Housing deposit query

Hi Guys,
Not sure if this is the right forum to post tbh.
I filed a claim against my landlord as he never protected my deposit and never returned it to me.
I had a letter saying he filed an acknowledgment of service and he's indicated an intention to defend the claim.
What does this mean? How can he defend it, if I have all the proof he never registered the deposit?
Thank you

whenever someone is taken to court, whether for a criminal or civil matter, they have the right to enter a defence. That is the basis of Brtish justice!
Until you see what the defence is that he presents, how can we comment on it?
But if you have proof of his failure it is unlikely any defence can succeed.0
