    Burnt the midnight oil whilst grandkids slept. Have cross checked with original and hopefully not too many typos due to latetness when done. Copied and pasted amended defence word document into comment box however did not accept strikeouts and coloured fonts so have printed and attached photos.

    A heads-up - the SoT states "amended WITNESS statement"

    Also missing the "t" at the end of "brough" - di you copy & paste?

    Good amendments.

    What 'comment box'?

    An amended defence doesn't go to the CNBC admin centre on MCOL. It goes to your local court.

    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    "Comment box" - I was refering to where I typed the message to the forum - where it says "Leave a Comment". Hope you had a good weekend - no late nights - I know I'm a night owl but I think you are too, when I see the times on some of your posts. You all contribute so much. Thank you

    Yes I've got the contact details. The N24 General Form of Judgement had my local courts correspondence had details on - I just need to verify email address. I will also copy claimants representative in. the email.

    Just in after long day out to find this waiting - am convinced they are out to get me but I won't give in despite the havoc it is playing on me and the thought of having to compile my WS with very little to support my defence due to the time scale since the alleged parking incident. Now need to start researching what it all means and looking for other similar posts. Does the initial response within 5 days of receiving the order include weekends or does it refer to 'working days"?

    I'm not too sure what is meant by point 2 on page 3 - I will take a quick look at CPR27 before retiring for the night.

    Search the forum for posts by me with the words Dispute Resolution hearing.

    It's just a short prelim hearing: case management, like it says.

    Any deadlines are obviously calendar days.

    Recieved this morning by email from the sharks

    DCB settlement email 110526.jpg

    The "outstanding balance is £60" puzzles me when the POC states a claim of £284. They give me 7 days if I wish to settle!!

    1. Do they have to pay a court fee for "Dispute Resolution Hearing"?
    2. Am I correct in thinking my witness statement and any associated documents etc will need to be submitted by 18th May for hearing date on 1st June?

    I've read through a couple of posts on DRH. I'm not the most confident of people in oral situations and this scares me. I have no evidence, as such, except that I KNOW a pay by phone transaction was made following the provided instructions and a message was received back "no charge payable". This was accepted in good faith. I have followed all advice given.

    All the legal jargon throws me and the more I look into things the more confused and frustrated I get. I can dig my heels in too much at times.

    Answers to your questions 1 & 2:

    Don't know but you do because all the case requirements are set out in the DR Order.

    This isn't your burden to prove. It's theirs!
