DCB Legal - GroupNexus - Claim form

monkeyboy1978

Hi all, back again with another one!

As detailed in the template defence I believe DCB Legal/NexusGroup are stating breach within POC, so I just wanted to run through the response and whether this is adequate under current guidance:

Currently Point 2 continues:
The Defendant, has little knowledge of events considering this was more than a year ago, and has little to add other than admitting that they were the registered keeper and not driver, so questions whether the Notice to Keeper was even POFA compliant.

3. Referring to the POC: paragraph 1 is denied. The Defendant is not indebted to the Claimant. Paragraph 2 is denied. No PC was "issued on 03/08/2025" (the date of the alleged visit). Whilst the Defendant is the registered keeper, paragraphs 3 and 4 are denied. The Defendant is not liable and has seen no evidence of a breach of prominent terms. The quantum is hugely exaggerated (no PC can be £120 on private land) and there were no damages incurred whatsoever. The Claimant is put to strict proof of all of their allegations.

Thanks

"No PC was "issued on 03/08/2025" (the date of the alleged visit)."

That's an old argument. They don't get that wrong any more.

And are you SURE that DCB Legal have specified the breach? They don't usually, for Group Nexus claims.

Show us the POC & tell us the issue date.

The alleged breach is not pleaded

Use the Chan and Akande defence template

The word ISSUED is not pleaded either ( the word Contravention is. )

Your defence refutes the POC, or should do
