CCJ for parking in residential permit

Hi All,

My husband has been issued charge certificate for parking in the residential permit area. He has a valid residential permit.

He actually changed his car in april and informed the local authority. He received an email confirming the records have been updated for the new car.

In may he was issued PCN for the new car for which he appealed and it was cancelled. The mail stated that the records have been updated and nothing needs to be done.

In june he again received a PCN for the same and he emailed them on the same day. He didn't get any reply.

In july we moved out of London and we just found out that he has been issued a charge certificate of £195 and the dead line was 30th September. If the fine is not paid, the case will be taken to CCJ. Just to save his credit profile he paid the fine as there was no option of appeal offered. We tried to ring NSL and walthamforest but nothing seems to work.

What options do we have now? Any advice would be of great help.

Thanks,
Neha

    As we tend to major on private parking tickets here, PePiPoo will be your best bet for council tickets. Register there (but please note that a hotmail address won't work) and post a new thread; here's your link:

    Have a read through some of the other threads there before you post your own to get the hang of what information they need from you in your opening post - but as a minimum you will need to post redacted photos/scans of all correspondence you've received from the council (both sides, if appropriate) as they need to see all the small print.

    PePiPoo has an excellent success record in dealing with council tickets.
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.
