Is this a UNENFORCABLE DEBT ?

[pingupaul]

Hello

 

I have a rather unique problem and although i'm sure that this debt is unenforcable , i would like some clarfication .

 

My partner was recently evicted from a stable / field ,were she kept her horse this was soley due other members malicious gossip .

 

Long story short

 

after been givin just 7 days to remove the livestock ( by law should have been given 30 days )

and after receiving threats of physical violence and harrasment we moved the animals within 2 days ,

we returned any property that had been loaned to us , and also paid fully up to date .

 

We then started to get phone calls msgs etc asking us to return to the yard to clean up the old stable ,

we did not return because the police had advised us that as we had been evicted and as we had logged the threats and harrasment with them ,

then if we did return we would effectivly be tresspassing .

 

..after cutting all contact with the people at the yard we have now recieved a letter from them ( as a business ) demanding in excess of £70 for "cleaning"

 

this is broke down into "hiring a jet wash" "manual labour" ect ect ..

 

..however we never signed ANY aggrement or contract when we first moved on ,

they have no signature ,

they have sent the letter via 1st class post not recorded ,

they have sent it to the wrong address ( mother in law ) .

...is this unenforcable as there is no contract

, signature etc etc ????.......

..Thanks in advance ..

If there is no contractural agreement that yes this is an uneforceable debt.

 

I would suggest that you do not respond in any way, but to keep any letters.

This is as i thought . its a sad situation really ,

had they not forced an unlawfull eviction on us then we would have been more than happy to clean up etc etc .

..but it appears that when you have morals and try to be fair and upstanding then some people mistake that kindness for weakness

and "try it on"...thank you for your advice unclebulgaria ,

 

it is much appreciated .x
