Thank you once again everyone. Having taken all the feedback into account, would you please mind reviewing my new draft of my husband’s defence, I would be very grateful for any comments, esp if I need to shorten it even more?:
The Defendant stationed his vehicle on the road outside of the entrance to the block of flats of his residence (address XYZ) to unload over twenty large and heavy furniture pieces. The Defendant’s Landlord – at the time of the “alleged offence” – did not provide any unloading bays for residents within the housing estate. The Defendant will rely upon the persuasive appeal case heard by HHJ Charles Harris QC at Oxford: Jopson v Homeguard Services Ltd [2016] - claim number B9GF0A9E. The Defendant argues that it is his right as a resident under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 to station his vehicle to the close proximity to his residence for the sake of legal unloading of extremely large, bulky and heavy objects – furniture pieces in this case - which does not constitute of “illegal parking”. There is absolutely no mention about, or especially prohibition of, unloading outside the Defendant’s residence in the Defendant's Tenancy Agreement. Furthermore, the Defendant argues that the photographic “evidence” of his alleged offence of “illegal parking” spanning thirteen seconds does not constitute of eligible evidence of illegal parking that the Claimant alleges. In the Defendant’s view, the Claimant’s case is without merit.
