Enforcing CCJ

[Lloyds99]

I am a freeholder of a flat where the leaseholder owes me approx £1200 in insurance, court fee's and interest and I have a CCJ for this amount.

 

I have pursued this leaseholder through the County Court, First Tier Court, and back to the County Court and won every time.

 

 

Recently I have employed the Sheriff's office to collect the money but they encounter the same problem as me

- he won't answer the door or acknowledge any callers.

 

 

When the Sheriff calls they can hear activity inside but get no reply.

The debtor doesn't have a car to clamp so the Sheriff is "closing the file" as they say they can't do any more.

 

What can I do?

can I contact his mortgage company and ask them for payment?

Any advice would be most welcome.

It looks like the OP has tried that already......

HCEO's have no power to force entry to (non-outbuilding) residential premises to enforce money judgments unless they already have goods within under control.

HCEO = waste of money.....

Possibly, yes.

 

Does your lease have forfeiture provisions? If so, the mortgage company may pay to avoid the lease being forfeit.

Do you have his bank details - (account number and sort code)? If so a third party debt order is also an option - albeit a pretty risky one.
