Thanks a lot Coupon-Mad. Will look that up an post back if confused.

OK I'm confused. Help please. Looked at half a dozen threads and can't see who to write to get the hearings/claims merged or any templates? Is it the Court or the Claimant? Many thanks.

Coupon-mad

Obviously the court...

Did you do the search properly? Changed to show results as posts?

For your second claim...

With a Claim Issue Date of 31st January, and having done the Acknowledgement of Service in a timely manner, you have until 4pm on Tuesday 5th March 2019 to file your Defence.

That's just over three weeks away. Loads of time to produce a perfect Defence, but don't leave it to the very last minute.


When you are happy with the content, your Defence should be filed via email as suggested here:

Print your Defence.
1. Sign it and date it.
   
2. Scan the signed document back in and save it as a pdf.
   
3. Send that pdf as an email attachment to CCBCAQ@Justice.gov.uk
   
4. Just put the claim number and the word Defence in the email title, and in the body of the email something like 'Please find my Defence attached'.
   
5. Log into MCOL after a few days to see if the Claim is marked "defended". If not chase the CCBC until it is.
   
6. Do not be surprised to receive a copy of the Claimant's Directions Questionnaire, they are just trying to put you under pressure.
   
7. Wait for your DQ from the CCBC, or download one from the internet, and then re-read post #2 of the NEWBIES FAQ sticky thread to find out exactly what to do with it.
