    Defence looks good but did CST's particulars specify the breach, or not?
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    But did you file the Acknowledgment of Service before 30th January?

    Thanks for all your help 
  • Defence looks good but did CST's particulars specify the breach, or not?
    Yes 'for breach of the terms on the sign (the contract). Reason : unauthorised parking'
  • Hi all, I am now awaiting a court date. Yesterday I recieved a letter offering a reduced settlement figure, and today another letter requesting if I can send them a copy of my lease and also a copy of my disability badge as a number of the parking fines were issued in a disability bay - shall I send these? My mother is disabled and i often pick her up to take her to mine but cant remember if each ticket corresponds to when she visited. Just to note the disability bay is ever so faintly marked with symbol painted on the floor , there are no disability residents residing in the block of flats.  I have only just realised that my original thread title states cst however the company taking action are actually dcb legal!

    Please edit your thread title first as this will confuse us no end later on!

    How many PCNs are in the claim?

  • There are multiple, my partners claim is for 15 PCNs which they have issued proceedings for , we have sent the defence.

    I also have 33 tickets which I have recieved the letter before claim for but still am awaiting the actual claim to come through, our defence will be identical.

    Do we reply to dcb with the lease and proof of disability badge? Or would you recommend waiting for the courts instructions?

    With that amount of money RESPOND NOW, of course, why would you wait around with that 4 figure threat at stake?

    This will go to a Judge ultimately (it won't be discontinued without a hearing) so you want to look like the most reasonable person in reasonableland!

    There is no template.

    Read only RECENT WS from this Summer.  Base yours on those.

    There is info in the NEWBIES thread, including an a-f list of suggested Exhibits.
