    Please delete that 'defence' post as it is out of date.  It's also making your thread too long, which puts people off who only have a minute to skim-read each thread/post each day.

    Instead go to the thread by @shahib_02 and use the new para 3 - and don't show us the whole defence please, not the whole template even though you are using it all!
    Fingers crossed here for you also but could you now complete the request as above by @Coupon-mad to delete your old defence post.

    Deleted although them two screenshots of discontinuation got deleted too, do you need them still for reference? 

    I believe this is the defence post you were referring to?

    If this thread is now about the DCB Legal January 2025 claim please can you edit the thread title, @Havoc88

    Also which Claimant is this from?

    Please show us a picture of the POC as well.  What caused the PCN?

    Hi, thanks for the reply  I’ve now edited the thread title as requested.


    I’ve attached the POC to this post. The Claimant is CE ltd.


    The background is basically the same as the other case involving this dodgy car park, only cash payments were accepted at the time (this was during the COVID period), and the signage was poor and unclear, as shown in the attached photos. I never received any letters or reminders about this at all, the first I knew of it was when the court papers arrived through the post.


    I did attend mediation, and I genuinely tried to settle it there by offering £10 just to put the whole thing to bed, but DCB Legal weren’t willing to accept that and pushed for the full amount. So now I’ve had a letter from St Helens court saying a judge will decide on allocation, which is a bit crazy considering it’s around 160 miles away from where I live.


    Thanks again for the help, much appreciated.

    But does that letter include the N180?

    You just do what everyone else has done whose DCB Legal case was wrongly allocated to St Helens.

    Search the forum for wording. Put the RIGHT court in the N180 and covering email and head it up 'complaint: incorrect court allocated".

    Please see attached screenshots from my N180.

    could you please also specify who shall I contact, Northampton business centre or the actual county court in St.Helens

    Best regards!

    Email that to St Helens and in the body of the email complain that this case was wrongly allocated (see also the thread someone answered on today where they have a phone hearing at St Helens).

    Thank you. I’ve emailed all the relevant addresses at the CNBC and St Helens County Court. I’ll follow up with a phone call tomorrow to see if I can speak to someone at both the CNBC and St Helens.
