The date for the hearing of this case at the Court of Appeal is now in the public domain, and has been set for Monday 23rd/Tuesday 24th February 2015. It is extremely unlikely that Judgment will be given at the conclusion of the hearing, but will be handed down a few days later.


Anyone who has a PE court case before that date, should, if the Judge is minded to follow the original ruling, try to get their case stayed until the result of the appeal is known.

I have been providing assistance, including Lay Representation at Court hearings (current score: won 57, lost 14), to defendants in parking cases for over 5 years. I have an LLB (Hons) degree, and have a Graduate Diploma in Civil Litigation from CILEx. However, any advice given on these forums by me is NOT formal legal advice, and I accept no liability for its accuracy.

    Yes there is a large public gallery.

    Nice... Might go down, bit pricey for parking though! I accidentally pulled into a £20 per hour car park once

    Any Parking Eye car parks near? :D:D:D

    Will you be warning the appeal judges not to believe any dodgy phone calls they get from people pretending to be parkingeye employees?

    I wouldn't even think of driving or parking in that area, inside the congestion zone, about a billion pounds a minute to park, and they'll clamp you for going a nanosecond over on the meter.


    Nearest tube stations Charing Cross, Chancery Lane or Temple.

    If you do want to take the car this is about the cheapest parking you'll get nearby £2/hour.
    About 15 mins walk, it's a huge underground car park owned by The City of London never any problems finding a space.

  • Last time I was in a Court with Parking Eye, the Judge very kindly asked them to pay my parking costs.

    The lawyer disputed the £3 I was claiming...."Well I don't know he's spent £3."

    The Judge, quite rightly pointed out, that he hoped that the ticket proving payment was where it should have been, on display behind the windscreen.

    I think that Waterloo Station is not too expensive.

    Coming in from the west, park at Hatton Cross and tube in.

    Coming in from the north, park at Brent Cross and tube in.

    Coming on from the south or east, catch a train.

    Case tracker says 23rd or 24th for 5 hrs, but CoA cause list says not sitting on 23rd, so presume we are looking at Tues 24th then?
