    Stop spatting.

    It detracts from bargepole's Thread:

    BEAVIS FUND APPEAL LAUNCHED, copying what Barry Beavis has written and needs:

    Barry Beavis has now launched an appeal for funds to enable him to get his Supreme Court appeal under way. This is not for legal costs, but for the court fees.

    The fee for lodging a Notice of Appeal at the Supreme Court is £1,600. The fee for lodging the Appellant's Bundle is a snip at only £4,500.


    He has 42 days in which to lodge a Notice of Appeal.


    His message below:

    Guys

    I want to appeal. If you're up for it?

    I recognise this will take money. I have begun asking for contributions and commenced a campaign.

    See here: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/supreme-court-appeal-to-beat-the-parking-bullies/x/10605292


    If you are able to circulate this, I should be grateful.

    Thank you
    Regards

    Barry Beavis

    Thankyou bargepole. I will contribute, not least because of para.s 8, 9, 25 and 26, touched on in 28 and 29, on the work and ethics of pension funds and the means by which these ends can be accomplished.
    Pension Funds should not be investing in or owning land which does not serve fundholders' interests in accrual.

    So - '
    However, the important features of the contract for present purposes are that ParkingEye agreed to pay the Pension Fund a fixed amount each week during the term of the agreement and was entitled to retain any parking charges that it might collect.'
    and
    'There is no economic transaction between the car park operator and the driver who uses the car park, if he or she stays no longer than two hours; there is no more than (for that time) a gratuitous licence to use the land.'

    It troubles me that a precedent is being determined in obeisance to an issue which is no part of Mr Beavis's case: 'If we do the other thing, a big pension fund might lose money.'

    I am grateful that so many voluntary hours given by msers helped me see 2 parkinglie scam invoices off last year and an October APCOA one, for which correct P&D ticket was correctly displayed.
    I did not need to post on Forum about it: it was cancelled, with apology[Southwark Council], at 1st letter stage.

    Parking Prankster also links to the Appeal site.

    I will donate.
    I think everyone who has been helped by any of the forums against PE ought to put a little bit in.
    Surely this will hit PE 's income at least until it's heard. We all want that?

    I've beaten Parking Eye three times, largely thanks to MSE. Call that £300 saved.

    So I'm stumping up a tenner. That doesn't make me generous, it actually makes me a tight b******.

    I'm sure there are enough tight b******s out there to raise the required amount!

    agreed, although I have managed to use the forum advice here to beat all tickets I have personally helped with so far, no matter who the PPC was

    I know they have fees for these fund raising campaigns, so I assume he has factored those in (like the Alan Barnes campaign elsewhere)

    put my ten "pennorth" in anyway, feels good to be able to help in some small way, even if its "just money" (like I did with Alan Barnes)

    The lawyer just lacked basic homework, basic knowledge of how they run the set up.
    To be honest, I do not think it would have made any difference,
    The Judges decided £100 is not a lot of money so its not worth upholding it.
    Which to them its not.
    I would suugest some witnesses next time pointing out what having to cough up £100 or worse still court charges and what they actually did to get them, like going back twice in one day might help.
    How they had to go without food, petrol to get to work, cancel the holiday that kind of thing.
    I do Contracts, all day every day.
