Did they really issue a "Penalty Charge Notice"?1

See the template for paragraph 2
^^ADD 'and driver' if admitting that.
if you were not driving and believe the NTK was non-POFA, add that fact.
You should be truthful, plus if the NTK PCN letter complied with POFA, then add and driver if you were the driver, especially because a known driver is a first person witness , your defence is a statement of truth
If Pofa2012 was complied with, then a keeper/ driver argument is moot, read the following post

Not if you are using MCOL as is the current advice
Copy and paste the template, removing the instructions about 2 and 3, edit 2, add your 3 , job done, paste it into the MCOL defence box , save, submit
Just follow the new advice as is2 -

Para 3 should use the usual words about Chan and Akande to strike the case out.
Then an extra para 4 should be a about how long it took you to pay and why, and that you appealed and the Claimant rejected it outright. Copy the defence words you found when you searched for:
Hannah Robinson wonders mine defendant
I PROMISE that search finds the paragraph to copy. Change to 'newest' and read more than just a handful of the first results. Read more of the results till you find a defence with the words you need about the 5 minute rule.
If by adding a para 4 and renumbering the rest, the template doesn't fit when you try to save it in the MCOL defence box, just delete the final paragraph about discontinuances / the White book. You can do the final adjustments without our help: make it fit.
Then hit SUBMIT defence. Don't just save it, or it is not in!PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
