Panic Striken Newbie here PCN from UK Car Park Management (CPM)

Thank you to the contributors that help the small person...
Newbie is in a similar situation with UKCPM as dooneydd, and trying to help father, who has been issued with a Formal Demand, as registered keeper of the vehicle that received a PCN.
However,
1) I own an allocated parking space (separately purchased on a long lease)
and
2) Also have a right to park in a communal unallocated parking space (granted in the apartment lease)
and would be grateful for any advice in finding out whether as the leaseholder of the parking space I can ignore any tickets I get from UKCPM for 1), as I am the 'leasehold owner of the land' and for 2), as I have a right to park granted in my apartment lease. The ticket was issued by UKCPM in the unallocated parking space for 'Not displaying a Valid Permit' and the signage is the same as the picture provided by dooneydd.0 -

You do need to start a new thread of your own, as we work on the basis of 'one case, one thread' so advice doesn't become confused and/or we have a complete free for all with any number of random cases being tagged on.
But first of all you do need to read thoroughly the NEWBIES FAQS sticky at the top of the forum index (one page back from here) which will give all of the initial information you need. It was written by Coupon-mad, one of the country's most knowledgeable people in dealing with private parking tickets. You won't find anything more comprehensive than this anywhere online.
The sticky is detailed and you might need a couple of 'passes' to digest it, so bite sized chunks with a cup of tea over a couple days might be the best approach. You do need to make the effort to do some research via the sticky before asking for further help from regulars - we are so busy most days it's impossible to type and constantly repeat basic information - hence the sticky with all that stuff covered. But do come back after reading it if anything isn't clear to you.
BUT - via a new thread of your own please.
HTHPlease note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.
