    You had your chance to tell the judge why you wanted a F2F; why didn't' you?  I can understand  that you get tied in knots on the phone but the judge would have been able to hear that and you might have been able to get the sympathy vote!  You could try an e-mail to the judge and ask for a F2F and explain why but he sounds as if he wants to clear the backlog.  To help with a telephone hearing, make yourself a list of bullet points that you want to get across and (if the judge allows you) work your way through them.

    Telephone hearings are OK.  The only thing you don't want is to have it heard on the papers.

    AND - get ANGRY and GET EVEN about this scam!   Please now make a real difference:

    A TASK FOR SEPTEMBER:

    The Government is (this month only) consulting about a new statutory code of practice (CoP) and framework to rein in the rogue parking firms.  Read and comment on the draft CoP proposal and the enforcement framework consultation, and get everyone you know to do the same.

    You will need to register to comment on the CoP and enter an occupation even if you are retired or a homemaker, but otherwise it is easy to navigate, and comment upon each section/subsection individually. You can save comments to edit later and or submit comments once you are happy with them.

    https://standardsdevelopment.bsigroup.com/projects/2020-00193#/section

    You do not need to register to comment on the enforcement framework which can be found here. It has a link on page 5 to make comments.

    https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/913272/Code_Enforcement_Framework_consultation.pdf


    HOW TO DO THE SUBMISSIONS:


    Responses into the PAS 232 and MHCLG framework documents are not completely straightforward:

    On the MHCLG response, you have to answer the questions on a 1-5 scale from strongly agree to strongly disagree, and then put some commentary. No way to upload documents or alternatives.

     

    On the PAS 232, you have to click on each clause and sub-clause to put your comments, and a suggested rewording of their draft.  You can see comments which other people have written! 

     

    But, when you click ‘submit’, a message pops up to say your comments have been received, but that only applies to the particular clause you have just addressed.

     

    You have to click ‘submit’ separately for each individual clause response.

     

    Some people will be caught out by this but can revisit it and add further responses up to 12 October.

     

     


    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Two weeks ago you were discussing your Witness Statement.

    You surely know that you will need a Witness Statement at some time or other.

    Why have you not yet written one?

    'In by this Friday' means by 4pm on Friday. Sending it Friday evening is not good enough.
  • my key worker has not been over to help he had to cancel our september appointment and i have made a hash of it but i will try adgain and get it together 
    thanks

    There is help available on the forum in the shape of example witness statements.  Have a look at the links in the NEWBIE sticky.  Also you could search the forum for witness statements for situations similar to yours.
