If they cannot prove that a mortgage was held can I write off the debt

I was taken to court in march by my mortgage company. They were claiming the full £60000 owing including the arrears. I requested discovery of all relevant documents, in other words to prove the debt. Nothing was sent. I turned up on the day only to find the case had been adjourned. Four months later the case was reinstated this time they were asking for just the arrears to be repaid. I again asked for discovery. No documents were forthcoming. When I attended court the company did not show up and the judge just drew a line through the court papers and said action struck off. I am beginning to think that the company has lost the relevant documents proving that they are owed money on the mortgage. I was wondering if they have will I no longer be liable for the mortgage?
