    Pity the judge did not halt use of the anpr system until proven to be working correctly, then if it was proven and other cases of double dipping come up then the book could be thrown at them.

    That would be going beyond the jurisdiction of a District Judge in a County Court.

    Someone would need to apply for a Prohibitory Injunction, which would be heard by a HHJ at High Court level, and would probably require legally qualified representation, which wouldn't be cheap.

    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.
  • Pity, considering how many double dippers come up it would stop them dead in their tracks. Basically the system/company is not fit for purpose as they know its faults and prefer to ignore them. Lots of people just cough up.
    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.

    Maybe we should ask Gina Miller...she likes the High Court and seems not short of a penny or two.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
