DCB Legal Court Date March Resident

Coupon-mad

If the hearing tomorrow is in person and it's snowing nearby, set off very early.  Don't let anything stop you (or is he attending without you?).

Please let us know what happens at this hearing, and in the end re the appeal over the ludicrous 19 x £160 that lady Recorder granted, too.

The Recorder last time may have been part time and just not grasping the scam, and perhaps not getting that a resident has rights that in most cases trump some scam clamper with cable-tied cardboard signs:

Today 2pm will let you know what happens

and will most certainly let you know what happens with lady recorder 

he didn’t have the greatest things to say about her judgement and referred to her as an “idiot” 😂😂

I lost again. 

Because I could only obtain a copy of the tenancy agreement and it wasn’t signed. Judge awarded £100 per PCN + 3% total £785 instead of £1900

Seems very unfair. How on earth could you have had an old signed version of a tenancy agreement?

District Judge this time?

Good luck with the appeal re the other one where a clueless Recorder granted 19 x £60 extra, for no justification.

Disappointing, so sorry to hear the result. Was Jackson Yamba alongside you in court?

Yes he was alongside me in court

His spoken about appealing it but tbh I don’t know if it’s worth it. He said if I can get a signed tenancy agreement then it may be

Your landlord and the letting agents will have it.  You could ask for it under a SAR. They have to release it.

Omg really? So they can’t refuse? Because we didn’t part on the greatest of terms tbh

I was hoping for some help regarding a court case I have coming up with DCB Legal for several PCNS from when I lived as a resident at an apartment with gated underground parking which was only accessible via fob. There were times when my child who has autism would have a meltdown and during rage would grab anything within site throwing it etc and a good handful of times this was the permit. 

I have my contract to prove I was a resident. 

Is there anything I can do to win this. The amount they are saying I owe is in the thousands 
As I was a resident do you think this is enough for me not to have to pay? Worst case scenario if I have to pay will it be the thousands of pounds I’m literally worried sick. Wish I could send my husband in my place 😩 I think being a woman makes it scarier 

Same situation all for my old residence where I was a tenant

My tenancy agreement says I have the right to park and doesn’t say I need to display a permit 

UPDATE 

- Claim one: part discontinued (2 PCNs) then Judge Cohen struck the claim out for poorly pleaded particulars

- Claim two: DCB Legal discontinued

- Claim three is for £3947.84 and is for 19 pcns 

- Claim four also multiple PCNs

- more claims coming as there are more LBCs

Does anybody have any pointers for valid points I can bring up about this sign at my hearing on Wednesday? This is the only sign included in DCB legal witness statement 

Colonizemars said:

Something told me to type my surname into the search bar on courtserve. Lo and behold a hearing has come up. It’s all the way in central London. Not Edmonton. Even though the witness statement that DCB Legal sent had CC’d in Edmonton county court 

I’m fuming. Thank goodness I even thought to type my name on otherwise I would have turnt up at the wrong court. Its in strand 10am with 2 hours allocated 

I’m riddled with anxiety after reading how official this particular court is I feel like not going 

but I have to because I can’t afford to pay £3600 in charges 

I’m hoping the judge just says not to speak unless asked a question this is horrifying 

tenancy agreement I had to request from estate agent they didn’t have our old one and I didn’t have the old one either as I left 2 and a half years ago  so they printed off our old tenancy agreement but without signatures  

OUTCOME OF CLAIM THREE:

I lost £3990.20 judge granted claimant 

The judge's words were "you’ve been given incorrect information. You have no right just because you’re a tenant" But advised me to contact my landlord which is impossible I moved out two years ago 

h2g2 said:

Do you still have the tenancy agreement? It should have the landlord's name and a serviceable address on it.

Perhaps the suggestion from the judge was that you could recover this money from the landlord, if they gave you a contract with parking rights that did not actually exist.

This is a worrying result for anyone on ASTs. An invitation for PPCs to abuse tenants on ASTs knowing that the landlord most likely won't give a flying something-or-another about it. If the tenancy agreement included the right to use the parking area without extra charge (I can't remember what it said - I'm sure it's somewhere in this thread) this result would imply that the signs are stronger than the AST contract?

Yeah I still have it. Judge didn’t ask to see any of my exhibits although she had them upfront. I brought extra copies. I stated my contract doesn’t say I need to display a permit. It says that I can use any bay permitted.

I told her I have a key fob for entrance into the car park.

I told her that I have had another claim for the same building struck out.

She didn’t care. She granted them interest of 4% and 160£ per PCN 19 in total 

I’m devastated because I can’t pay it. And now my credits going to be ruined.
