Gladstones- Small Court Hearing Date

Normsface

Hi All,


I posted some while back regarding a small court claim from our beloved Gladstones.


I wrote my defence and sent off, and requested that the hearing was not on paper, although it has now been allocated to small claim court and the judge has considered it suitable for a written hearing. It did have the option to request this orally (again), but I have stupidly missed the deadline for this (i thought it was the same date i had to file the papers Jan 3rd).


I wanted to check;


1) Is it imperative that this heard Orally or do i stand a chance on paper?


2) I just wanted clarification that the original statement i sent in is the one I send this time round too?


3) With Evidence, is there a right way to present this on paper. I have screen grabbed various reviews of the same carpark to further evidence that so many people have been stung in the same way, as well as companies house information in regards to Will Hurley and John Davies, it all looks a bit copy/pastey though, will this be an issue?


I have read the newbie thread, regarding the beavis sign i need to send etc and have all that ready but ANY other helpful tips and hints would be greatly received.


Thanks as always

You should keep everything related in the one thread.

Copy and paste the above into your original thread and just let this one die

Also can i add; I've just spoken to the court and they have advised I can email to request an oral hearing (although it may be ignored) but must cite my reasoning, could anyone help with that too?


Thanks
