Thread: bailiff action already paid.

Yes. It's complicated.

bailiffs are acting for the authority that issued the ticket, so you have to take it up with them (the LA) and add it to a claim for damages. You can (I think) either make a direct informal approach to the authority involved, or take out a claim in the county court (small claim) or file the usual stat decs and take it to appeal. But where had the process got to, there would be more paperwork after the NTO like a Charge Certificate before bailiff action? No CC no warrant etc. in which case take it up with the bailiffs and the LA as they are directing the dogs.

It really does depend what other paperwork there is.

And it is a nightmare.

Nero,

Might be worth a PM with full details to Tomtubby or Screwthebailiff. Both are regulars in the bailiffs section. Might also be worth posting the question there.
