Do you have any household Insurance with legal cover.
If so call them as I do not think anyone is getting through to you.
You are just not listening or trolling. one or the other.Be happy...;)0 -

This ^^^^^
You received the court summons on 19th September.
You advised the court that you needed time to file a defence.
You have made no further contact with the court and you have not submitted a defence.
Worse, in telling the court that you agree to make a payment to PE in the sum of one day's parking fees that PE lost, plus court fees, you appear to have admitted liability.
The 28 days for filing your defence expired last week. There is always a certain amount of leeway as the defence can be filed at any time up to judgement being entered, and there may be a few days before the PE machine catches up with applying for judgment (though if they have any sense they will have someone paid to sit clicking a mouse on the day!).
If you are going to file a defence you need to act now, today, before PE beats you to it.
But somehow, I doubt that is going to happen.I'm a retired employment solicitor. Hopefully some of my comments might be useful, but they are only my opinion and not intended as legal advice.0 -

Lets get one thing straight !
We did not park your car on private land without reading the great big signs all over the car park.
You did.
If you want help here, put your teddy back in the pram, accept the situation is of your making and when someone asks you a simple question, just give them a simple answer instead of a mouth full.Be happy...;)0 -

Right the 1st letter was from Northampton cc A COURT SUMMONS and i replied online and via letter of the response pack on 19/9/2013.
is that not a defense pack ??
so i should just pay the fee as i am not helping things with the sound of it .
im frustrated due to PE not giving me the details in the 1st place from dec12th 2012 to my 1st letter on 19th sept 2013 10 months later how can that be my fault ?
only thing i am guilty of is being the legal owner of the car .
i came on here for help.:wall:
so do i need to notify ncc again via letter ,phone,ETC ???0 -

i am the legal owner of the car but it was my daughter who thought it was a free parking car park.
but to receive court action 10 months later with no other letters can not be standard procedure and PE just can't get away with it.0 -
There is a get out if you are out of time for a defence.
If they have not sent anything other than papers you turn up at court and instruct the judge you have to swear a frustrated defence as they have failed to send any paper work other than a claim for and you can not defend what they have not informed you of.
Most judges will ask them to produce copies of paper work sent in disclosure and if they can not they will allow the frustrated defence and strike the claim.Be happy...;)0 -
But if you binned them, don't lie to the judge.

@swfc96 - being brief, you've cooked your goose so I strongly suggest that you pay PE asap and chalk it up to experience. PE employ staff whose entire working life is spent "patrolling" the forums - this thread is extremely unlikely to have escaped their attention. Pay now and you might just escape the formal registration of any judgment i.e. a CCJMy very sincere apologies for those hoping to request off-board assistance but I am now so inundated with requests that in order to do justice to those "already in the system" I am no longer accepting PM's and am unlikely to do so for the foreseeable future (August 2016).

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
