    @Nomad2020 leaves ParkingEye and DCB Legal 'wandering' what happened as we see yet another cowardly discontinuance.

    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.

    Hello, I haven't posted my case here but I followed all the steps and DCB have discontinued their claim before the witness statement due date. I only know this from calling the court after the witness statement was due as I hadn't received theirs. It was only then I found out they had discontinued the claim a couple of weeks before. Rather frustrating as I wasted time doing the WS when I didn't have to. I have emailed the court multiple times for a copy of the NOD but still haven't received it. Not sure what to do now! 

    Anyway thanks very much to this forum for helping me get the claim discontinued. I was from a parking fine from 2019 for over staying for 15mins in a shopping centre car park. UKPC was the client.
    Thanks! But we can only count your success on this thread if you show us the attached NoD so ask DCB Legal for it by return email or you'll apply for your wasted costs. Tell them that.
    I've finally had the NoD for my claim...

    👆👆 Thanks @tonywiv with copy of your confirming NoD. UKPC and DCB Legal put to the sword.

    Please tell anyone showing the N279 to NOT redact the name of the person who has signed it. I note that of those that are not redacted, they are all signed by "paralegals" and are not using their full name.

    Anyone in receipt of an N279 from DCB Legal should send an email to info@dcblegal.co.uk along these lines:
    Subject: Claim [court ref] – N279 signed “claimant’s solicitor” (paralegal): authority to conduct litigation & signature compliance

    Dear Sir/Madam,

    I refer to the N279 (Notice of Discontinuance) filed/served in this matter. The signature block describes the signatory as “claimant’s solicitor”, position “paralegal” at DCB Legal, with the name shown as “[initial] [surname]”.

    Please confirm by return:

    1. The signatory’s full name (forename and surname), their capacity, and whether they are an “authorised person” within the meaning of the Legal Services Act 2007 with a current right to conduct litigation (provide their SRA/CILEX number and practising status); or, if not,

    2. The precise exemption relied upon under Schedule 3 of the Legal Services Act 2007 permitting them to conduct litigation and sign the N279 (and any related statements of truth/certifications) in this matter.

    For the avoidance of doubt, filing/serving an N279 and related correspondence are acts of “conducting litigation”. If any person purporting to conduct litigation or to sign documents requiring a personal signature is not authorised (or exempt), please confirm the steps you will take to remedy the irregularity, including filing and serving a compliant N279 personally signed by an authorised person, and your position on costs arising.

    You are placed on notice that if any signatory or employee is conducting litigation without the required authorisation or exemption, any breach of the Legal Services Act 2007 will be reported to the SRA and I reserve the right to raise it with the Court, including on costs.

    Please respond within 7 days.

    Yours faithfully,

    [full name]
    [postal address]
    [email]
