    Court date letter arrived today, court date set for October 28th
    Doesn't give you long to do your WS and evidence then!

    Can you change your thread title as I seem to recall you did recognise the vehicle (and have defended) so the title is now confusing!

    Did not and never have recognised the vehicle.

    Oh good! Sorry I'd forgotten this detail, which will be the basis for your Witness Statement:
    The thing is, this is the first time i have heard about this and in the letter it says it is for a car i have not owned (i don't drive), it's not mine, and i have no idea who has it. I'm from the north and the fine says it is from the south which makes it more confusing.

    Received an email from DCB today with their witness statement attached. Today being October 22nd, and the hearing being October 29th. Can this be claimed they submitted later than 14 days?

    My maths makes that seven days; but that is the WS served on you; do you know when it was filed on the court? If you have proof it was late, you could ask the judge to disallow it at the hearing.

    Are you sure you have your court date correct? In this post: 7 October at 6:23PM you stated that it was set for the 28th October. You don't want to be showing up a day late and being slapped with unreasonable behaviour costs.

    I have no information on their court filing date, just that they have filed it. I suspect they have filed it late, perhaps due to the ccbc email being closed - auto response after email sending: This mailbox is now closed, your email will not be actioned

    I really hope you didn't send your WS there.  Nothing in the NEWBIES thread tells anyone to do that.  Surely you didn't?
