We have now served the cleaners with a court summons to appear in court this month for a disclosure of information hearing .
They must turn up and bring along ALL documents relating to their business and personal affairs . Savings accounts, bank statements, mortgage or rent statements, Hp agreements, debts etc etc .
Why do they need to bring ALL this information?
A lot of it is confidential and has no relevance. What gives you the right to view it?
Because it is THE LAW--that's why.
It is relevent- because they (the debtor) owes me (the creditor) money .
They have been tried and found responsible in a court of law.
They asked the District judge for 2 months to pay-which he granted and then they just ignored his judgement .
We have every right to send the bailiffs in , freeze their bank account, put a garnashee on them -and a few other options too.Including of course the course we are presently taking --ie - statement of information.
Every time we take some legal action--it costs us money usually £100 each time .
The reason for getting the information is so we will know the debtors assets and liabilities -- and we can then decide which path we want to take which will be best to recover our losses.
They/she now has a CCJ around her neck for 6 years -and even if she pays up- it will remain with her for 6 years-- and rightly so .
Please do not forget - that firm/woman tried to stuff us and steal money from us- for work she did not do.
The only reason she wont pay- is because she does not want to -simple as that .. She is laughing at the Law .
She had a chance to settle things during mediation- and she would not .
Even if she pays- we will probably be £1000 out of pocket .
We have EVERY right to know her assetts .
If you have never trodden this path-- you will have no idea of the stress involved or the amount of work required to win a case .
I must also add - the woman is a blagger and a chancer and I feel she has a lot to hide.
She will have to 'bare her soul' at the hearing and she will open up a BIG can of worms for herself which will be noticed --especially by me .
Look-- she employs 3 or 4 people - she says she is always busy and advertises in every internet search engine you can name .
She uses several different names and 2 addresses.
YET-- she is not VAT registered . Got it ??.
She would not accet a cheque off my wife when my wife went to pay her last year . She said she needed wanted cash because she only goes to the bank every 3 weeks . !! (her residence is les than 2 miles from her bank).
When we took her to court-- she could not produce a copy of the micky mouse photocopy hand written receipt she gave us for the works .
Go figure .
She is also a very nasty piece of work .
