Claim form recieved from CNBC, Northampton

Hi Newbie here.  As above, claim form recieved. Claimant, G24 Ltd
Address for sending doc's, DCB Legal Ltd
Claim form dated 16th April 2025 for an offence dated 13/02/2020
I cant remember receiving any Notices but it was over 5 YEARS AGO.
I recently started to get correspondence from DCB Legal which I chose to ignore.

Your help in this would be very much appreciated.

I doubt that any paperwork mentioned the word offence 

It would have been a Parking Charge Notice,  an invoice,  from G24, for the alleged breach of the parking contract on that private property,  so I bet that the claim form POC mentions the word,  contravention,  not offence  !

Not receiving paperwork is no defence 

Study the newbies sticky thread in announcements near the top of the forum,  second post,  carefully 

Login to MCOL via your government gateway account and complete the AOS online as explained in the Dropbox link

Study the defence template thread and start drafting your defence based on the template,  also looking at other recent G24 , DCB Legal cases from this month too, on here

But its a lot better than if the free information and advice weren't available,  put out by volunteers giving up their free time to assist victims unknown to them
