Free Traffic Legal Advice

This is not a hearing regarding the substantive matter, surely. It's to consider your set aside request. The WS of both parties seem to be straying from this, IMO.

So much of your WS is predicated on you not being properly served that IMO this question should be front and centre i.e. why weren't you 'properly served'?

Because you ignored their Trace letter and they then served you at your original address.

If service could simply be avoided in this way then the process would grind to a halt, surely.

I cannot see what the Claimant did incorrectly here.

Just saying.....

Thanks for your insights @H C Andersen

Dear @b789,

The judge accepted setting aside the CCJ, but I have 28 days to present my case.

She told me to seek legal advice.

Does the other party present a new POC?

Many thanks!

Hi @b789,

Did the judge read the skeleton argument?

No, because when I asked her, she said she was going to grant the set aside, so she does not need the skeleton argument.

Was the other side represented at all?

No, they were not.

What exactly happened? What about your costs for the application?

The judge was rushing. My hearing was pushed back because the judge had a team's hearing, and she overran the previous hearing.

She said:

She conceded the set aside, but I need to present a defence in 28 days. She ordered the claimant to pay me the fee, and she suggested me to look for legal advice.

She ordered the claimant to pay me the £303

What exactly did the judge say about the claimant needing to send amended PoC?

Nothing, it is just me asking you.

I am still confused if the claimant can send a new POC.

Well done for gettinh this far and getting your fees reimbursed.

Let's wait for the judge's detailed order and next steps.
