    The only way to find out is wait till later in the week then phone your court and ask. Not tomorrow. Give them a few clear days.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Yesterday received an email from the court confirming the Claimant has paid the court fee so the fight continues.

    Now the WS.

    This to me looks like their not going to discontinue now at this stage. Has anyone known them to discontinue after paying the court fee?

    I would think that its unlikely,  if the hearing fee was paid  ( putting money where their mouth is   )

    Paying for the hearing is a clear intention to proceed 

    Not Paying for the hearing is a clear intention to discontinue 

    Mcol is never updated once they pass the case on to your local nominated civil court 

    VCS DCB Legal cases do tend to go to a hearing,  unlike ECP etc

    Why is the Private Parking Code of Practice 2022 temporarily withdrawn pending review of the levels of private parking charges and additional fees?

    Can we still use this code of practice in court even though its withdrawn?

    Would I still be able to use and refer to the PPCOP in court?

    The old government's draft one from 2022 is the one that has been withdrawn due to legal challenges.

    The 2024 version is still valid https://www.britishparking.co.uk/write/Documents/AOS/NEW%20Redesigned%20Documents/sectorsingleCodeofPractice.pdf
