HUG A DEBTOR
If you find the county court bailiff is taking longer to execute your warrant of control, here’s why. Warrant of control centres are being established in 12 locations—some are already operational—to which there will be referral of all warrants, whether issued either on a paper request to a hearing centre or an online request to Money Claim Online. Over a period of around 12 days, the centres will attempt to engage with debtors with a view to organising a pay up and giving support. Cynics might suggest this will give even more time for the home cinema equipment to be dismantled and that the High Court is looking even more attractive for enforcement of a £600-plus county court judgment. How a creditor’s application to abridge notice to the debtor of an intention to call, possibly to nil, will be dealt with, remains to be seen.
