    With the new appeals service on the horizon, there is bound to be sour grapes.

    The IPC will be stripped of a valuable asset and given they allow only 4% of appeals, their will be less court cases, a lot less ?

    The BPA should be delighted as they have been saying for a long time, they have been asking for an independent appeals service.  The BPA got their way, we got our way, wonder what BPA members think of that ???

    A proper appeals service MUST consider mitigation and fairness.
    Of course it should and the TPT tend to operate in this way.

    When everything is in place, there is no reason to have two ATA's because their only place in life will be to collect membership fees and allow PPC's to collect data from the DVLA.

    Figures should be compared to Council Tickets adjudication.  I have appealed two council tickets and won both.

    They have and I cannot understand why AnotherForumite and JB are so defensive of their industry. I think that their loyalty is misplaced.

    I have also made some poor career decisions in my time but I have had the sense to move on.

    If you mean the one that was due to be heard at Leeds this Thursday, they chickened out and discontinued the claim once they found out I was involved, and had helped the Defendant with his WS, and drafted a Skeleton for the hearing.

    They were clearly hoping for an unopposed run against a clueless muppet, as in the Semark-Jullien case, but instead they found that this particular enchilada was too spicy  :o
    Thanks for that.  I thought that JB had gone a bit quiet over the outcome of their test case. :)

    I have wondered what ever happened to all the wheel clamps the SRS group used.

    Are they in a history museum, scapped for their metal content or sold on e-bay as a novelty of the past.

    Of course with the New code of practice and price cap, their will be millions of signs to be changed, not to mention the paper tickets which all ned to be replaced

    Yes...just to be clear to everyone, this was indeed the 'March 2021 appeal' that JB came on here and boasted about.  There was a hearing in March where it was decided that a proper consideration of all the issues was needed, hence a full hearing was listed for this week. 

    Elms Legal were not happy that their client's appeal was being robustly opposed...and despite first protesting that the matter was urgent and would proceed anyway because the Leeds and Bradford Judges are still striking parking cases out in boxwork, when they saw the skelly, Excel decided to just give up.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    So the lady HHJ's ruling still stands.
