Pcm county court claims , Gladstone's solicitors

Options
Please any good advice.

I received a county court claims from Gladstone's solicitors acting on behalf of parking control management.
The 2 PNC date back last year July and this year March and by my recollection I can't remember any PCN on my car or any letter from parking control management.

The first letter I ever received was today from county court claims. I have responded to the court to give me more time to prepare my defence statement.

I live on clarion housing association block with a parking permit, is so hard to find a parking space when my wife pick up the kids from school (three kids under 7), so sometimes she park in the yellow box infront of the block , most of the Resident park in the yellow box sometimes aswell because of limit parking spaces, my wife think PNC got issues for parking in yellow box infront of the housing block . There are about 50 flats only 14 parking spaces between us all.
Is so stressful sometimes my wife have to park 500 yards away and walk back home with the kids in the dark .
also my tenancy agreement says ,

we can use common land for whatever we what to, more importantly,
it does not say I will be charged £100 for parking my car on site,

Do you think I have chance fighting this claims.?
Please any advice would be great cuz I am thinking too much and it worries me.

Sorry about my English.

    What is the Issue Date on your Claim Form?

    You say "I have responded to the court to give me more time to prepare my defence statement".

    Does that mean you have filed an Acknowledgement of Service?
    If so, when?

    Yes, we see almost everyone here win!
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    With a Claim Issue Date of 5th November, and having done the AoS in a timely manner, you have until 4pm on Monday 10th December 2018 to file your Defence.

    Just about a month away. Loads of time to produce a perfect Defence, but don't leave it to the very last minute.


    When you are happy with the content, your Defence should be filed via email as described here:

    1) Print your Defence.
    2) Sign it and date it.
    3) Scan the signed document back in and save it as a pdf.
    4) Send that pdf as an email attachment to CCBCAQ@Justice.gov.uk
    5) Just put the claim number and the word Defence in the email title, and in the body of the email something like 'Please find my Defence attached'.
    6) Log into MCOL after a few days to see if the Claim is marked "defended". If not chase the CCBC until it is.
    7) Wait for your Directions Questionnaire and then re-read post #2 of the NEWBIES FAQ sticky thread to find out exactly what to do with it.
