Rachel Might Be In Trouble (Again)

Parking Prankster's latest blog makes interesting reading:-

http://parking-prankster.blogspot.co.uk/2015/01/parkingeye-called-to-task-in-stockport.html

Rachel Ledson, head of Legal at ParkingEye, and Patrick Le Bas, Head of Advocacy at LPC Law have both been warned that if they quote the Beavis case then they should bring to the courts attention that the case is being appealed.

It may therefore be time to report these two people to the Solicitor's Regulatory Authority for them to determine if any wrong doing has occurred.

Parking Eye's website also fails to mention the appeal :-

The result was a resounding success for ParkingEye, with Judgment being given for ParkingEye on every point of defence pleaded. This included ParkingEye’s ability to bring the claim, the legally enforceable nature of the contract created between ParkingEye and the motorist and that the Parking Charge amount was fair and reasonable. This Judgment has been circulated to a number of County Courts, and provides District Judges with the most persuasive Judgement on claims of this nature currently available. However it should be noted that HHJ Moloney QC was influenced in his Judgment by the case of ParkingEye Ltd v Somerfield Stores and a number of other High Court and Court of Appeal cases.

Naughty!, naughty!

    Funny that PE should mention the Somerfield case. This is what the judge had to say about the parking company in that particular case:-

    "The Judge not only found that the third letter contained falsehoods but that those falsehoods were deliberately made by the relevant ParkingEye executive, albeit without dishonesty. Hence the Judge found ParkingEye was guilty of the tort of deceit on those occasions when the third letter was sent on its behalf. ParkingEye does not challenge this decision."

    The bit in that quote from the Somerfield Judge that I find incredible is:

    "falsehoods were deliberately made ........ albeit without dishonesty"

    No much wonder I often have difficulty understanding some of these 'legalese' speakers.
  • If not dishonest then stupid; really, really stupid?
