Can any one please help.
I had a court judment go against me as i did not have the right paperwork to evict tennats, and was orded to pay the defendants costs. I paid the defendants costs. Then a few months later the solicitiors involved with the tennants assumed that i hadnt paid and the costs and had left the property. The solicitors sent me another bill of a very high amount. And state the court made a wrong judgment on the initial costs, even though at the time of the judgment one of the solicitors representing agreed to the costs the judge stated as the judge did ask her, her costs. Now the solicitors have sent a bill of costs and say i have to pay these costs, i want to know whether they can do this legally as i had paid the defendandts costs to the defendants as their was no address to pay anyone else and kept proof of payment as i did enquire at the court of whom to pay. And did what i was told on the judgment by the court. I wanted to know if i should be able to fight this as i am worried by fighting the costs will go up further by attending court and more. If l lost. should they be pursuing me or the court for extra costs as i did what i was told by the court. Any advice would be appreciated. And also i have been in touch with the evicted tennants and they confirmed they havent paid the solicitors and are refusing to let of where they live. And solicitors only interesed in chasing me for the payment. Also whats the worst that could happen if i refuse to pay as im genuinely angred by this.

your question is a bit of a rant but i think that what you're saying is that the court ordered you to pay the defendants' costs which you did, but that you paid the money to them and not their solicitors. If i were you i would contact the solicitors and show them the proof of payment you have for the payment you made to the defendants. the money should have gone to the solicitors but i suppose you weren't really to know that. if you have been in touch with the defendants then pass the solicitors any contact information you have for them, and they can pursue the defendants for their costs....i hope that's what you were asking....
