Ha, I didn't even look at the page numbers.

Pages 3 and 4 (of 13) are also missing from the claimant's WS.

The man on the Clapham omnibus would assume that on the balance of probabilities, there are legally binding terms and conditions of the contract that have been deliberately withheld from the court, that favour the motorist.
The claimant is put to strict proof that the contrary applies.

Perfect. I was wondering how I could input that phrase. Nice one.

I received your message. I'll get back to you later. I have to go out to get evidence for a relative's PCN first.

Hi all, I’m pulling all last pieces of the puzzle together. Question: regarding any case I make  reference to, should I be including the full transcript in my exhibits? The pages soon start to add up!

Include transcripts where available. Quote case numbers and extracts from them if you have nothing else. Transcripts are expensive so they are quite rare.

You don't need to quote extracts from Acts of Parliament or Government Regulations as the judge will be able to access them.

Hi all, ahead of submitting today, I have a last question if I may:

1) regarding full transcripts in the Exhibits and the difficulty I’m having getting them to copy over unchanged, would it best I screenshot the important part of the reference case to keep it original, or copy and paste the transcript in plain text format?

Thanks as always folks,

Which particular documents are you having trouble with?

I’ve been trying to input the full transcripts from the cases I’ve referenced but they just paste in plain text format so all line spacing is removed. I have 8 cases being referenced (one of which is 30 pages!!) so I’m not sure whether having the whole transcript for each is overkill…

Sorry, I'm not going to scroll back through 120+ posts looking for them, what is the 30 page document you want to include?

I have referenced Hancock v Promontoria for redacted contract. I thought any references to a previous case should ideally be backed up by full transcript in the exhibits. The PCC failed to provide any transcripts in their bundle.

Another question. If I’m making reference to the claimants WS do I need to add a copy to the exhibits as my court documents state to include anything I plan on relying on? Feels like I have everything including the kitchen sink in my Exhibits at the moment.
