The Claimant has to pay the trial fee of £27 by 8th July 2026. I will scan and post the court documents asap.

Hi DWMB2,

We have received a Court Hearing date in August 2026.

There is now a requirement for us to submit a bundle to the court and plaintiff, in chronological order, indexed (by 4pm on 21st March 2026). Should this include emails prior to the Statement of Claim? We were sent various threatening emails from DCB over several months, including one with a PCN, but this was not included in the Statement of Claim. DCB have still not sent us a copy or photograph of the contract they argue we have breached.

Is there anything else you would recommend? Legal Authorities for example?

Finally, do you believe DCB are likely to proceed to the hearing, allocated for 90 minutes?

Thanks.

Hi Jackisback123

I overlooked a reply to your post with the Street view of the location where the offence is alleged to have taken place. My apologies and thanks for that.

This was very interesting as it shows a ‘Bunnings’ sign (they purchased and rebranded Homebase) where the car park was.

Bunnings stopped trading in 2018 and the brand reverted to Homebase under new ownership.

I have asked, in our defence, that ‘The Claimant is put to strict proof with contemporaneous photographs’.

The Particulars of Claim state that the driver/keeper was parked at ‘Homebase’ in, ‘breach of the terms on the signs (the contract).

The ‘date of the contravention’ is December 24th 2019. The Homebase closed in March 2020 (and has been demolished along with the car park).

It will be interesting to see if the Claimant provides photographs of adequately visible HOMEBASE signage that constitute an enforceable contract.

Thanks for the swift reply. Thought it was prudent to double check.

I'm putting the final touches together and have a friend who is a Criminal Barrister with 30 years call... Translates into knows nothing about this area of law but very good at cross-examining me for any additional evidence I can put to the judge!

Thanks DWMB2,

I had and used the draft order, found using the link, but I would like to potentially quote the Case in question and Name of judge who heard it?

I accept it may not be helpful but would like the details if possible?

Hello again,

b789 kindly provided a Defence template in their post [June 03, 2025 06:41pm] which referenced;

4. '....a draft order approved by a district judge at another court.'

Please could I have specific details of this case / Order so that I can quote it in our defence to the Judge?

As, 'The court struck out the claim...' it could be very helpful.

Thanks.

Hi DWMB2,

Apologies...I didn't have time to explain that the Claim History I asked about does show a filed DQ but I was not sure if this was merely the short version on the N180 form – rather than the full version you kindly assisted with months earlier.

With luck the new defence will do to satisfy the Judge.

I am putting it into a Word Document ready for submission (wherever it is best sent). Let me know if there is anything else I should consider adding?

Hi,

The location is here:
https://maps.app.goo.gl/asjjgtim89NkTjUBA

The trouble is it used to be a Homebase carpark which has since been demolished. The car park has not been in use for years.

How would you recommend submitting the full defence? Is it via the portal or to the Court? I also do not know if it should be on a particular form (such as a N9B that I Googled)?

Thanks.

Hi,

I managed to log in to the Money Claim Online portal. There is no evidence the defence has been received. It reads as follows:

Claim History
DQ filed by claimant on 30/07/2025
You filed a DQ on 09/09/2025
Your claim was transferred to GUILDFORD on 11/10/2025

Here is a link to the screenshot:
https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/0eq95nnaafy7ram9mow1w/Claim-History.jpg?rlkey=g6v1h9yf14hbzvuchw4jantrp&dl=0

Should I submit the existing template defence & our draft order again? If so what is the best way to do this?

Hi DWMB2,

Did you get the linked files ok? If so I'd like to make the link inactive now.

I'm a little worried about the deadline and how / what defence should be submitted – given I submitted the suggested defence already.

Thanks.

Thanks for the Images Guide.

Please find a link to a folder containing the redacted Claim Form and PCN.

Hi DWMB2,

I would be happy to upload the documents, or email them. How would you like me to do so?

Thanks as always.
