    What do need to know that's not in the WS and evidence section of post 2 of the NEWBIES thread?

    After reading that section, your best bet is to search the forum and copy a RECENT one from 2025 which is about the same solicitors.

    Dear All

    I have just received an email from DCB Legal with the N279 Notice of Discontinuance. 

    I would like to thank everyone on the forum for your support and guidance especially Coupon-Mad and Le-Kirk who helped by reviewing my defence statement. 

    My last question is. Do I need to do anything with the N279

    Kindest Regards

    Thank you @UKteak51 for the copy of your NoD. I can now get this counted in the DCBL Legal thread of shame. 👍 
    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.
