    Good Morning,

    I have now received the following letter. I am not sure that I have done this correctly as it is from Coventry county Court which is not my local council. Will I be able to change this to my local court or will I have to travel to Coventry? It does not confirm a date or time for me to attend court either and I have not received anything else as of yet.

    I know I now have to prepare my witness statement  and I know there are examples of these that I can read through for guidance but I can’t seem to find them. Can you supply links please?

    Any other guidance on what I should do next would be appreciated.

    Is Coventry not your nearest County Court?

    Which court did you state on your DQ form?

    Look again at your Notice of Allocation. 

    On the second page, is there not a paragraph something like:
    Each party must deliver to every other party and to the court office copies of all documents on which he intends to rely at the hearing no later than [ . . . ] [14 days before the hearing].
    Those 'documents on which you intend to rely' are your Witness Statement and evidence.

    Coventry is UKPC's local court. It looks like you didn't choose your local court when asked.

    Or the CNBC made a mistake.  I think UKPC are near High Wycombe.

    Did you choose a court starting with 'C' and the CNBC has just hit the wrong one on a long online list?  We saw that happen once!

    You must tell the Coventry court manager (phone them) that the CNBC has made a mistake and the case hearing must be moved.

    I don’t recall making any selection of a location but if i did it definitely would have been Bristol as that is my nearest. So i need to contact them to get it changed? 

    Any help with links to witness statements for guidance would be greatly appreciated please

    KeithP - this is the full letter received, are you referring to points 2 and 5?

    It's their preliminary act of desperation before they eventually discontinue. Don't respond to it.

    Oh, I didn't realise you had posted the second page of the Notice of Allocation before the first page.
    Of course I can see now that no hearing date has yet been set.
