    It's not my link. Simply use the forum link as my signature explains.

    It's not going to court.

    You kindly responded to my thread around scotish parking 4 years ago above You have referred me to the newbies link but not really understanding what to do on there so many different options  not sure which one to use with it being in Scotland or am I missing something I  read one of your replies saying scotish laws are diff and to reply to the link on the letter of claim saying it’s in Scottish jurisdiction. 
  • Following all the above I have now got a court letter from Northampton pursuing the money . 
    I have defended this from day 1 I never parked in this carpark at any point . Obviously Scotland finds now can be pursued in England . 
    I will defend it grossly unfair.

    Scotland PCNs (contracts made in Scotland) can't be pursued in England.
