Ok, i filled up the memorandum of appearance (courts.ie) got it stamped in my local district court office and have sent it by registered post to dublin. Do i have to send a copy of the appearance to the plaintiff as well?
decided to defend the case myself.
How does the case proceed? Am I correct in saying that this is not a case as such and that a judgement is decided by both sides submitting affidavits? Have I to hand in a memorandum to the cental office of the four courts in person or can it be registered post?
Joe is confusing the summary process with the plenary process.The plaintiff will not be serving a statement of claim.
Do you owe the money? Summary proceedings are issued by plaintiffs seeking a liquidated sum.
Once you put in an appearance the plaintiff can then issue a motion seeking liberty to enter up final judgment. This motion will be heard before the Master of the High Court. You can put in a replying affidavit and the master will refer the matter to the judges list for plenary hearing only if you can show a genuine dispute.
If you do not put in an appearance the plaintiff can lodge papers in the central office and obtain judgment in default of your appearance (ie the next thing you will know about the proceedings will be the sheriff knocking on your door)
@whiskey1 did you or your solicitor enter a defence?
