County court claim

sparkyc

Hi,
Read through all the links and FAQs.
I have been sent a County Courts Business centre claim, for parking in a private car park. I ignored all tickets and debt agency letters as was told to.
I have acknowledged it and asked for extension,.
What now, can anyone help please
Thanks

You should not have ignored it. Whoever told you to do that is an idiot of the highest order.

That's me then. Ignoring is perfectly legitimate response and one that is being adopted with certain PPCs. It is not universal but it can be the way forward.

I can recommend ignoring for those that are smart enough not to listen to people who say "don't ignore"

Hi, Read the thread about how to defend etc.


The problem I have is because I threw all the tickets and requests etc away, I have no idea what evidence they have. Also the car park I got the ticket in is no longer there, it has been developed on. It was a private car park, so I wasn't even able to buy a ticket, it just said 'Private parking' if I can recall.
Thanks

You need to send in a defence. There are plenty about if you search for the parking company.

As regards the paperwork, write to the parking company and ask for it (get proof of posting)

You have 33 days from the date of the claim to get the defence in.

Same as loads of people, but you will find example defences that cover the bases. show us the draft you put together based on other ones here.
