Parking Charge companies and small claims court data

Todd_J_Bonzalez_the_Third

Hello, some time ago, possibly not on this forum, I saw a table of data relating to a breakdown of numbers of small claims cases taken to court by parking charge firms and how many had been successful. Could anyone point me in the right direction as to where this information is likely to be available?

No such table exists.  We can't find that out (I've tried but was refused by the MoJ).

I think you are thinking of the POPLA Annual Reports table, that looks very much as you describe.

Thank you for the response, pity that information is not available. I thought I had seen something like it, perhaps on another website. I did find some numbers (below) from an FOI requeste, but the data is not very recent.

From the list shown it's not clear what happens beyond getting the rating. Some of our 'stars' are consistently receiving a red rating, year-on-year. At face value it looks like a bit of a paper exercise.
