It's the way that you do it
Series: Estates Gazette ; (0236) 7 September 2002, 145(1)Publication details: 2002Subject(s): Summary: Considers two cases "Godwin v Swindon BC" (2001) and "Anderton v Clwyd CC" (2002), the central issue was whether the correct date of service of a claim form was the date when it was received of the date when it was deemed to have been served under the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) r 6.7. The key points that emerge are that the date of service of a claim form is irrelevant, as the courts will consider the deemed date of service under the CPR. Claim forms can be deemed as being srved on a weekend or a bank holiday, and courts rarely retrospectively cure a defect in the service of a claim form.| Item type | Current library | Call number | Copy number | Status | Barcode | |
