    Why not just continue to follow that checklist you were using when you filed a Defence?

    Points 8, 9 and 10 on that list answer your questions.

    Definitely NO to a hearing on the papers. Reason: 

    I am not content for the case to be heard 'on the papers' because that seems to disproportionately give an advantage to a legally represented party. I feel strongly after all the intimidating demands from this aggressive parking firm and its agents, that I need a voice at an attended hearing.

    Mediation is now mandatory (if the claim was issued after 22nd May 2024). It is a 5 minute phone call where you offer £0.

    Just in case anyone was following this post - I received a court date of January 28th back in November. However today I have received notice from DCB Legal that they are discontinuing court proceedings! Thanks to everyone on this post for their support and I'm pleased to now put an end to the matter :)

    Excellent news, they appear to be discontinuing dozens of cases this week 

    Please post a redacted picture of the N279 NoD form, so that @Umkomaas can add your case to his discontinuations thread,  growing by the day

    If we don't see the NoD we can't count your success. I'm sure you want to stand up and be counted in our ongoing Government evidence!

    Just jingled over to the disco thread. 👍
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

    Looking forward to being tagged in on those. I'm sure the total DCB Legal discontinuations is going to rise at the start of this new year.
