  • Help Needed - Court Case v Lowell

    Hi. Lowell are taking me to court over an alleged debt and I need some advice. All of the witness statement/evidence etc has been submitted to the court and Lowell. The deadline given by the court was 17th Feb for the hearing on 5th April, however Lowells have now written to me (on 21 Feb) asking me to provide information to them! In my statement I provided information relating to the fact that I am disabled and medically unable to work (Lowell had said they had information that I was working). The evidence I submitted was a copy of my DWP Employment Support Allowance letter. I am in the Support Group (i.e. medically unable to work). I gave information in my statement that detailed what my medical conditions are and how they affect me. The reason for this is that Lowell's behaviour has caused me undue stress and anxiety which has a massive impact on my health.
    The letter I received states that "in order to fully understand your medical condition" I should supply them with a Fitness to Work certificate, hospital reports and appointment letters detailing my medical condition, consultants/GP letters again detailing my medical conditions. Just to give a bit of background about the case, Lowell have consistently failed under their CPR duties, not supplying information requested, not agreeing to any extension etc. Even the evidence they have submitted seems to be fabricated and every time they write they increase the alleged figure owed.
    My question really, is can they now ask me to provide what is essentially personal information AFTER the court's deadline and do I/should I respond and how? Also, as my evidence has now been submitted to the court, could I send this letter as additional evidence to show how they are harassing me? Incidentally the letter now alleges I owe then a further £120 on top of the original claim and court fees. I suspect the court are going to throw the case out based on Lowell failing to comply with their obligations under the CPR rules but I want to be as prepared as possible. Any advice would be really appreciated.
