Free Traffic Legal Advice

hi guys so just to give an update in this, dcb legal decided to proceed with the claim, and sent which the court has made me aware as well as them via email.

my mcol shows the following in updates:
Case Stay Lifted on 16/05/2025
DQ sent to you on 16/05/2025
DQ filed by claimant on 16/05/2025

I have also received the N180 dq,

to which reading off the forum and other members posts, I have now replied to,
I have downloaded a form, and emailed the cnb and the dub legal,
I have agreed to mediation and asked for a face to face hearing.

I assume the next steps will now be the mediation call to which I will offer zero.
followed by me eventually submitting my defence... my question is will it the same defence I submitted the first time or will it be amended now... I may need help at that stage. thanks

hi the defence is still not showing on the mcil which was emailed In, I did get an automated reposnce about taking 10days, but was under the impression to check back the next day and it show in the history, is this normal or should di call the court or resend them email?

HIb789

thank you so much for this, I called the court this morning regarding the deadline, and was advised if the system is allowing you to submit the AOS, then go ahead and do that, and they kind of explained that its a race if the claimant hasn't applied for the ccj, which they had not as it was still 9am-10am, so I did proceed to fill out ads, which did update on the system, although yes the final response date should have been yesterday, never the less I have also emailed in with the defence and order in a single pdf now.

do I still need to log in to file a defence online through there portal, or the email is sufficient?

and also the basis of to being thrown out is to do with the poc, if it goes to court will I have a chance to tell the court I appealed it and furnished details of the driver so liability should have been moved over anyway? or should that have been in our defence?

thanks

hi thanks every1, im a first time forum user, I have tried to gather as much knowledge as possible so thanks to the forum, it has helped me to do a aos extension on the last day!, so I now have 14 days to file a defence, ive looked through the forum with loads of defences but not sure of they apply to me.

quick brief the driver who was not me, (I am registered keeper) was stuck in a private industrial estate in north east London as the road was blocked with traffic due to some event, long story short received an (invoice for alleged breach of contract!) from close unit protection services ltd. t/a cup enforcement last year, I appealed directly with them I wasn't driving, car was not unattended, signs were not clear, fee was excessive, have not entered in to contract .
they never replied to  the appeal n just kept hounding, eventually I gave them the drivers name and address and said you can pursue her if you wish.

I have received a claim form for which luckily I replied to with an ackonwlegment of service (today was the 14th day including the extra 5th) so now have 13 days left to file a defence and need some help.

particulars of claim are as follows ( I'm hoping they have not given as much details in this regarding the contract but it does say the date and address) also they have pursued me as the driver when I clearly told them I am not!!! so most the defences online ive found are mainly to say the poc isn't sufficient.... can some 1 help me add the fact that I wasn't even the driver and that I had appealed twice and eventually furnished the details of the actual driver who should be pursued??? I note that DCB have still pursued to hearing and that some cases have not been struck off with the pic 16.4 rule... fellow forum members?  any advice appreciated or draft appreciated.
