  • Hi everyone

    Thought I would give an update on my case.

    Notts lost my questionare. So had to redo it in timeframe.

    Eventually had case transferred to my home town from Notts, but Notts seemed to have also lost my defence, so my hometown asked for me to resend it in. I resent in the defence as requested within 14 days time schedule. I received confirmation by letter from court saying defence received and that a copy was also being sent to claimant. 

    I then received a letter in May of Allocation to small claims track (hearing) mentioning unless claimant pays a trail fee or properly completes application it will be struck out by 25th may without further order. hearing to take place 15th June. 

    I then receive an email on 17th May/23 from claimant stating below:

    There was a form attatched of discontinuation. 


    But I've looked on the MCOL website and I see nothing. I have also not received anything from the courts stating discontinuation. Recent tarnsactions just show transferred to my hometown.

    But if it is, thank you all for your help and the information to get this sorted. You're all stars x

    And you Madam will now become a star of the DCB Legal Discontinuation thread. Well done you for resilience and determination in seeing this through to it's predicted conclusion. 

    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.

    MCOL isn't relevant at all.  But it is over!

    Yay!  

    Very good news! Discontinuance = a win. 

    ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST!

    One favour please!

    We need you - as a genuine PPC victim of aggression, sharp practice and an 'extortion' attempt to add £70 - to respond robustly to the Public Consultation on the level of parking charges and banning of the false added DRA 'fee' that too many honest motorists currently fall victim to.

    It will need consumer input (powerful voices) but change is afoot. It's taken about 5 years to get to this stage:

    Please now Bookmark BOTH threads and set up email alerts on your posting profile, so that you get an email alert when we post there, as we will, once the Public Consultation opens - anticipated in a few weeks...

    NOW ANTICIPATED IN JULY/AUGUST!

    We need people like you and your driving family & friends to respond in high numbers!

    You have a personal story to tell about the culture of getting a roboclaim 'legal' firm to add a pointless £70 for their own profit, to be let loose to intimidate people.  I am sure you want your voice heard to stop this happening again.

    The Public Consultation is coming.

    Well done,
