Does your MCOL Claim History show your Defence received by the CCBC?

Maybe post your Claim History here - it's only a few lines.

They do have 28 days to respond, but that 28 days starts after they have received a copy of your Defence from the CCBC.

The CCBC sent you a letter, or will send you a letter, saying the Claimant had twenty eight days to consider your Defence.

What you don't know is when the CCBC sent a copy of your Defence to the Claimant. 

It follows from that that it is not known when the Claimant has to respond to the CCBC. 

Further, we don't know what delays there are in the CCBC that means they don't send you a DQ as promptly as you might like.

Can I suggest that you keep checking your MCOL Claim History and as soon as you see that the CCBC has sent a DQ to you, you are ready to download a DQ, complete it and fire it back to the CCBC, remembering to send a copy to the Claimant of course.

Standard guff. Were you not expecting that from them?

No surprise there.

Item 7 on that list you were following when you filed your Defence says...

iad77

Ok letter just came in the post dated the 12/02/22 ... Received on the 17/02/22 

Notice of proposed allocation to the small claims track.

I must by 1st march complete questionnaire n180 and file it with the court office

There's then also a "would you like to settle your case without going to court" ex730 sheet

Le_Kirk

Then you go to the list, points 8, 9 & 10.  The ex730 seems like mediation and should be declined.

I'm not sure where those points are in the list... Can you maybe highlight point 8 and I can find it from that... Thank you ...
