    I dont see a problem with you providing that evidence now instead of a few weeks before the hearing date, with your witness statement bundle 

    As you are conducting your own case, you will have to deal with their solicitors and its ALWAYS a good idea to avoid court, they are going to get it at some point, but they may cancel once you send it, they do have a record of discontinuing cases, as seen in the thread by Umkomaas 
    You're right, if I can avoid court then that makes sense. Just not sure if sending my employment contract is a good idea. Wondering if there's any other ways I can prove my employment there.

    I wouldn't be happy sending my contract of employment to them. Send copy of your confirmation email that your vehicle was on the vehicle exemption/White list or ask employer for letter verifying your employment.

    Thanks, I'll do that.

    Hi all, I've recieved the directions questionnaire and have been scrolling the forum and newbie section on how to complete it. However, I can't find a guide on how to complete the 'newer' version of the questionnaire where you can't say no to mediation etc.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

    I thought that it was all the same, apart from that bit. ?

    In which case you carry on with the rest of it as explained in the newbies sticky thread in announcements, plus study the 12 steps in the defence template thread too

    The thing is, on the newbies sticky thread it states to send the completed questionnaire form to DQ.CNBC@justice.gov.uk, however, on some other threads, it says the correct email address is ccbcaq@justice.gov.uk. 

    I just thought there may be an updated guide as the one on the newbie section seems outdated from 2016. I've spent an hour trying to find more recent comments.

    Those are old threads, the CNBC published the new email address ones in early March,  so nearly 5 months ago, they retired the ccbcaq one at the same time 

    I believe that members like Grizebeck and coupon mad have mentioned the new changes whereby compulsory mediation arrived 2 months ago

    Ok gotcha, so DQ.CNBC@justice.gov.uk is the main email address now to send to, along with DCB legals email address.

    Just one more question, DCB Legal sent me a copy of the old N180 form, not the new one. Can I not just send an old copy back too to the courts?

    What DCB Legal do is up to them.

    As the CNBC have sent you the newer version, then you should complete and return the newer version - remembering to send a completed copy to the Claimant.

    Morning all, I have the mediation telephone call tomorrow morning regarding this case and just wanted some advice on how I deal with it. From what I understand, we didn't have to attend before but now it is mandatory, is that correct? I'm not sure if I'm meant to discuss the case here with whoever calls me or if I play a hard line approach.

    Can someone please advise?
