The judge accepted there was a contract and the signs were clear an I had already paid  for a ticket so was aware. 
The judge said that I was not entitled to present a breach of contract on the IPC / BPA issue but that was between the parties of that contract.  
PPS were entitled to enforce. 
£90 was reasonable. 
Its says everyday on the sign so he felt that justified the two charges for the 2 days. 
He has not let them charge the additional charges of £100
But I have to pay their fees for today £140 so £180 + £140 = £320 in total and I have 30 days to pay or CCJ.. 
 

Sorry to hear that.

Why £140 in costs? Surely it should be £25 claim fee + £25 hearing fee + £50 solicitors cost, so £180 + £100 = £280?

Yep, don't understand that bit!

It was £35 claim fee, £50 solicitors & £55 hearing. 

Castle

As above; as the original claim was for more than £300.

Maybe it's due to 2 PCN,s ? Possibly higher costs than for one ?

Regarding WS filed late, he made a note but felt I had had it since August so was not at any disadvantage.

That at least now makes sense. However I don't see why a Litigant in Person defendant should be unduly punished for a claimant's exaggerated claim. If they'd only claimed what the judge allowed (the PCN values plus solicitor charge) then the amount claimed would have been less than £300, so £25 filing and hearing fees.

Yep, that should have been what you raised - if they'd claimed the right amount their costs would have been lower.

That is true but I am not sure any Defendant could be expected to work that out on the spot and think to mention it.

It is a shame to see some Judges taken in by parking firms and even more important that the PAS232 and single appeals service gets it right.
