    • This is the other sign  parking sign 1a.pdf
    • 4 means that they need to name and then tell the people who will be affected that there has been an application made, what the application relates to (specificially "whether it relates to the exercise of the court’s jurisdiction in relation to P’s property and affairs, or P’s personal welfare, or to both) and what this application contains (i.e what order they want made as a result of it) 5 just means that teh court think it is important that the relevant people are notified 7 means that the court need more information to make the application, hence they have then made the order of paragraph 1 which requires the applicant to do more - this means the court can't make a decision with the current information, and need more, hence paragraph one of the order is for the applicant to do more. paragraph 3 of the order gives you the ability to have it set aside, although if it was made in january you are very late. Were you notiifed of the application or not?    
    • These are the photos of the signs. At the entrance there is a 7h free sign. On some bays there is a permit sign.  Also their official website is misleading as it implies all parking is free.  I can't be certain of the exact parking bay I was in that day, and there was no PCN ticket on my car and no other evidence was provided.  parking sign 2.pdf
    • Hi, In my last post I mentioned I had received an email from SS who were asking me to hand over the keys to my mother’s flat so they could pass them to the Law firm who have been appointed court of protection to access, secure and insure my mother’s property.  Feeling this, all quickly getting out of my hands I emailed ss requesting proof of this. I HAVEN’T HEARD BACK FROM SS.  Yesterday, I received an email (with attached court of protection order) from the Law Firm confirming this was correct (please see below a copy of this).  After reading the court of protection order I do have some concerns about it:   (a)   I only found out yesterday, the Law firm had been appointed by the court back in January.  Up until now, I have not received any notification regarding this.  (b)   Section 2   - States I am estranged from my mother.  This is NOT CORRECT    The only reason I stepped back from my mother was to protect myself from the guy (groomer) who had befriended her & was very aggressive towards me & because of my mother’s dementia she had become aggressive also.  I constantly tried to warned SS about this guy's manipulative behaviour towards my mother and his increasing aggressiveness towards me (as mentioned in previous posts).  Each time I was ignored.  Instead, SS encouraged his involvement with my mother – including him in her care plans and mental health assessments.   I was literally pushed out because I feared him and my mother’s increasing aggression towards me. Up until I stepped back, I had always looked after my mother and since her admission to the care home, I visit regularly.   .(c)    Sections -  4, 5 and 7  I am struggling to understand these as I don’t have a legal background.  I was wondering if there is anyone who might be able to explain what they mean.  It’s been a horrendous situation where I had to walk away from my mother at her most vulnerable because of; ss (not helping), scammer and groomer. I have no legal background, nor experience in highly manipulative people or an understanding of how the SS system operates, finding myself isolated, scared and powerless to the point I haven’t collected my personal belongings and items for my mother’s room in the care home.  Sadly, the court has only had heard one version of this story SS’s, and based their decision on that. My mother’s situation and the experience I have gone through could happen to anyone who has a vulnerable parent.    If anyone any thoughts on this much appreciated.  Thank you. ______________________________________________________  (Below is the Court of Protection Order)  COURT OF PROTECTION                                                                                                                                                                                   No xxx  MENTAL CAPACITY ACT 2005 In the matter of Name xxx ORDER Made by  Depty District Judge At xxx Made on xxx Issued on 18 January 2024  WHEREAS  1.     xxx Solicitors, Address xxx  ("Applicant”) has applied for an order under the Mental Capacity Act 2005.  2.     The Court notes (my mother) is said to be estranged from all her three children and only one, (me) has been notified.  3.     (Me) was previously appointed as Atorney for Property and Affairs for (my mother).  The Exhibity NAJ at (date) refers to (me) and all replacement Attorneys are now officially standing down.  4.     Pursuant to Rule 9.10 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 and Practice Direction 9B the Applicant 2must seek to identify at least three persons who are likely to have an interest in being notified that an application has been issues.”  The children of (my mother), and any other appointed attorneys are likely to have an interest in the application, because of the nature of relationship to (my mother).  5.     The Court considers that the notification requirements are an important safeguard for the person in respect of whom an order is sought.  6.     The Court notes that it is said that the local authority no longer has access to (my mother’s) Property.  7.     Further information is required for the Court to determine the application.  IT IS ORDERED THAT  Within 28 days of the issue date this order, the Applicant shall file a form COP24 witness statement confirming that the other children of (my mother) and any replacement attorneys have been notified of the application and shall confirm their name, address, and date upon which those persons were notified.  If the Applicant wishes the Court to dispense with any further notification, they should file a COP9 and COP24 explaining, what steps (if any) have been taken to attempt notification and why notification should be dispensed with.   Pending the determination of the application to appoint a deputy for (my mother), the Applicant is authorised to take such steps as are proportionate and necessary to access, secure and insure the house and property of (my mother).   This order was made without a hearing and without notice.  Any person affected by this order may apply within 21 days of the date on which the order was served to have the order set aside or varied pursuant to Rule 13.4 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 (“the Rules”).  Such application must be made on Form COP9 and in accordance with Part 10 Rules.              
    • Unless I've got an incorrect copy of the relevant regulation: The PCN is only deemed to have arrived two days after dispatch "unless the contrary is proved" in which case date of delivery does matter (not just date of posting) and I would like clarification of the required standard of proof. It seems perhaps this hasn't been tested. Since post is now barcoded for the Post Office's own tracking purposes perhaps there is some way I can get that evidence from the Post Office...

