Multiple PCNs for parking in flat car park

Does the 5 days for service + 14 days still apply for the DQ (as it does for the AoS)? If yes then you may have until 25-Jan-22 by which to file your DQ with the CCBC.
Is there an option on the DQ for any commentary? (If yes then you could state that the Claimant has notified you of their intention to discontinue, as per the enclosed email).Jenni x1 -
I thought the submission date for the N180 (DQ) was shown on the N149A - Notice of Proposed Allocation to Small Claims Track and is a fixed date as it says "you must by DD/MM/YY"3

If it's feasible to do so in some way I'd try - perhaps wait until next Monday to email the DQ in case they file the notice of discontinuance in the meantime, then email your DQ and include their email as an additional attachment.
(Take other's advice first - I'm not familiar with the details of the court process so I don't know if doing so would work for or against you).Jenni x3 -
Had a letter dated 13/01/22 from DCB:
"Without prejudice save as to costs"
"our client may be willing to withdraw their claim against you if you are willing to withdraw your counterclaim. Please call...."
I interpret that to mean that their client has realised they are unlikely to win and want to minimise their losses....1 -
Ah - there's a counter-claim in play. (Sorry - there are too many threads to remember the specifics of them all).
Do not call - everything must be kept in writing. If you respond then ensure you also use WPSATC.Jenni x3 -

I am thinking to email them (WPSATC) "if you can refund my £50 CC fee and drop your case, as well as any other cases in that car park*, I will drop my CC"
*so I can wriggle out of a separate case in that car park RE my car parked straddling the world's faintest bay markings
Is that a good idea? I feel that even if they agreed to my terms, they will break the gentleman's agreement and go after the car parked over the line case anyway...

If you wanted you could send them an email along those lines without using WPSATC or even WP ... that way should they break the agreement you could use it as evidence, and this could have a higher chance of passing the bar for unreasonable behaviour.Jenni x1

It's a good Idea , but ensure that you do not miss any deadlines for your own paperwork , regardless of the toing and froing behind the scenes
I would add that you want their client to give you a written assurance that there are no outstanding PCNs or charges and no future claims will arise from any historical charges. This should be a letter from the UKPC litigation department or manager direct to your name and address2 -
How can they add WPSATC when they use the word "may". Personally I would want my day in courtYou never know how far you can go until you go too far.0
