you do not agree !!!0 -
Yes it was. Ok I'll have a look. And I will disagree! Really don't want to go court though ����0
