Have you acknowledged service of the claim (forum shorthand - AOS)? If so, on what date?
I hope you haven't attempted to submit a defence yet - please confirm.Have you made any form of contact with CEL?If, as you say above, you've been following CEL/PoW threads, you will be aware of the special issues that pertain there - not relevant land (in terms of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 (Schedule 4), land under statutory control, no keeper liability as the main legal points, so you will need to frame your Defence around those as a minimum.How to defend the claim is detailed in the NEWBIES FAQ sticky, second post, where the whole process is outlined.Come back with answers to the above questions (all of them), and you will receive a helpful timetable for you to follow, produced by forum regular @KeithP, normally within the space of the day.
i haven’t acknowledged service of the claim.With a Claim Issue Date of 21st May, you have until Wednesday 9th June to file an Acknowledgment of Service. Do not file an AoS before 26th May, but otherwise there is nothing to be gained by delaying it.To file an AoS, follow the guidance in the Dropbox file linked from the second post in the NEWBIES thread.Having filed an AoS, you have until 4pm on Wednesday 23rd June 2021 to file your Defence.That's over four weeks away. Plenty of time to produce a Defence, but please don't leave it to the last minute.To create a Defence, and then file a Defence by email, look again at the second post on the NEWBIES thread - immediately following where you found the Acknowledgment of Service instructions.Don't miss the deadline for filing an Acknowledgment of Service, nor that for filing a Defence.
I keep hearing about Newbies thread do you know where I could find it?

Hi I’ve just done my acknowledgment of service, is that all I do for now? I’ve spent the last 2 days reading other claims I’m still not 100% sure what I need to put as my defence, but I think I have another week or so to get that in.
Thank you.0 -

Thank you.(Removed by Forum Team)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. .
