    Have you read CR27.14(2)(g)?
    No, where do I find this?
    It should read CPR ..... he's missed out the 'P'. Civil Procedure Rules.

    This will explain it:

    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. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

    It's actually CPR27.14(2)(g) but it relates to costs on small claims track, not sure if it is relevant on this thread, hopefully @D_P_Dance will explain.

    Ah ok, yes I put this in my last two WSs. Judge wasn't interested. He awarded small amount of costs but that was that regardless of me accusing claimant of unreasonable behaviour.
  • @Coupon-mad @Fruitcake do either of you know if I can amend and expand on my WS from the dispute resolution hearing on Friday just gone in prep for the final hearing? I'm pretty sure I can? Guessing i'm not tied down to the one I wrote for the hearing on Friday? The hearing just gone was slightly different compared to what I want to exhibit at the final hearing. Thanks in advance.

    Yes, you could submit a supplementary WS (if you have more to say) and/or a Skeleton Argument (if what you want to add is just better legal arguments and case authorities: court transcripts.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
