# STATUTORY DEMAND RESPONSE
Date: 6 January 2036
Parties: Amir Shah and Fenwick Components Ltd
## 1. Purpose and parties
I, Amir Shah of 14 Willow Bank, Leeds LS8 4QJ, respond to the statutory demand served by Fenwick Components Ltd on 2 January 2036, claiming £8,400 under invoice FC-1187. I dispute the debt because the commissioned equipment was not delivered in the agreed condition.
## 2. Facts, scope and terms
Fenwick accepted a £3,000 advance on 18 October 2035 and promised delivery by 30 November. The replacement parts were incomplete and caused a documented £9,100 rectification cost, which I rely on as a counterclaim or set-off without admitting liability for any balance.
## 3. Process and responsibilities
I request written confirmation that no winding-up or bankruptcy step will be taken while the dispute is investigated. I reserve the right to apply to court within the applicable period to set aside a defective or genuinely disputed demand, and attach the contract, photographs, invoices and repair report.
## 4. Evidence, records and safeguards
The parties should retain the relevant contract, notice, invoices, records and correspondence, and restrict access to personal or confidential information to those who need it. The stated amounts and dates are fictional worked-example facts and require checking against source records.
## 5. Review, escalation and outcome
If the issue is not resolved, the parties should identify the appropriate next step, which may include an internal process, mediation, court or regulator. Silence or part performance is not treated as acceptance or waiver.
## 6. Reservations and practical protections
This document is a general fictional example, not individual legal advice and not a guarantee of eligibility, liability or outcome. Where necessary, an independent professional should check the facts and current law.
## 7. England and Wales law and completion
This completed fictional sample is made on the date above under the law of England and Wales and subject to mandatory protections. It does not exclude any right, liability or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded.
