Ok I'll resubmit. Thanks

Oh dear!!!!! What a SNAFU. You can do what you want. What you cannot do is anything on behalf of the named defendant!! Everything has to be in the name of the defendant!

If it's the N180, just resend it in the defendants name.

When I resubmit should I include the other email addresses you said to when I originally got my N180 form or just the address that was included in today's response?

Yes

Not even going to bother advising. You have redacted one of the dates which is crucial for considering this. As it is for a completely different PCN, start a new thread for this one.

You simply offer £0 to settle, and if the mediator wants to talk about your defence you point them to the one you have submitted and make a formal complaint after the call if they push it, you do not discuss it with them and they are not part of the legal process. It’s a box ticking exercise, and would only last an hour if you were serious about settling, but once you make it clear that you’re not then that will be that - the mediator will make your £0 offer to the claimant and it won’t be accepted. Done. Boxes ticked.

It will stay in the court process until the deadline for payment of the court fee, at which point DCB Legal will discontinue.
And you’ll only know that date when you get the notice of allocation to your local court.

Search the forum and you will see that DCB Legal invariably discontinue, it’s not the £27 but the cost of time and effort to send someone to appear in court. They use the process either so that you ignore it and they get a judgement in default, or you’re frightened into paying them.

Call the court on 22 January if you haven’t heard anything.

You have to provide a Witness Statement earlier, so keep an eye on that date, but don’t file until the claimant does.

Copy that. Thank you

In case you missed my update, you have an earlier deadline for a Witness Statement.
