Thank you LoC will forward to that email address and will include both when emailing them in future.

I filed Kezza15's new witness statement by post (and the WS she used in her case) as evidence in my case to the court today.

Also posted the same 'drop hands' offer to Claimant's solicitor incase they didn't receive email as suggested by CM. (just cost first class stamp)

Going to 'serve' tonight, send via email, to Claimant's solicitor the same Kezza15's new witness statement (and the WS she used in her case) I filed with the court today. I will include the FOI request/reply that I only got back after I sent my original WS. Will include a further 'suggestion' to dismiss claim.

A quick question to forum if I may.
Can I use MCOL system to see what the current state of my court case is?

Loadsofchildren123

Wouldn’t have thought you can once it’s been transferred to your local court.

So how do you know / how can you tell the current state of a court case?
(Do you have to phone up)
How do you find out if a case is being discontinued ?

LoC is correct, MCOL has no further connection with your case once it is allocated. The only way you know if it has been discontinued is if the NoD arrives in the post

You will always know the status of your case as, if anything changes you be notified. You can ring the court to discuss you case but only the allocated court - not CCBC or MCOL.

However you'll be surprised by how little they can tell you

some people phone up and ask if the hearing fee's been paid - when were they supposed to pay yours by?
If they haven't paid, the court should technically issue an order that the claim be struck out, but often they don't realise the fee hasn't been paid (until you make that call). Often they pay the fee late and get away with it.


It's worth phoning the court to ask if the fee's been paid and if it hasn't ask for the claim to be struck out (the directions order usually sys fee to be paid by x date and if not paid claim to be struck out).


The status of your case is "live" and going ahead until you are notified otherwise.

I am sure it was mentioned on the second page about paying costs by a certain date. Checked - it was mid September so will phone up tomorrow to check they paid it.
Thanks for the heads up.

Phoned court today.
Yes they have paid the court fee and case is still currently going ahead.

Getting closer with my skeleton and paginated court bundle.
Some questions if I may that I would like answering today if possible please:

1. Do the defendant documents in a court bundle need to be copies that show a signature?
2. Now I have produced a paginated court bundle, originated bundle wasn't paginated, can I alter ‘the version of my WS in the bundle’ to use the new paging scheme when referring to exhibits?
3. In the legal authorities (cases) bundle –> If the claimant is relying on a legal case I assume if I want to argue against it I need to include in the legal bundle the relevant parts from that case that back up my argument so I can hand to judge on the day?
4. Related to 3 -> Do I need to include all Legal cases from my defence/witness statement even if not still arguing that point in my skeleton?

Thanks for reading
Less than a week until court...
