    The issue date was 30/06 and the AOS was 14/7, I think I have until next Monday to file my defence so it's my priority for this week.
    Your deadline is Monday 4th August at 4pm

    OK, so you need to use Chan and Akande in para 3 of your defence (search the forum for wording) as well as stating that you are disabled and did not breach a term, and the supposed new obligation to 'register' the Blue Badge as well as display it, is clearly an unfair, unexpected and onerous burden which breaches both the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and the Equality Act 2010.

    To fit all that in using MCOL (we now advise defendants do use it), you may have to remove the final paragraph of the short Template Defence. That's fine.
    As above, concentrate on what I suggested above. Your version is too long and has muddled things up a bit. Not needed. Don't reinvent the wheel. Use the template as is.

    Don't throw in old stuff like Hetherington-Jakeman and Masterson from two hundred* years ago!


    *I might be exaggerating...
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

  • Hi, could I ask for some advice please because I'm getting confused! I initially thought that they had dropped the case because there were no updates on mcol but then on the 10th this all appeared! I've been sent the form in the post and it needs to be sent today (it arrived when I was on holiday), it says I need to send copies on all parties, does anyone know how to do that? I'm assuming I can email ParkingEye a copy? Should I have received a copy of their DQ? Also,what should I put in the E1 section as shown? Is that my details?

    Download the N180 DQ pdf document from the government website and fill it in and save it 

    Read step 2 onwards in the defence template thread,  so in the 8 steps 

    Email your completed N180 DQ pdf document to the litigation email address at Parking Eye and also to the DQ email address at the CNBC in Northampton,  so one email,  one attachment,  2 destinations 

    I presume that DCB LEGAL are not shown on the top left of the claim form   ?  Just Parking Eye   ?

    If DCB LEGAL are listed,  send the completed N180 to the DQ email address at the CNBC in Northampton and copy in the info@ email address for DCB Legal
