Claim against VCS

2»

Comments

  • Before you go off on this adventure, be aware that though there is no written contract there could be an implied one if the site has VCS signs and permits.

    Not all contracts are written or have express terms.

    That raises a few questions,

    How could they prove an implied contract?
    Can the ability to bring claims in their own name be implied?
    Could that trump an employment contract that grants the right to park?

    All something a judge would need to decide on. The more I read of your thread as posts unfold, they seem to reveal something new almost each time, the more I would urge caution before you pull the jumbo’s joystick back and become airborne on this.

    Don’t let anger and frustration fire you into doing anything precipitate.
    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.

    By looking at pics of the site and seeing the PPC signs up. The reasoning is that if occupier did not want PPC to operate, they would have required PPC to remove the signs.
