The mediation call is not part of the judicial process. No judge
involved. It is without prejudice so has no bearing on anything
going forwards. The mediator is no legally trained and should
they start to try and advise you on what they think the outcome
may be, simply tell them to stop and say that the claimant has a
copy of the defence and you offer £0. It will be over in
minutes. Complete waste of time.

The mediator told me that the claimant believes my “defence is
not acceptable” and they will proceed with a court hearing if a
settlement is not reached

And….?
Of course they don’t believe your defence!
All sounds normal to me.
Apologies if you meant otherwise.

…and I told them that I do not wish to discuss a settlement, the
claimant has a copy of my defence and I offer nothing, if they
wish to go to court then let’s go

"...and I believe that the claimant has zero chance of being
successful! Let a judge decide."

The second page of that should give a deadline by which witness
statements etc. need to be filed, does it? If so, when is that
deadline? It is usually 14 days prior to the hearing, and more
importantly after the deadline for paying the trial fee, but
sometimes we see some anomalies.

So this is going to end up being discontinued just before the
9th January 2026. Come back and show us the N279 Notice of
Discontinuance when you receive it.
