PCN County Court Claim - HELP!!

Hello, 

I received a private PCN from UKCPS LTD on the 14th of May 2024 at Northern Lights car park in Liverpool. This car park is part of a music rehearsal space (as well as other local businesses), which I was using on the day for a 2-hour booking, which I'd be able to prove if necessary. The rehearsal room states that each rehearsal room booking is allowed to park one vehicle in the car park, which is why I parked here; however, it turns out the rehearsal room needs to give you a temporary permit for the time, which I wasn't given and therefore received a PCN. 

When I initially received the PCN, I just ignored it after reading advice on this forum, and after a few months of nagging, the letters stopped, and I thought that was that. However, I've since received a County Court Claim and I intend to fight it, but I really do need a hand as I don't have a clue what I'm doing. 

Also, probably irrelevant, but the vehicle which received the PCN I no longer own as I sold this vehicle a few months ago. I'll attach a photo of the claim below. 

I'm just about to submit my AOS. I'm aware I've only got until Friday to do this, so I'll do it in the next hour. And then I'll draft my defence and keep you all posted here, but any advice at any stage would help massively and will just calm my nerves haha!

Thanks in advance.

    That UNREDACTED picture needs reporting for removal ASAP,  due to the unredacted private information on show

    UKCPS via Moorside Legal,  issue date 18th July,  inadequate POC, unspecified,  so the AOS is done on MCOL first, then draft the defence using the template defence with Chan and Akande added, same as all the other Moorside Legal cases on here

    The fact that you no longer own the vehicle is irrelevant,  yes, it was yours at the time

    Redacted version:



    Copy any Moorside defence from July. All the dame. All cite Chan and Akande.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
