    I mean what I said. Read the POC again!

    😁

    Use the special version for claims with no specific breach pleaded. It's linked twice in the Template Defence thread, so you honestly can't miss it and my signature tells you how to hop straight to page one (where the announcemrnt threads are at the top) so we won't be linking the thread.

    The claim has to set out the facts it relies on (CPR 16.4). "Remained on private property in breach of the displayed T&Cs" doesn't say which term was broken or how. You may assume it's an overstay, but that's your guess, not their pleading.

    The court decides on what's pleaded, and you can't properly respond to an allegation that hasn't been made. That puts you on the back foot, having to guess their case when it's their job to set it out.

    I'm a random person on the internet. I hold no legal qualifications and nothing I say is advice.

    Good. Now follow the 8 steps - no need for advice - but come back when you get your notice of discontinuance please, in 2027, as we are collating evidence of them.

    Just wanted to check before I return the N180 form is it better for me to ask for a hearing or let the judge read the case documents & make a decision?

    Better to push for a hearing, even if it never happens in practice

    But

    The 8 steps explains how to fill in the downloaded N180 DQ pdf document ( not the paperwork. ) before emailing it to the lawyers involved and to the CNBC. in Northampton. ( you definitely do not "return it " )

    The 8 steps tell you this already - and to download it - so don't fill in the paper form.
