ECP / DCB Legal court claim

gavino76

hello guys. today is the last day of the 30 days in which to respond to the dcb legal LOC.

I will email the template in the newbies thread and include my name and address, as the driver, to: info@dcblegal.co.uk

I also owe everybody an apology, as i have been using this website for a few years now and have noticed my old threads, asking for help yet not continuing them or posting the results. Far too much info but have not been in a good place last few years. So, apologies.

No worries. Could you update them for us?

EDIT - thanks! I see you already did.

There was some discussion earlier in this thread about who should respond to the Letter of Claim.
Did you follow that guidance?

But only the keeper can name the driver this late on. Surely we advised that already?

im sorry keith i just don't get it. i included my name and address on template , assuming that this was the driver being named

The law allows the keeper to name the driver, procedural point, such that the keeper who may have had liability can extricate themselves from the situation, leaving the named driver to sort out their own problem 

The law doesn't state that the driver can absolve a keeper, only the keeper can transfer liability, if they want to be sure that they followed the law , but they must do the transfer, 

The justice system has always relied on procedures

so i have messed up. should i have included in the template that i am the keeper and i am naming the driver?
i did say in an earlier post that i was sending the template including my name and address

The registered keeper should do it, not you, you are not the registered keeper 

The registered keeper names the driver, its that simple
