District Court Rules 2014, Part 5
A lender can recover debts under $350,000 through the District Court by filing a statement of claim with the court. This gives details of the debt the lender says you owe, including the amount of the debt and how it came about. The lender also gives you, the debtor, a copy of the statement of claim (this is called “serving” it on you).
Along with their statement of claim, the lender must include a list of:
all the documents they’ve referred to in the statement of claim, and
any other documents they’ve used when preparing their statement of claim and that they intend to rely on at the court trial.
You can then ask the lender for copies of any of the documents in the list, and the lender has to give you them within five working days.
