I made a purchase from a person and when asked to pay was asked to make bnk cheque out to :
S.D.& M.E. SMITH, I did that . They later issued a receipt headed S.D. & M.E. SMITH with an ABN number and name of property " Warrin" Coonamble NSW.
Upon checking the ABN , the number does not match the S.D.&M.E SMITH name , it is instead is registered as M.E. & S.D Smith family partnership entity.
The original cheque I paid to S.D.& M.E. SMITH is in fact a PTY LTD under a different ABN to that they issued on receipt.
I need to clarify who is the respondent as I have a brought a case to Tribunal and the member has picked up the issue of whether I have brought proceedings against the right respondent.
At the moment I have 2 names as respondent, one being one person in that PTY LTD entity , the other their daughter whom I dealt in purchase as she was acting as their agent and took monies from me , showed me the product , and delivered the product to me, so I had all dealings with her.
So, should I:
1. Seek to amend the respondent to take out the daughter as she was not in the name of the payment ?
2. Seek to change the respondent to S.D & M.E SMITH PTY LTD as that is the initials of the cheque I was asked to pay them with and did that ?
3. leave as is , both mother and daughter, and add the S.D. & M.E. SMITH PTY LTD to the respondents?
Appreciate advice as am self representing,
