can someone help me out here (with my legal ignorance):
if JD parking don't go ahead with an appeal, and don't pay the RK as directed by the court within 28 days: what options are open to the RK in respect of loss recovery?0 -
He can ultimately send the bailiffs in but I'd bet a pound to a pinch that there will be nothing of value to distrain upon and the clamper will pheonix the following week.torontoboy45 wrote: »can someone help me out here (with my legal ignorance):

For those seeking more detailed advice and guidance regarding small claims cases arising from private parking issues I recommend that you visit the Private Parking forum on PePiPoo.com0 -

That's why, at least in some cases, there is no alternative to the use of angle-grinders as you won't get your money back once you've paid (but do take extreme care)

They know the score before they start there will be nothing in his name! And he will only be on 5 bob a week!
It would be nice if a bailiff could seize a few clamps! However that could come under tools of your trade!!:o0 -

I don't know if its an urban myth but I heard years ago there was a guy in the West Midlands they called the "wheel clamp grinder man" He would travel around just using a whizzer and chop them off! I believe he didn't charge just chopped them off!
I think if it is true a clamper must have upset him at some time!:T
Ahh found him!!http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/west_midlands/3485625.stm0
