Crankboy – I reckon setting up a “Common law fee-schedule enforcement company” from the shed and advertising it on FOTL type places could be a lucrative idea – we just need to cut and paste a couple of letters from Marstons, and then throw in a few (even more?) quasi-legal phrases, some random capitalisation and a few too many commas, print them onto some parchment paper and then charge a tenner a letter to send them out, jobs a goodun!
Dear SIR OR MADAM
Letter before action etc… Blah blah
If you do not settle this fee schedule in 28 days we will apply for JUDGEMENT against you in a COURT of LAW
Month later:
After a hearing in COMMON COURT on th November 2015, the JUDGE, having reviewed the evidence submitted has found you GUILTY, you must now settle the attached fee schedule within the next 14 days, any further delay will see you liable for DEBT RECOVERY action and you may be visited by a BAILIFF.
