    So my case is to be presented in court approx 4 weeks from today. I have read some posts detailing how we must know the case arguments inside out. I am not a legal expert and wrote most of the defense with help frlm here. Therefore not really sure what I need to learn or where to start?

    Has a complaint been made to the landowner??
    From the Plain Language Commission:

    "The BPA has surely become one of the most socially dangerous organisations in the UK"

    Who is the landowner??
     what was said to them?
    did you remind them that they are jointly liable for the actions of their agents ( the parking company)

    They are a private company. I detailed the outlines of the court case. That said with 4 weeks to the actual hearing. My aim is just to focus on that as I believe contacting the landowner at this stage wont change anything

    The landowner can be joined to the case, so that any costs etc that are awarded should the parking company loose could fall on the landowner.
     The parking company can not be successful in court, unless tey have the permission of the landowner, if the landowner does not support its agents pursuing this matter in court it effectively pulls the rug from under the PPC.
    Two ways this can happen:
     Landowner instructs the parking company not to proceed and to cease pursuing you, you will need evidence that this has happened and then use this in your defence, you can then claim additional/full costs for unreasonable behaviour

    Landowner tells you that they do not want this going to court  they have contacted the parking company but they ( the ppc) are refusing to budge.
     you then MUST contact the PPc with the information and instruct them to withdraw immediately, if the PPC refuses you then add in a costs schedule for unreasonable action /behaviour.

    But the court costs have been paid and thr claiment seems invested in the process. Not sure if I have the capacity ti achieve what you suggest given 4 weeks to the case and I have no idea what I need to prepare for the case.

    All the paperwork is in so get a grip , it is what it is

    The judges know that you are unrepresented and likely a newbie , so let them deal with it and you as witness number one can answer any questions truthfully. You are not expected to be as good as those who helped defend OJS , nor did he understand what his legal team mentioned in court either , he was just a basketball player
