Parking fine for a vehicle thats not mine

Posts: 4 Newbie
My now ex partner got a parking fine for over staying in a restaurant car park. I was with him but he was driving his company van. The letter was forwarded to him from his company.
I it now seems stupidly appealed on his behalf as he isn't the best at writing letters. Long story short I now have a CCJ even though I have written to them stating its not my fine and making payments for the debt. As a single mum a CCJ will really make things tough for me.
Do I have any leg to stand on? Admitdly I did ignore it for a while at the time as it was all you read stating that these fines can't be enforcemed 🙈
Thanks for any help or advice you can give.

Erm, yeah. Thats a terrible thing
1) Did you say you were driving? Yes or No
2) Do you have an actual CCJ, meaning a JUDGMENT, or do you have a claim form? Precision is critical here. Use the correct terms written on the letters in front of you, so we know what you are looking at, and we dont have to guess!
3) You made payments?! Did you have aplan in place>? Did you breach said plan?

I have written to them stating its not my fine and making payments for the debt.
What does this mean?
you read stating that these fines can't be enforcemed
It is not a fine and it can be enforced. Have you read the newbies or done any reading about CCJs? You need to take this seriously these companies ruin lives

these are not fines, do not attempt to name the driver even if it wasn't you, never use terms such as he, she, wife, husband, partner, ex partner, friend, neighbour etcFrom the Plain Language Commission:

You have two threads running:
https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6246675/ccj-from-parking-fine-thats-not-mine#latest
On that thread, I told you that you may be able to get the CCJ set aside. To find out how, read the NEWBIES thread section on CCJ set asides.
