    I know this isn't the question you asked, but I thought there were
    rules associated with Cross Examination.

    Was a reason given why the court did not demand an answer? Such a
    question would hardly be self incriminating and would have triggered
    contempt of court?

    Perhaps a more appropriate question would have been a request for an
    address for service.

    That was asked, but the defendant avoided the question and the Judge
    didn't press the point. It will be the subject of a strongly worded
    request at the next hearing and the claimant will not accept any
    avoidance. I wait with baited breath....

    Could you not be present at the hearing? And push for an answer? Given
    the issue is over identity, then ask for NI no and driving licence /
    passport etc?

    How do I stand if I put out a request on my local Facebook Group such
    as this:-
    " Does anyone have information as to the whereabouts of a Mr John
    Doe. For avoidance of confusion, he drives a Porsche Cayenne reg BB5x
    YYY"

    Would this break any laws ?

    I'm not aware of any. You're more likely to get responses by DIY
    private detectives.
    Probably not cost effective to recover the remaining £2.5K Maybe another TPDO in a month's time to empty his bank account again- it's used for
    his trading.

    Most operate on a no address no fee basis, and charge a small fraction
    of £2.5k

    The car may not be his but could still provide a lead.

    Yes, we have an 'approved' email address for service but that is no use
    when it comes to bailiffs. I don't fancy the idea of 'phishing' and
    wouldn't know how anyway.

    If you have a full name bailiffs tend to have access to people us
    mortals don't through databases like credit checks.