    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

Good evening everyone!

 

A friend of mine has just contacted me and told me a story of how she had just visited a Sports Direct store in East Ham, London. She was just looking around there in search of some clothes and when she tried to take a shirt from the hanger, huge insects started falling out of its folds. She began recording this with her smart phone camera and asked the manager to comment the situation. But the manager just told her to stop recording and "get out of the shop!" :shock:

So she is not going to try and contact Sport Directs anymore and want to proceed with complaint straight to appropriate authorities. Please advise where should she write the complaint and how should she use that video as the evidence.

 

Thank you in advance!

You can put the video up here as well.

Oh, she will put it on youtube for sure, but she wants the shop administration to be brought to responsibility for their actions. That was an obvious violation of the law:

 

1) the cockroaches, bugs or whatever they were inside the clothes

2) the actions of the manager

 

Should she just sit and wait how ordinary people watch it on youtube? May be better to report it to the local council?

Thank you. Which way is better: 1) upload it on youtube and put the link here

 

or

 

2) upload the video on some cloud storage and then jput the link here for people to be able to download it and watch.

 

 

NB

 

she is still on her way home to west london, so i think i'll be able to post the video here tonight

 

Not necessarily.

We would need to see the vid 1st.

 

Actions of the manager, although not very customer orientated, are within the stores rights.

 

She will give me the video later, she is still on her way home to west london, where she lives.

 

Are the stores rights are above the main law of the UK?

 

As far as i understand people have the right to record on video anything happening in public places.

 

The shop is a public place.

 

insects inside the clothes are are breach of health and safety rules, aren't they?

Unhygienic state of the stores is an offence isn't it?

Preventing people from filming an offence in a public place is unlawfull, isn't it?

Technically, all of Britain is owned by somebody.

Owners may be private individuals, companies, organisations or the Queen (e.g. a "public park" is probably owned by the local town council.)

 

Any of those landlords can, and often will, impose limits on photography or film making as they wish.

Mostly these landlords will not restrict non-commercial photography, but commercial work often requires permission and sometimes payment.

 

A licence or permit may be required if you are filming an event where the organisers’ and/or the owner’s permission is needed.

In practice, taking pictures from the public highway or many places generally accessible to the public is unlikely to be challenged.

 

Council owned parks and buildings, transport stations, church property, shopping malls, theatres, stadiums and the like usually do enforce restrictions.

Filming on public transport is the same as on private land; you do need the owners’ or operators’ consent.

So you've proven my point and answered your own question

 

well, the main thing was not if a shop was a private place or not really.. wasn't it?)

 

the main thing is that the shop staff had no right to prevent people from recording an offence and had no right to demand them to delete the files from the smart phone.

Well, in that case they can even ask me to kill myself on the spot, but it is my right to refuse to do so.

 

It is not their right to refuse to sell me anything for any reason. It would be violation of my consumer rights, as well as forcing me to leave.

You've got it all back to front.

They can refuse to sell you anything and everything they have on offer.

It is not a violation of your consumer rights. They dont want to form a contract with you and that's there right.

Also they can force you to leave. You can be banned for any reason they like as long as its within the law.

You need to do some research on this.

It looks like you don't understand how the law works. Of course they can't refuse to sell me anything and everything they have on offer. The law imposes strict limits on them.

It is violation. You don't understand what public offer contract means.

They can't force me to leave if they want to act by the law. I can't be banned for any reason they like, because the law strictly limits such sorts of reasons.

Where did you do your researches on this?

It is in no way a belief, it is a fact.

 

I knew you wouldn't be able to disprove my words

 

Oh dear.

You are wrong.

 

A) The store is a public place in so far as it is a place the public may enter. It is also private property. The store allow an implied licence for the public to enter (so permission is implied for anyone to enter), but this has limitations : for example store opening hours. In the same way as they can set hours on which the public are allowed to enter, or mark areas “staff only”, they can rescind the implied invitation to enter, and ask anyone to leave, at any time, for whatever reason.

 

B) They don’t have to serve you / sell you anything. Having products on the shelves, with prices on display ; is only an “invitation to treat”, not an offer you can accept. It invites you to make such an offer, which they don’t have to accept.

The Court of Appeal determined this.

sgtbush, it looks like you are right..

 

BazzaS, thank you for the answer.

 

sigh. Freeman nonsense again. I bet the original event never actually happened.

 

The event was actually recorded on video. The thing is that I still haven't got the video or the link. She didn't have time yesterday to put it on youtube with a brief description. But she will definetely give it to me, and I will share it here.
