VCS county court stage - witness statement review please
Comments
-
So I’ve had some documents from vcs today including the claimants witness statement and evidence for a forth coming hearing I’ve heard nothing about. The witness statement says this is listed for 24th July.
i don’t really know what to make of it.
it says the claimant wishes to relay on precedent set under Vine v Waltham Forest LBC (2002) I WLR 2383,2390
also quotes parking eye v beavis (2015) UKSC 67 and (2016) AC1172 and in absence of driver details they rely on sch 4 of protection of freedoms act 20120 -
You don't know about the hearing? Have you not had the court letter?
have you filed YOUR WS with the court and claimant? You knew to get this ready.1 -
No I haven’t had a letter0

I haven’t filed anything with the court since my defence statement as like I say I have not been notified anything by the court. To be honest I didn’t think they’d be sitting again yet.0

To be honest I didn’t think they’d be sitting again yet.They haven't stopped sitting, they're just 'sitting' in different ways - paper-based hearings, by telephone, by video link.Please 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. .

!!!
You cant have sat back like this.
Do you know which court its listed at?
Did you not file your DQ? You knew to expect one, as per hte newbies thread
You should have had at least 3 letters sinc efiling the defenc e- DQ, letter allocating to your local court you named in the DQ, and then a court hearing.2 -
Yes I did file my DQ as stated in the thread. I haven't sat back I was waiting to hear. I don’t know why I haven’t had anything from the court .... but I don’t believe that’s my fault??0
-
I’ve checked MCOL. They have my AOS and DQ and it says it was claimant filedDQ and it was transferred to the court I requested. But nothing else - should it say something else if it’s been transferred to court ? It’s so odd that I’ve heard nothing since filing the DQ.0

Once a case is transferred to a hearing court the CCBC, and MCOL, play no further part.2
