I emailed the court as per option 1 in reply #36 and asked them to strike it out but I received a reply stating:

“The court file and the email dated 9 July 2025 have been referred to Deputy District Judge Beaumaris, who comments as follows:-
“The case remains listed for an attended hearing on 6 August 2025”

This seems quite unfair considering I now live in Northern Ireland. I will email the court and request if I can join via video link, unless tjere is any other advice prior to the hearing?

Thanks. What is the likely total cost they will claim if they win? They are only claiming for £256 for the amount claimed, court fee and legal costs. Can they claim more than this? There wouldn’t be any point in paying for forms that cost more than the amount claimed.

Confirmation from the court that the hearing is now vacated and rescheduled for 6th August. I spoke to the listing contact and stated that in any case I now live in Belfast and would not be able to attend any hearing in Manchester. He is going to speak to the judge and see if the hearing can be moved to Belfast however this would likely be under a different legal jurisdiction. Let me know what next likely steps would be from the claimant or anything I can do next?

Yep updated and sent!

The guy called me back and was very helpful. He asked me to send an email copying in Gladstones and also his personal email. The judge asked him to get me to send the same email I sent a few days ago (as advised in prior post) but copy in Gladstones so the other side is made aware. He will take it to the judge and by tomorrow latest the hearing will be vacated

Scratch that. Spoke to a more senior person on the listings team and he’s off to find a judge asap. He said it will most likely be vacated as I’ve clearly moved address but will call me back today or tomorrow to confirm. Watch this space!

On the phone with the court. The hearing is still set for 9th (Wed). He is advising to fill out a N244 form for a judge to review. Is this correct?

I haven’t heard back from the court yet but did receive this email from someone acting for the claimant asking if I want to settle. Would there be a chance they will pull out of this prior to Wednesday 9th’s court hearing? I’d be reluctant to settle

Thanks I have emailed this to the court. If they don't respond is there any way I can attend the hearing via telephone or video link?

The claim form was sent to my Manchester address and is dated 15th Jan when I still lived there. The AoS on 28th Jan also has my Manchester address. I emailed a DRN to both Gladstones and Euro Car Parks on 28th Jan to provide my NI address. The trial pack I have now been emailed has a Notice of Transfer of Proceedings dated 26th March and stamped 8th April stating that the claim has been transferred to the county court in Manchester. This is the first I have seen this. There is also a Notice of Allocation to the Small Claims Track (Hearing) dated 17th May. I was emailed the Claimants Witness statement from Gladstones on 25th June. This is written by a Rashpal Chana from Birmingham, an employee of the Claimant’s company

Yes I did that the next day on 28th January. I sent a DRN to both Gladstones and Euro Car Parks. I have the emails. Gladstones data protection emailed me back on 6th Feb with a letter to state that they have updated my address, but would not erase the data. The hearing is on 9th July. I only found out about this a few days ago when Gladstones emailed me a trial pack. The AoS has my Manchester address on (which was correct at the time) but 2 months later I moved to Northern Ireland. I sent an email to the court this morning (7 days prior to the hearing) that I have moved to NI and wouldn’t be able to attend the hearing in person and if I could attend via video link

This has not gone away and I’ve just found out that they are progressing to a court hearing on 9th July 2025 in the county court. Letters were being sent to my old address which I no longer live at, however, Gladstones have emailed me a trial bundle ahead of the hearing. I now live in Northern Ireland so it is not possible for me to attend the hearing in Manchester. Previously I joined the mediation call and as advised I fid not agree to any settlement figure. Is there any advice at this stage? I wasn’t expecting them to proceed to a court hearing

13
A mediation appointment is now booked for mid-March. I can see the advice on the other thread is just to offer £0 and the call will end quickly. It does state “You will need to briefly explain your claim or defence to the mediator. You should prepare for yourself a brief summary of the main points”. Should I just read out the wording from the original alledged PCN?

I have now received a N180 Directions Questionnaire (small claims track). What info should I provide in this?

It asks if I think the claim is suitable for determination without a hearing?

It also asks about mediation, expert evidence and witnesses

Thanks
