County Court Claim Regarding Parking Tickets

Yes i did notice thankyou. i've also quoted that firstline on here a couple of times0

and as mentioned, my defence was appalling. I am unfamiliar with court proceedings and its paperwork which lead me to produce a defence containing a few short bullet points. Had i of known that was my only chance to defend myself i would have made a proper defence. However i was under the assumption that the court hearing would be my chance to defend myself0

It's your chance to present your defence, yes
That's why they don't want a ws, the court is essentially going to just dismiss your dlaim. Would have been good to have filed an amended defence0 -
Hindsight is a wonderful thing if i could go back and change it. So is there any point in me doing this WS? I will be emailing the court asking for a chance to produce the WS and just stress that my defence was inadequate due to my lack of court experience0

Beavis was for a 50 minute overstay in a free shopping centre car park where there was no facility to purchase extra time. The PPC rented the car park from the landowner for £1,000 a week. I am struggling to see how it is relevant.
Why have you not mentioned the lease in your defence, perhaps CM can enlighten me?
are there any other cases you can recommend for me to reference instead of Beavis? i will be uploading a WS this evening ready to submit to the court tomorrow0 -
They don't want a ws, and the court hasn't allowed enough time to do anything other than introduce the case and the rule in the c favour.
You could send to the court but they won't read it, I don't think.
Have you followed the exact advice Jonnersh gave you waaaay before?0 -

As you are being advised, afraid you just need to turn up with your trousers over your arm ready for your punishment!0 -
Well i called the court and spoke to a lady on admin who said i should email stating i am unhappy i have not been given a chance to produce a WS and request an opportunity to do so. Is this not worth doing?0

Did you follow her advice??0

Did you follow her advice??
i have emailed the address she gave, yes. however it is the weekend so i won't get a reply until tomorrow earliest. I basically noted my inexperience with court matters and asked for an opportunity at a second defence and WS to allow me to fairly fight the claims against me0
