This week yet another person has been found guilty in court of cutting off a vehicle clamp and unfortunately this case is yet another one where the 'ownership' of the vehicle is highly questionable. In brief, the individual attempted to justify his action on the basis that he claimed to be the 'owner' of the vehicle that had been clamped. He stated that he had not received any documentation in relation to the contravention. On this point he would have been telling the truth given that all statutory notices are by law sent to the 'registered keeper' (this is the person whose name appears on the V5c....commonly called the log book). For reasons that are very unclear, the defendant transferred his vehicle into the name of his flatmate and both he and his flatmate were recored as joint drivers on the vehicle insurance!!! It is cases such as this one that are the root cause of enforcement companies and local authorities viewing 'interpleader' and 'third party' claims with such suspicion. The legal position is that unless clear proof is provided, the registered keeper is deemed to be the owner of the vehicle. I will post details of the relevant legislation in the next post.

Only just seen this from Parking News Dec 2014; http://portfolio.cpl.co.uk/Parking-News/337/1/ Some friend... This also from Dec 2014, BPA website, latest news; Private parking can confuse motorists - is it time to regulate? 24 December 2014 Citizens Advice recently announced it has experienced an increase in motorists seeking advice on parking on private land and the legalities of enforcement. However, the BPA says it receives referrals from them to advise motorists on all types of parking, but that it was very rare to receive cases to investigate. Patrick Troy, CEO of the BPA said: “Unfortunately Citizens Advice fails to mention in their advice that if a motorist’s appeal is rejected by a parking operator in the BPA's Approved Operator Scheme they can take their appeal to POPLA, an independent appeals service for motorists in receipt of parking tickets issued on private land. Over 50,000 motorists have done this since 1st October 2012 when it was introduced. It is a free and simple process and the decision is binding on the operator, but not on the motorist. http://www.britishparking.co.uk/News/private-parking-can-confuse-motorists-is-it-time-to-regulate

Hello, could anyone clarify what tribunals might consider a detriment and/or injuries to feelings? Is it clearly defined somewhere? For example, if I said that the outcome/conclusion of an internal hearing was unreasonable - could I say that was a detriment to me (and upset me)?
