It would ensure that neither the Claimant, their solicitor or HMCTS would be able to use an out of date address - either by mistake or intentionally - on further communications.[Deleted User] said:The address has been updated with DVLA. What would the data rectification notice accomplish?
Yes if you weren't the driver.[Deleted User] said:Should I remove the drivers name but still denie being the driver?
At best, having the driver's name in your Defence could lead to confusion.
At worst, it could lead to the Claimant deciding to issue a new Claim against the driver.1 -
This ensures that any further communication goes to your address and that way you do not miss any important information - you should tell the CCBC of your address unless you have already done that when completing the AoS.Daver1978 said:Hi all, thanks for the advice, just a couple of questions.The address has been updated with DVLA.

Against which of the two of you is the court claim made?[Deleted User] said:I was the driver, my wife is the registered keeper.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum.

Ahhh... new information.[Deleted User] said:I was the driver, my wife is the registered keeper.
So your wife is the named Defendant - is that right?
If that's so it is most important that everything is done in the name of the Defendant. Of course you can help, but do take care with this point.2 -
As we expected. So everything we've advised stands. She doesn't NAME you![Deleted User] said:Claims against registered keeper.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

And to pre-empt your next question...
If this ever gets to a hearing then yes you can attend the hearing and speak on behalf of the Defendant.

Surely my case as the driver a member of the gym be stronger?0

I take it my strongest argument is she wasn't driving, which she wasn't. Would I have to prove this in some way.0

It is not your case to defend.Daver1978 said:I take it my strongest argument is she wasn't driving, which she wasn't. Would I have to prove this in some way.
If you thought your position was stronger than your wife's, then you should have come here for advice and she could have transferred liability with one email, by naming you as the driver before court action commenced.
She is the Defendant because she didn't transfer liability to you when she could have (the whole of 2022 when letters were arriving, she could have).
This is her case. Not yours.
The strongest argument IS NOT that she wasn't driving, unless the PCN was 'non-POFA' but the Newbies thread explains all of this, including the law about keeper liability (IF they used it...).PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
