MET PARKING FINE at NUFFIELD CLUB

Is this pretty common?

What, the inability of official court clerks to write grammatical emails with correct spellings? 

Sadly yes, that's normal in 2024.

That and also delay in hearing date?  I was hoping to get it over with.

Also what does it mean when they say the trail bundle hasn't been filed ? Do I need to email the WS and evidence again to court and the other part?

After reading it, I would say yes, they appear to have abandoned the game and when you are both notified of the new place and date that both parties will have to submit their bundles to that actual court before the new deadline imposed by the new court order , even if its the same court. ( But may not be. )

Its like this appointment has been wiped from the calendar, with any and all submissions so far, so its start all over again when the new court order arrives 

But if you disagree with my assessment, the only actual place where you might get answers is by phoning the court 

As an LiP who is conducting your own case, you are expected to liaise with the justice system, whereas the claimant has employed a legal team to do so

The above is correct.  The WS & evidence will need to be filed afresh when you get a new date. One step forward, two steps back!

Some updates on this ,got further comms from the court , it is now going to be an online hearing apparently on 13th nov 2024 . I got the below notice , one weird thing is it says I can't file the WS prior to 3 days before the hearing , has someone got experience with dealing with this type of hearing ? Is it advisable to request them to change it to face to face one.

Regards

The 'bundle' they are talking about is a joint bundle, agreed between the parties and prepared by the solicitor for the Claimant. It's a complete bundle with both sides' WS & exhibits.

In October email the solicitors to push them (again) to discontinue because this is a disputed claim and you will attend the CVP hearing and expect to win.  If their client still wishes to go ahead then add 'please find attached my Witness Statement and exhibits for you to include in the bundle, as ordered by the court'.

I have sent them this today will send the witness bundle after 48 hrs if they don't respond.

Re: Claim Number:XXXXXX - MET PARKING SERVICES LIMITED v. XXXXX Online Hearing Summon XX Nov 2024

Regarding the aforementioned claim, I assert that this is a disputed claim. I will attend the CVP hearing and present a full defence, as I maintain that no contract has been breached. I anticipate a favourable outcome. I strongly urge you to discontinue the claim; otherwise, please provide the correct email to send you my full witness statement for inclusion in the evidence bundle as directed by the court. If I do not hear from you, I will supply it to this email address: defended.team@qdrsolicitors.com.

If you need any further adjustments or additional assistance, feel free to let me know!

Kind Regards

There is no summons.

I am scheduled to have an online hearing tomorrow and asked for the link to join the call , got this in reply , does this mean I may have to carry on waiting for an unknown period , very disappointed as I want to put this matter behind me , it's been dragging on for years. Anyone has a similar experience with the hearing dates ? It's almost as if they are wanting me to miss an appointment and not lay out my case. Can I request an in person hearing at this point ? 

"Further to the above case which is scheduled to be heard at our court on 13/11/24 , please note that the matter has been placed on our floating list .Parties should still attend remote hearing and the clerk / Usher will inform you on the day if the matter is to go ahead or not.

Please accept our apologise for the inconvenience caused."
