Parking Eye Make Hash Of Court Case

Options
This from Parking Prankster:-

http://parking-prankster.blogspot.co.uk/2013/11/parkingeye-drop-case-against-motorist.html

Once again their policy of "rent a lawyer on the day" backfired as the poor chap seemed out of his depth, and had no idea what was happening. Just like that other lawyer who thought he was representing Private Eye.

I like this:-

ParkingEye had sent a letter apologising that large amounts of mail they thought were sent out to whole heaps of people were in fact never posted, and that they now had the particulars.

and this:-

The Prankster explained this was extremely relevant because the contract ParkingEye provided at the last minute was dated after the parking event, and therefore not in force at the time. The lawyer turned slightly green.

and this:-

The judge reconvened and asked why the contract was dated after the parking event, while the landowner witness statement said an agreement was in place. The lawyer could not turn any greener. He explained that the witness statement was referring to a different agreement, and not the contract. The judge asked where this agreement was. The lawyer explained he did not have it with him. The judge asked why not. Apparently, the lawyer could turn a little greener. He said he did not know.

and finally this, which is very relevant in the light of the news of dubious witness statements:-

The manager of McDonalds, who had signed the witness statement, received Ms B's letter. Although he had been asked to sign the witness statement by ParkingEye, apparently they had not bothered to tell him that the reason she overstayed was that she was broken down. He immediately instructed ParkingEye to cancel the parking ticket and drop the court case.
What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?
