Defence to CEL

Jamesand

Hi,

In my earlier thread I asked about my defence letter to the court that I had received for a PCN at my works carpark. I did the acknowledgement online, so i believe i am up to the stage of submitting my defence. When i am using MCOL, it is telling me that my defence is above the line limit. Do i leave the defence open ended and then take the rest with me when i get a court date? Or should i edit it so that it fits into the 122 line limit?

Thanks

nope, none of the above


if your defence is finished , you save it , print it , sign and date it , scan back to pc and save as a pdf


then you email it as an attachment to the CCBCAQ justice email address and add the mcol ref and name in the title and again in the email body plus name and address and any other relevant info etc

Ok, thanks, thats brilliant. Am i best off attaching copies of my wage slip to this too, to prove that i work at the superstore? Thanks

no , because the evidence stage comes much later and you are emailing a government office, not a court


the only thing going to Northampton is the actual DEFENCE, nothing else


you dont appear to have read the posts by BARGEPOLE or LOC123 in post #2 of the newbies faq sticky thread if you are asking about what comes when and why, please read them

This is an entirely unregulated industry which is scamming the public with inflated claims for minor breaches of contracts for alleged parking offences, aided and abetted by a handful of low-rent solicitors.

Parking Eye, CPM, Smart, and another company have already been named and shamed, as has Gladstones Solicitors, and BW Legal, (these two law firms take hundreds of these cases to court each year). They lose most of them, and have been reported to the regulatory authority by an M.P. for unprofessional conduct

Hospital car parks and residential complex tickets have been especially mentioned.

The problem has become so rampant that MPs have agreed to enact a Bill to regulate these scammers. Watch the video of the Second Reading in the HofC recently.

and complain in the most robust terms to your MP. With a fair wind they will be out of business by Christmas.

Jamesand, please stop creating new threads.

We now have three threads covering this one incident and you may well find that people simple won't search looking for background information.

This in turn will mean you could be given wrong advice.
