Well, I decided not to bother sending an application for a stay as it seemed a pointless exercise as most cases seem to be going the same way. However, tomorrow is the 21 day deadline for SCM to file their paperwork with the court and myself. I doubt they will comply as they didn't comply with the first order of sending in a court bundle. What steps do I take from here on in, presuming I am right and they don't send anything in?

From reading other links it seems that I must complete the N244 for the removal of the stay that was ordered. So I've filled in the form ready to go with the £35 charge but what do I enter at Part C? I've ticked the box in Part B indicating that I am sending evidence at Part C, but I don't know what evidence I'm supposed to include. BB

Do I need to complete the form N244 to apply to have the stay lifted? Or do I just write to the court using the link above and additional notes?

Mine is at Kidderminster County Court. Thanks for the template, I'll get that done tomorrow and see what happens. BB.

Can anyone give me advice please?

SC&M is SECHIARI, CLARK & MITCHELL - Solicitors, tel. 01273 205381, fax 01273 745356. BB.

O.K. As SCM had not filed their docs by 29th I sent a Directions of non-compliance letter to both them and the court on 30th. On the same day the court wrote to me saying that the Judge ordered that 1. the hearing listed for 12th Sept is vacated, t2. his action shall be stayed pending the OFT case, 3. Defendant within 21 days to a/ file a case summary of under 500 words setting out the effect of the test case on this action & b/ their proposed directions for further management of this case (bloody cheek as they couldn't even send in the court bundle on time!), 4. the Claimant shall within 14 days thereafter notify the court and defendent whether the proposed directions are agreed, 5. upon receipt of above the file will be referred to District Judge for further case management directions, and finally, 6. any party affected by this order may apply to have it set aside, stayed or revoked within 7 days of service of the order upon him. What do I do now? It's not SCM that have applied for the stay by the sound of it, it's the Judge's decision. BB.

Are they all mine? Didn't know I'd put so much on! I find it difficult to find information on a particular point that I need help on by using the "search" tab so it's quicker to start a new thread to ask for the specific thing I need. When a reply is posted with a link to what I need that's perfect. If you need to merge them, fine by me. BB

As you predicted they did not send any documents by the deadline on Wednesday 29th. I have faxed and posted the first template letter to both SCM & Court and have prepared the second one to send out in 7 days time. It's nice to know someone is there to give advice and assistance in preparation of what's likely to occur. I didn't know about the "stay" situation either so many thanks for pointing that out for me. Fore-warned is fore-armed as they say. Really grateful for your help. BB

Actually it was a PM from someone on this site. But as no-one had responded this morning I sent the whole lot to SC&M anyway as well as court and have kept a copy for myself. I was just feeling lazy but my instinct told me to send the complete bundle. I've already found one mistake I've made: I sent the originals to the court and just kept the copies for myself, oh bugger. Well, not a lot I can do about it now. They went by special delivery so at least I'll know they've been received. I'll wait & see if anything arrives tomorrow from SC&M as they also had tomorrow as their deadline and I should receive copies of their documents. I've got a bad feeling about this, having left it til the last minute and making such a big blunder already. Time will tell I suppose. Thanks, BB.

I'm just finishing my court bundle that must be at court tomorrow (hearing date 12th Sept). I was told that I didn't have to send the whole bundle to SC&M, just the witness statement and list of docs. Is that correct? According to my letter from the court, I must send all docs to both court and solicitors.

Hi, I was advised to include some T&C's with my bundle. Didn't have any of my own as I opened my account about 20 yrs ago but some kind person on the site sent me a link so some I could get online. If you are struggling I'll find it for you. BB

Thanks for your help.

I copied all the statements and I'm in the process of photocopying all the sheets now for the court bundle. Where can I find a spreadsheet layout on this site so I know I'm doing it right. Also I need to do a Witness Statement so need to find that as well. I did come across it once before but can't remember how I found it.

I filed online so didn't send a spreadsheet. I had already written to the bank with a complete set of bank statements, charges highlighted.
