What is the maximum amount payable if a court case is lost?
Hello everyone. When PE goes to court claiming £165 (comprising £100 charge, £50 solicitors, £15 extras), if you lost at the hearing, is this the amount you will be asked to pay in total or could this figure increase? Does anyone know for sure? Thanks.

Why is receiving advice from forums not helpful in court hearings?
Reading through these threads, I get the feeling that if your identity is revealed or becomes apparent, then your case against the PPC becomes weaker. Why? It doesn't change the original facts. Secondly, in a few court hearings (and also when PPC responds to a defence), the PPC have used the fact that the defendants have…

UKPS (NW) PCN still not going away!
Hello Last month I wrote about my ongoing issues with UKPS, DRP and Zenith after a parking charge issued in November 2012 when a car was parked in a car park when it said it was closed.

I let CEL take me to court.... I don't deal well with bullying. I guess you might call me a moral Martyr. They withdrew at the steps of the court...

Instead of 'appeal to PPC, then appeal to POPLA [on GPEOL]' maybe we can double the cost of a PPC taking action from £27 to a minimum of £52?? So.... Ignore all PPC stuff UNTIL they issue court papers. [Costs…
