Maybe post a copy to the named Judge and a copy of your summary costs assessment, and ask for your costs on the indemnity basis for the time wasted so far, at £19 per hour LiP rate.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

@Redx it was set for manchester court. I will email them and ask to make surer than sure.
@Coupon-mad could I really claim costs in this case? I have incurred genuine costs (aside from many hours spent on this)1
