Okay this might seem petty but it's really getting on my nerves. Long story short, got bitten by a dog, was cycling on public road, reported to guards (cos the woman wouldnt answer the door to me)... she rang me after guards contacted her, admitted liability, said she would pay.
After I posted her two letters(with bill for expenses), and hand delivered a third .... received half of the money about two months later with a sob story saying that she would pay the remainder over the next few months. Six months later I sent another letter saying if she didnt pay me by Dec 1st I was going to my solicitor. she has not responded.
1. Do I have the right to request a statement from the guard who was present when she admitted liability, in case she lies when I bring her to court.
2. Do I have the right to request that the dog be put down, as a threat, if she refuses to pay. The dog bit one more person before me, which the guards also knew about. Wouldnt normally go this route but I'm sick of being nice about it cos it's getting me nowhere.
Thanks in advance.
