at the moment its your defence you concentrate on
it could be a few months before your local court needs your evidence and witness statement etc
I suggest you read this weeks winning case by claxtome

and you might win , or they might discontinue , or the judge may strike it out on procedural grounds etc
I’m sorry, but our enthusiasm and drive in the fight that we put up, helping hundreds of people every day, of every week, of each year, can so easily be deflated by a defeatist comment like:might just pay it so i can get some sleepPlease 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. .

We don’t get very much sleep at all. Most nights I go to bed knackered from the daily inputs, and Coupon-mad, who inputs the most, is often still helping people at silly o’clock in the early hours of the night/morning almost every day, 24/7/365.

Jeez, it’s Civil Enforcement for goodness sake. They’d be even more scared than you of appearing before a judge!
