    OK and of course page 2 tells you your WS and evidence deadline. No need to show us.  You have the deadline in that letter.

    See the NEWBIES thread WS & exhibits list. You have to prepare as if it will go ahead and meet the court directions, even though we all know that DCB Legal will no doubt bombard you with desperate offers to 'settle' and will finally discontinue in 2025, just before they have to pay the hearing fee.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Tada!

    We act for the Claimant in the above matter.  

     Our client has instructed us to discontinue Court proceedings and close our file. Therefore, please find enclosed the Claimant’s N279 Notice of Discontinuance for your records
    Yay, well done!  As predicted:
    we all know that DCB Legal will no doubt bombard you with desperate offers to 'settle' and will finally discontinue in 2025, just before they have to pay the hearing fee.
    Yep!
    ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST!

    IMPORTANT: please show us the NoD here, or your success can't be counted in the DCB Legal 'disco' thread by @Umkomaas

    I'm sure you want to stand up and be counted!
