  • Thanks Johnersh.

    When do I have to submit this to the court? And to the claimant I presume also?

    With regards to the layout, I just do the statement of truth stuff, sign and date and number the pages like with the initial witness statement?

    A skelly is optional, so no "have to".
    However normally this is submitted 3 days beforehand, ALONGISDE your costs schedule. Always to both other parties - court and C

    As this is merely an argument I dont believe it needs a statement of truth. Numbered para ALWAYS helps you.
  • Nosferatu many thanks. Is there a template for the costs summary?

    Given court date is Friday and I guess I'll have to get the stuff in the post / hand deliver to the court, tomorrow. Do I just title it 'skeleten arguement'?

    Is there a template for the costs summary?
    Yes there is, and as you might've guessed it's in post #2 of the NEWBIES FAQ sticky thread - towards the bottom of that post.
  • KeithP...i should know better thsn to go asking before checking the newbies thread lol
  • Skelly and costs submitted. What do I need to do before the big day on Friday now?
  • URGENT!

    in the court waiting room now. Claimant's solicitor just showed me a copy of the original PCN which claimant has failed to include in witness bundle. They've only put in the one to the hire company and then the trans of liability docs.

    He wants to admit it. Will I get to refuse and could this be enough to request the claim is struck out?

    Thanks

    DO NOT accept it from them now
    Object to it being included.
    No it is not enough to get it struck out. WHen you say original PCN, was this a windscreen PCN?
  • Well....I won! Can't quite believe it! Off for a swift beverage in celebration.

    An interesting observation...as a lay person it was obvious to me how inept Gladstone's really are. The judge didn't have the claimant's trial bundle...this was because they'd emailed it to the court not sent a written copy. The judge was not a happy man about this and I sat quietly whilst he engaged in a few stern words with the claimant's representative. He'd also noted, as did i, on receipt, that pages 3&4 of the claimant's witness statement were scanned badly and bits cut off...again he was not impressed.

    Anyway, pub calls. :-)

    To every single poster on my thread and other contributers to the parking fines forum board I thank you from the bottom of my heart, and my wallet...which save being a few hundred pounds lighter will be inflated by £104.90 costs awarded to me :-D
