Hello

Hope anyone can help

My son received an enforcement notice from the guys at Equita regarding parking with wheels on the footway.

he has no recollection of this being an 18 year old and what they have to think about he's unlikely going to.

he don't remember the incident and certainly didn't have a ticket on the car.

The offence took place last June 2017, no correspondence the local authority have been received at all but this one from Equita a week ago. .The original debt was £118 its now £235, we are all in the wrong business!!!

What i would like to know is,

is this enforceable and should he just ignore it.

The car is no longer in his possession,

although he is still the registered owner

Its off the road SORN but not at his address,

he doesn't work,

he's a student and nothing in the house belongs to him other than clothing.

How far can they go ??

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Thank you in advance

its a fine

and although its rare they CAN force entry.

you do NOT ignore bailiffs on fines ever!.

if he has not moved over the full time of owning the car,

why has he not received the numerous other letters from the council etc before this?

or has he binned them all and not told you?

He hasn't binned them we haven't received anything he is off at college all day so he doesn't even see the mail, we have had nothing form the council

then i'd be ringing the relevant council dept tomorrow and telling them this

they should inform you what to do to get things sorted.

This is an ordinary everyday Penalty Charge Notice issued by a local authority. It is not a fine and there is no provision for forced entry.

If your son had not received any previous notices, then it is usual that all notices had been sent to a previous address. What you need to ascertain is what address was on the V5C (Log Book) when the contravention occurred (June 2017). Please post back once your son has located the Log Book.
