Hi. I received the notice of set aside application 2 days before it was heard. I phoned and said it was too short notice, then was told I didn't need to attend. However I insisted on writing a letter to the judge which I confirmed was given to him. My letter said that he should deny the set aside appeal because their story that they were in the Court and didn't hear the clerk calling them 3 times wasn't credible. Frankly was amazed at the turn of events. I await a written explanation from the magistrate. Thanks for the tip on 7 days. I intend to apply for expenses and loss of earnings at the re hearing.

I couldn't care less what it costs it's not about money. These guys extorted £120 from me on my land. I'm going the whole hog.

Hi. I wasn't invited to Court but wrote a letter saying they were called 3 times but clearly weren't there. The judge appears to have ignored it and listed it for a higher court. I will be arguing against the set aside. Thanks.

Yes, Whitehall and Minerva. I should add I emailed an appeal to them twice also a registered letter but no reply. They ignored me completely. GT

Hi, I was clamped and the guy was still there doing it when I returned to the car. He extracted £120 from me for 2 minutes work. I'm an apartment owner and paid 10K for my space and have the deeds . I took them to small claims. They didn't turn up and the judge awarded me £120 + costs. They then successfully applied for it to be set aside now I've been told it's on the Civil Bill List next month and it could cost me money. As far as I'm concerned I'll go to the House of Lords if I have to but would welcome your input.
