Hi Guys
Does anyone know what evidence, if any, a county court judge would expect one to provide (as claimant) as the basis for rejecting a derisory payment offered by a former tenant debtor against whom a CCJ has been secured?
The debtor in question has offered to pay £20 per month for a debt of £1,600.00 in response to a court warrant issued against her for the recovery of the debt.
Thanks in advance.
Andy

a vast majority of landlords are good at what they do but there is a small minority that like to think they are beyond the law

With respect Peter, what relevance is that to the subject matter?
Back on topic, Robert is right regarding something is better than nothing.
Our powers are indeed somewhat limited but in matters like this payment often comes from family members rather than the debtor even if there is little in that way of assets.
It’s a commercial decision. HCEOs cost £60 to instruct and charge £90 (£75+VAT) if they’re unsuccessful. Just be sensible about the likelihood of recovery.
