    Not yet, no.

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

    Okay, have had the mediation, and interestingly DCB Legal offered to reduce the 'penalty' by 13% straightaway, and then a further 23% after they listened to some of my concerns regarding their pursuing of the PCN. So there is a wait of some 6 to 8 months before the case is heard.

    Am I allowed to use some of the statements (admissions) DCB legal made (in the mediation) in my defence, if this case comes to court?

    Your defence was filed with the CNBC in Northampton, not a court ( no court has been allocated yet. )

    The N180 DQ document stage goes to DCB LEGAL as well as the CNBC

    In several months time you will be required to submit your WS + Exhibits bundle to DCB LEGAL as well as the allocated civil court

    Remember to let me know when you get the hearing date so I can assist with the Witness Statement.

    When I'm allowed to drive again, I am planning to take a day trip with some traffic cones to block the layby and see how long it takes someone to come and move them. :)
