Good advice and Zac1 should follow it
I think what might have happened is that John Smith owed the rent and was sued as Jean Smith
I think some parties didnt turn up perhaps also John Smith who might have been told he didnt have to
(would you answer someone else's sumons ?)
because it sounds as tho there was no application to have the case dismissed
(which if I had turned up I would certainly have applied for)
and then and then suddently they find John SMith that is, he findsthat there is a CCJ default judgement against him
perhaps aargh even in JOhn SMith's name !
in whcih case he needs CAB advice

PP - I think you're speculating! If (& it seems to be a big IF) "it was thrown out of court" as the OP said, then it was dismissed - not left in limbo. The Court doesn't just leave it hanging in the air - they either make a judgement for the claimant or dismiss it (i.e. find for the defendant), or adjourn. Just part of the inconsistency of the OP.
