The Parking Prankster has reported yesterday that a PE case has recently been stayed at the request of the defendant until the outcome of the SC appeal in the Beavis case is known

Something all PE POPLA's now being submitted should point out?

Indeed let us see how they like them apples.

I think that all the court cases and POPLA appeals should be stayed until the Supreme Court has had a further look at this case.
From MY reading of the judgement there are two things that stand out as NOT being very well reasoned,
1) That local authority penalty charges were in a similar quantum to PE charges. LA charges and discounts giving a much lower cost to the erring motorist.
2) Paragraph 25 states that the BA pension fund contracted PE to manage the car park where in fact the essence of the contract the reverse was true where PE paid them and the amount depended on the commercial risk PE wished to take. Yes it may be commercially justified but it is a penalty when it overcomes true cost.
