Having received your own N180 (make sure it is not simply a copy of the claimants N180), do not use the paper form. Ignore all the other forms that came with it. you can discard those. Download your own here and fill it in on your computer. You sign it by simply typing your full name in the signature box.

Here are the answers to some of the less obvious questions:

• The name of the court is "Civil National Business Centre".

• To be completed by "Your full name" and you are the "Defendant".

• C1: "YES"

• D1: "NO". Reason: "I wish to question the Claimant about their evidence at a hearing in person and to expose omissions and any misleading or incorrect evidence or assertions.
Given the Claimant is a firm who complete cut & paste parking case paperwork for a living, having this case heard solely on papers would appear to put the Claimant at an unfair advantage, especially as they would no doubt prefer the Defendant not to have the opportunity to expose the issues in the Claimants template submissions or speak as the only true witness to events in question.."

• F1: Whichever is your nearest county court. Use this to find it: https://www.find-court-tribunal.service.gov.uk/search-option

• F3: "1".

• Sign the form by simply typing your full name for the signature.

When you have completed the form, attach it to a single email addressed to both dq.cnbc@justice.gov.uk and info@ukcps.net and CC in yourself. Make sure that the claim number is in the subject field of the email.

This will result in the case being allocated to a court local to you, in person, which is what you want.

Just overlay a text box for D1 and set the font to Helvetica 9pt and it will fit.

The saved document is attached to an email and addressed to both the CNBC and the claimant (or their solicitor if they're using one. Also CC it to yourself as "proof of posting".

DO you really want to only receive documents by post? That is. one of the easiest ways to receive a judgment in default because of delays or post that goes missing. Ideally, you want to receive everything by email.

If you want to prevent their emails going to spam, then whitelist their domain (moorsidelegal.co.uk).

You received a copy of the claimants N180 DQ and you have received your own. You have been given instructions above on how to complete your own N180 DQ. Just follow that.

As for the letter, just boilerplate stuff. The claim will soon be transferred to your local court and directions will be issued.

Before that, you will receive an appointment for a telephone mediation. This is not part of the judicial process and there is no judge involved. It is a waste of time but you have to go through the motions. The mediator is not legally trained and all you have to do is offer £0 and it will be over in minutes.

If the mediator tries to suggest that your defence is lacking or anything, you complain and tell them that the claimant has a copy of the defence and you stand by it and then tell us so that a formal complaint can be lodged.
