    Only send through email, not the post.
    Just to make i clear that @Car1980 means submit defence by e-mail as advised in the template defence thread NOT on MCOL.

    Thank you Coupon-mad .
    3. Referring to the POC: paragraph 1 is denied. The Defendant is not indebted to the Claimant. Paragraph 2 is denied. No PCN was "issued on xx/xx/xxxx" (the date of the alleged visit).  Whilst the Defendant is the registered keeper, paragraphs 3 and 4 are denied. The Defendant is not liable and has seen no evidence of a breach of prominent terms.  The quantum is hugely exaggerated (no PCN can be £170 on private land) and there were no damages incurred whatsoever. The Claimant is put to strict proof of all of their allegations.

    Hi everyone! 
    I just wanted to say a huge thank you to all of you who helped me with my parking ticket case. The case in court has been discontinued, so I don’t have to pay anything. I’m really grateful for your time, advice, and support! 💙

    Yes please @Kon27. Well done in seeing them off. 
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.
