Me too, it is usually the other way round.You never know how far you can go until you go too far.2

You are right and it might be an idea to take piccies of the existing signs to show that there were no additional signs stuck to them warning of the impending change.redbluetile said:Le_Kirk - you are right, can't take photos of something that never existed and if they reference the change, the onus will be on them to prove signs were put up (which they never were)....1 -
The person read on one of the other threads that the parking company, amount, dates and reference to a driver / registered keeper should not be made on these threads as the parking companies access them and search for their names hence the person has been reluctant to name the company, amounts, dates and refers to themselves as "the person" rather than driver or registered keeper. You are right that it is one of the two companies you are speculating about.....Unnecessary over-cautiousness - it's a parking ticket, not a murder.Well, one of the two is uber-litigious, the other one not anywhere close.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

OK, let me rephrase that then. They are there with the consent of the landowner. Therefore the landowner can direct that the ticket be cancelled, can they not? Should the OP not be pushing that angle a little harder?fisherjim said:All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.1 -
