County court business centre

torzie_lee

Hi all, first of all i would like to say everyone who helps here are amazing and gives me the urge to fight on. I have read the newbies post about County court claim, and i have read the letters that have been sent but i do not know how to adapt and i do not just want to copy and paste. I do not know the law and do not know what cases to quote etc. What i do know is the signs are the size of a postage stamp, there are a few down the middle but none on left hand side where i was park as there is no where to hang them, so if you miss the one on the way in, you wont see another one. I have had a few letters from DCA prior to the but i cant recall a letter before court letter. I have had more than 1 ticket and i do know that i have replied to a few but not sure if i replied to this one The time limit is 3 hours and is run by UKCPS. The claim letter states what time i got the ticket but does not say what time i was there from. I don't know where to start can anyone help? The ticket is from Jan 2018.

What does the claim say in the middle box on the left under the term particulars?

torzie_lee

A claim for an outstanding parking charge has been issued against the defendant of the vehicle, reg *******, parked on k**** L***** (The land). The land is managed by the claimant UKCPS Ltd, and signage is present on the land stipulating conditions of parking, that £100 charge will be due for any breach of those conditions , including additional costs if recovery steps are taken. In parking on the land, the driver of the vehicle contractually agreed to be bound by these conditions. The driver of the vehicle parked on **/01/2018 at 14:36, was in breach of one or more conditions. The registered keeper who may have been the driver or alternativly has chosen not to name the driver , is responsible for the charge under shedule 4 of the protection of freedoms act 2012. The parking charge remains unpaid: an additional charge of £60.00 for administration costs (admin, postage, and letters) has been incurred whereby this becomes a commercially justifiable figure.

You are mistaken.

With a Claim Issue Date of 1st October, you have until 20th October to do the Acknowledgement of Service, but there is nothing to be gained by delaying it. To do the AoS, follow the guidance offered in a Dropbox link from post #2 of the NEWBIES FAQ sticky thread.

Having done the AoS, you then have until 4pm on Monday 5th November 2018 to file your Defence.

Loads of time to produce a perfect Defence, but don't leave it to the very last minute.


When you are happy with the content, your Defence should be filed via email as described here:

1) Print your Defence.
2) Sign it and date it.
3) Scan the signed document back in and save it as a pdf.
4) Send that pdf as an email attachment to CCBCAQ@Justice.gov.uk
5) Just put the claim number and the word Defence in the email title, and in the body of the email something like 'Please find my Defence attached'.
6) Log into MCOL after a few days to see if the Claim is marked "defended". If not chase the CCBC until it is.
7) Wait for your Directions Questionnaire and then re-read post #2 of the NEWBIES thread to find out exactly what to do with it.

...to do the (easy) acknowledgement of service (AOS), to buy more time to defend.

Please read the 2nd post of the NEWBIES thread for how to do what's needed, which KeithP's post explains.

to use the form, NO, you are NOT sending off A DMANED FORM!

You MUST complete it ONLINE!

OK calm down I've got 2 kids, work full time i am reading bits at a time when i can. Its an awful lot to take in and i'm struggling.

Hence why it is set out ot you , in post 2, in the right order. So you only need to read the bit around AoS.
