The video was mentioned in her WS that it’s ready to be played at court but judge didn’t want to know. 

He was right. You can't do that I'm afraid. Everything has to be supplied to the court and Gladstones in advance, so this time you'll need two USB sticks.

And re achievements: nothing has been achieved yet because the moneymen blocked the new Code and we now need a new (third) Public Consultation because the PPCs can't hack it that the public and MPs are onto their little game of greed.

They don't want their gravy train stopped.  You snd your relatives, by making separate submissions from the heart, can help us to stop that gravy train this time.

Please promise us that you and the acquaintance will add two more submissions to the public consultation and don't miss it when it opens.

You and the friend will not want to miss out.

The race to court culture MUST end. You will want the Government to hear you, I'm sure!  Join us in this final Consultation.

I will do Thank you. X

Hi everyone 

I hope you’re all well. 

Quick question:

As you’re aware I’m dealing with multiple claims, I’ve filed my defence for another claim months ago back in November-same location around same date, on MCOL the last entry was my defence. I’ve received the acknowledgment of defence letter from the court by post soon after, then DQ from Gladies.  But nothing after that, No DQ was sent by the court, no letters nothing. Is this normal? 

Thanks xx

Not a normal occurrence reported on the forum. Best check with the CCBC by phone tomorrow. Expect a long wait to get through. 

I'm assuming you've already checked your claim history on MCOL?

How many claims are/were there and who is the Defendant in each one, and which have been won or lost so far?

I know your mum lost her case.  Please set out how many claims she has and how many you have and are they all about the same location?

NEVER refer to your mum's lost case in any submussions re the othee claims but who is the defendant each time and where are they all at?

Please set it out for us:

claim 1.  Defendant: mum. Lost at hearing.

claim 2. Defendant: ?  Stage?

claim 3.  etc etc

All about the same location?

Hi I’m sorry I couldn’t get back to you sooner. I’m dealing with some health issues in the family. 

I’ve checked the history on MCOL and the last entry was my defence. 

I’ve tried calling CCBC but can’t get through so I’ve written the following email to send. 

Could you kindly check and see if that’s ok to send? Thank you for your help 

Claim No: XXXXXXXX

Dear Sir Madam

I have received a claim form number XXXXXXXX dated XXXXXXXXX. The Acknowledgment was sent and logged on Money Claim Online on (date), then submitted my Defence on (date) which was also logged in on MCOL. It’s now been nearly a year and I’ve not heard from you or the claimant UK Car Park Management Ltd. 

As per your letter dated XXXXXXXX the claimant should of and has not contacted me or the court within 28 days after receiving a copy of my defence. Where does the claim stand now?

Could you please give me an update regarding this claim and where it stands at the moment? 

Best regards

Hi I hope you’re well. 

All of these claims are about the same location during a period of about a month. 

Claim 1- Defendant: Me. Courtesy car. Last entry on the MCOL my defence(as mentioned above)

Claim 2- Defendant: Me. My Car. Defence was sent last month. Received Gladies DQ but Waiting for the N180 from the court. 

Claim 3- Defendant: Mum. Lost at hearing 

Claim 4- Defendant: Mum. LBC answered by a small claims advisor that they can’t make separate claims. Gladies is now asking my mum if she’s instructed this person to write to them on her behalf. How does she respond?

I hope you can help. Thanks

Hi Coupon-mad

Do you think this is ok to send? I’ll appreciate your input please.

Is that to send to the court?

If so, I usually suggest people add an objection to the case remaining indefinitely 'stayed' which would mean it can be re-opened years later, on the whim of the Claimant long after a consumer Defendant has more than likely moved house.

The Defendant objects to an indefinite 'stay' and further objects to any attempt by the Claimant to resurrect the case without firstly taking sufficient steps to check the address (a soft trace) as required by the CPRs and the relevant Code of Practice for private parking cases.  It cannot be right that a motorist can be indefinitely kept on a 'long lead' and held to ransom - potentially for ever -  by a parking firm using the court as an enabler to re-open an old case on a whim, yet with no requirement to establish the correct 'address for service' of the Defendant, many years down the line.

At the moment, the address for service remains the same but the burden should not be on a consumer to have to remember to inform the court and a notoriously aggressive parking firm about every move they make for the rest of their life, over a matter that appears dead.

Should this case ever be un-stayed, this note should please be placed before a Judge in order to prevent the injustice of a default CCJ behind the Defendant's back. Making an Order for the Claimant in this case to re-check the address for service if applying to lift the stay, would be the only fair way to protect the rights of a consumer Defendant and meet the Overriding Objective to deal with cases justly and at minimum costs to all.  A 'soft trace', to check addresses held, costs from just 29 pence and is routinely carried out free of charge by roboclaim solicitors acting for parking companies.


Re your mum's case:

Claim 4- Defendant: Mum. LBC answered by a small claims advisor that they can’t make separate claims. Gladies is now asking my mum if she’s instructed this person to write to them on her behalf. How does she respond?

She must state that this person is authorised to act on her behalf.  Is it David of Small Claims Advisor Ltd?

Thank you. I’ll include these paragraphs in the email as objection to stay. But I don’t know if it was decided to stay or just not processed yet? Or am I getting confused.
