      Have you received a Directions Questionnaire from NCCBC?


      I've explained the process in post # 307 >

      Once your Defence has been filed, the court will serve it on Moriarty Law who will be advised that they have 28 days to inform the court if they intend to continue with the proceedings. If they don't do that the claim will automatically be stayed (a pause button) and they will have to pay a fee to make an Application to lift the stay if they later decide to continue.

      If they inform the court that they intend to continue with the proceedings, then you'll be sent a Directions Questionnaire by the court which you must complete by the deadline. On that DQ there will be a box to tick to say 'Yes' to free telephone Mediation where you can settle the claim without getting a CCJ although the settlement will be legally binding.

      If you settle at Mediation but breach the agreement, then the case can be returned to court with the potential of getting a CCJ.

      If you don't settle at Mediation (it fails) then the case will be transferred to your nearest county court and a Hearing/Trial date will be set. You will be directed to file a Witness Statement and any evidence you intend to rely on typically 14 days before the Trial date.

      Di

      If you have been sent a DQ you must respond by the deadline given in the court letter otherwise you may get a CCJ as a sanction.

          • Sorry.

            I've been away working, I see at the end of August Di said she had emailed me, I didn't receive an email, sorry.

            debrag don't despair! I've actually had my day in court with Moriarty Law and won. They ended up having to send me £117 for expenses and my day off work.

            It didn't even come down to the CCA in the end. Won on two points. No Notice of Assignment from the original creditor, they didn't even put their own notice into the documents pack but would have been deemed as not served since they supposedly sent the NoA and the Default Notice via email. I'd have to dig out the judgement but essentially it comes down to more than just providing the agreement. They have to show that they've followed all the proper procedures during the whole process which they couldn't.

            Also ML didn't even send a representative to court and the judge said that if they didn't send anyone to answer questions then he'd just take my word for it. No one there to counter the arguments or answer his questions.

            So take heart, they've got a long way to go yet!

              Did you not do mediation? I have a notice of assignment but sent via email

              Comment


              • No didn't do meditation. Nothing to mediate.

                Assignment and Default Notices by email aren't acceptable. Out of interest who is your notice from? The lender or Lantern? Have you admitted in your defence you've recieved the assignment?

                I'll post up the relevant legalese with these two points later.

                  I've emailed you

                  The most important thing at this moment in time is to respond to the Directions Questionnaire by the court's deadline so that your Defence is not struck out meaning you will get a CCJ.

                  Tick 'Yes' to mediation. If it fails the legal juggernaut will continue.

                  Send your DQ response to NCCBC.

                              • If you get a CCJ you have 30 days to pay it off so that it doesn’t appear on your record. You can also apply to the court to pay by instalments.
