key arguments for and against compound contractural threads

[Gez]

I went into court today for a claim using unauthorised rate. The defendant didn't turn up (surprise surprise). They have sent a letter agreeing to pay the whole claim, all the interest, costs PLUS S.69 8%. I never asked for the 8%, so that was nice of them, it must be that gesture of goodwill they were on about

The hearing lasted about 30 seconds. The judge asked "you didn't expect the defendant to turn up did you"? "you will get whatever you ask for because to defend it, we require that they reveal their costs, and they won't do that".

 

They pulled out my short & curlies once, now I have theirs..

So you have judgement based on your POC which included the unathorised rate?

[Gez]

No, this was a hearing for directions. The judge said if they don't pay within 7 days, contact the court & they will issue a hearing date.

Their offer was not made without prejudice, and their failure to attend today, without an explanation will not help them at all..
