    No form needed, as long as you put in the subject line:

    I haven't received a DQ as of yet, should I be proactive about chasing it?

    When did you submit your defence? How soon were you expecting a DQ? Have you researched it on the MCOL website? Does the NEWBIES FAQ sticky, post #2 not cover this?

    Didn't the court write and tell you that the Claimant has 28 days to consider their options?

    The court will not be sending you a Directions Questionnaire until that hear from the Claimant that they want to continue.

    I sent the defence at the start of April and Gladstones informed me that they had told the court of their decision to proceed on 3rd April. I will continue to wait for the DQ. Thanks

    Can I also confirm the following - I received another court claim on 18th March, does this mean I have until 4pm on 23rd April to file my defence? I already submitted my acknowledgement of service before 14 days after issue.

    That's correct.

    Hi, I know that the court hearing happens at the defendant's local court but I wanted to know what happens in the event that the defendant moves. I currently live in the South but am due to move in the next 4 months, will I still need to attend at the court that is local to me currently? Thanks

    You can nominate any court (with a good explanation, if at face value it looks a bit nonsensical).

    Hi, just wanted to get some advice; I am due to move out of my area in early August and this will see me relocating about 200 miles from the county court that I am currently local to and where the case has been assigned to. So far I haven't even got onto the "witness statement" stage, therefore, without doubt I will have moved away before the court date.

    Two questions:
    1) Is it possible to change the allocated court in the event that neither the defendant nor claimant are local to it any longer?

    2) Would it be better for me to have the hearing on paper given the situation?

    Advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
