Hi

I need some help with a Court Bundle and my statement. I am an applicant (litigant in person) in a case which hopefully will be heard just on submissions. I have submitted my statement and supporting evidence as a court bundle (mailed it to the court - signed for delivery).

What do I have to provide the respondent before the court date? Is it just the statement or a copy of the whole bundle?

IIRC it is the whole bundle.

What does the order say?

Thanks for the replies.
The order does say certain supporting documents which the respondent already has.
I have added to these documents in the bundle so I think I should send a copy of the whole bundle to the respondent.

It should say something like the Claimant is to produce the bundle by X date and lodge and serve. This would mean a copy to the court and one to the Defendant.

It does tend to be easier to simply lodge a full copy of the bundle with the other side then you, they are the judge are all looking at the same document pile when it gets to a hearing.
