IMPORTANT INFORMATION IF YOU ARE GOING TO COURT
This information with thanks to henrik777 and Castle
As from the 6th April 2020 there is a change in witness statements for telling the truth. We already know that witness statements from legals representing parking companies are fabrications. Especially the fake £60 add-on. This now means claims for the unlawful £60 could mean the legals will be in contempt of court. It also means that spurious claims on behalf of their client without knowing if the claim is valid will be contempt.
Therefore, you scrutinise their witness statement and alert the court if you believe it is falseAmendments to the Civil Procedure Rules bring mandatory changes to statements of truth

Wouldn't it be good to have one of them royally stitched up with a nasty outcome delivered by a switched on Judge. I suspect the pursuit model of both Gs and BWL will be far less cavalier!
i wonder how much the parking skimdustry, or even 'Jack Chapman', have forced this change.Karma can be a powerful phenomenon.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.
