Court Claim received, need a little reassurance that I'm in the right direction

Yeah, it happened fast, claimants rep attendance he gave 50. I’m trying to figure out the rest.

Sounds like it
Absolutely no reason ANY costs should be awarded to a legal rep - theyre paid to be there, and unless the D acted unreasonably, the court cannot award any such costs

robertcox999

Is there anything I can do about this? Should I just pay when I get the order?

nosferatu1001

Of course you pay
Frankly why wait. You dont want to find out the order is sent late and the deadline passed. 
Your only route for further action in this claim would be an appeal. Do your research on this before even starting the conversation. THere is so much discussion on this forum.

The only comeback is if the Judge 'erred in law' and that can include an error about the quantum.

But what did the Judge say about the Salisbury appeal, everything in your WS explained that the Semark-Jullien case is a damp squib and is NOT authority that adding £60 is suddenly OK.  It is still double recovery.  Nothing has changed...did the Judge get steered the wrong way about that?

To be honest, he barely made any comment on why he made his decisions, basically just saying he disagreed. I don’t think he mentioned the Salisbury appeal at all. He said the case isn’t distinguishable from Beavis, the signs were clear, a contract was able to be formed. As I said, imagine reading through my WS and then saying I disagree after each paragraph and that’s what his judgement was like, barely any explanation. Aside from skimming over Salisbury ofcourse. 

Equally infuriating is that the claimant rep lied by saying my in situ photos could have been taken at any time and their stock images were the ones in place. Why would I randomly take comprehensive photos of a car park before and after signage had been changed? Was i planning the perfect parking contravention, what kind of boring life did they think I have!


At the end, the costs order went so fast I could barely hear what they were saying to each other. I think the claimant rep mentioned CRP or something to justify their attendance fee...that ring any bells? Will I get a summary that will tell me what happened?

CPR , look it up

be careful what you say about a judge on an open forum or else you will be into defamation and libel or worse !!!

it sounds far fetched to me but could cost you much more if the legal profession take exception to your comments in public

we understand you are fuming, but making public allegations can be extremely serious and costly
