    I will reply to landowner that his knowledge is wrong on blue badge but do I have any chance in the court? Or should I just call and pay them?

    There is nothing in our lease agreement regarding car park/car parking

    The notice board displaying notice by cpm is attached

    Reading that only the driver can be held liable. It makes no mention that liability can be transferred.

    From my understanding, the newborn child ( and its parents/carer) probably has some protection under the Equality act

    Only if they were being breastfed and it doesn't allow parking in a disabled bay. You should categorically NEVER have left the car in a disabled bay - never do that again unless you or a passenger has a disability (= a relevant long term medical condition affecting day to day activity).

    However, every word of this is wrong, it is utter drivel:
    · The Equality Act 2010 does not enter into the equation, the enforcement officer that issued the badge has been requested to do so on behalf of the Resident Management Company and Freeholder so is perfectly entitled to issue the ticket as requested by all parties.
    · It is not allowed to park in a disabled bay anywhere in the UK without displaying a current permit issued by correct authorities.
    · It has never been permitted to park in a disabled bay without the relevant permit giving permission to do so, this is the law throughout the land.
    · As per the terms of the transfer they are perfectly entitled to issue ticket as the Resident Management Company, the Freeholder and the Management Company have requested they do this.

    IPlease feel free to contact your MP regarding this situation but please remember this is not a Private Company going round issuing tickets, this is a Parking Enforcement Company that have been instructed to act in this manner by the freeholder , the Directors and the Management Company to issue tickets to cars in disabled bays without valid permit.

    But as you were in a disabled bay you can hardly take the moral high ground just because that person's reply is stupid and clueless in every way. You are not right to try to say this either (''not legally allowed'' = yes they are...) so both of you are in the wrong:
    I mentioned that although I wasn’t disabled but UKCPM is also not legally allowed to charge someone for not displaying a valid blue badge according to equality act 2010 on a private.
    Two wrongs don't make a right so no paying them.

    Like everyone else, fight it in a court claim when Gladstones serve one.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    I was looking for some reasons which I could use but not really sure what can I say when I was wrong in parking in a disables bay. May be I should have parked outside the bays in such case.
