    Then as that date is around 4 weeks before the hearing date,  and your decision must be before the 24th December,  I suggest that you check if the hearing fee has been paid on Wednesday 10th of December,  giving you almost 2 weeks to ask for a free with consent adjournment , if they actually paid the hearing fee

    Wait until then, then look at the options if the fee hasn’t been paid. Meantime, don’t give Moorside any ammo to keep you on a string hoping you will cave. It’s a game of poker. 
    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.

  • Worst case scenario, the hearing goes ahead and I lose and I'm made to pay, what are the options? Could I pay in installments or would that result in a CCJ? Obviously I dont want a CCJ, but equally may not be able to pay within 30 days being on maternity pay

    The judgment would have to be paid IN FULL,  within 30 days, no instalments,  has to be IN FULL to avoid the CCJ
    Thank you - any idea what the cost would likely be?

    A typical loss in court for a single pcn claim is around £212

    Interesting, even losing in court would be cheaper than paying their "final offer to settle out of court" which currently stands at £240!
