Response to Possession Order

from pendle (pendle@amun-ra.demon.co.uk)
You say that you were made redundant whilst pregnant - I was under the impression (although I may be wrong) that an employer couldn't do this. You may benefit from seeing a solicitor who specialises in employment cases to see what your rights are.

In any event, you should submit a defence to the posession summons.

In your defence you can say that for whatever reason you couldn't meet your repayments and were paying £100 per month as a token payment until you got on your feet. Get copies of bank statements or other proofs that these payments were made.

You can also say that you're now able to meet the monthly payments plus extra off the arrears.

Usually, if the judge thinks that you'll be able to pay off the arrears, they won't make a possession order.
