    • I googled "prescribed disability" to see where it is defined for the purposes of S.92. I found HMRC's definition, which included deafness. I don't  think anyone is saying deaf people cant drive, though! digging deeper,  Is it that “prescribed disability” (for the purposes of S.88 and S.92) is defined at: The Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) Regulations 1999 WWW.LEGISLATION.GOV.UK These Regulations consolidate with amendments the Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) Regulations 1996...   ….. and sleep apnoea / increased daytime sleepiness is NOT included there directly as a condition but only becomes prescribed under “liability to sudden attacks of disabling giddiness or fainting” (but falling asleep isn't fainting!), so it isn’t defined there as a “prescribed disability”  Yet, under S.92(2)(b) RTA 1988 “ any other disability likely to cause the driving of a vehicle by him in pursuance of a licence to be a source of danger to the public" So (IMHO) sleep apnea / daytime sleepiness MIGHT be a prescribed disability, but only if it causes likelihood of "driving being a source of danger to the public" : which is where meeting / not meeting the medical standard of fitness to drive comes into play?  
    • You can counter a Judges's question on why you didn't respond by pointing out that any company that charges you with stopping at a zebra crossing is likely to be of a criminal mentality and so unlikely to cancel the PCN plus you didn't want to give away any knowledge you had at that time that could allow them to counteract your claim if it went to Court. There are many ways in which you can see off their stupid claim-you will see them in other threads  where our members have been caught by Met at other airports as well as Bristol.  Time and again they take motorists to Court for "NO Stopping" apparently completely forgetting that the have lost doing that because no stopping is prohibitory and cannot form a contract. Yet they keep on issuing PCNs because so many people just pay up . Crazy . You can see what chuckleheads they are when you read their Claim form which is pursuing you as the driver or the keeper. they don't seem to understand that on airport land because of the Bye laws, the keeper is never liable.

    • 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.

Just had a quick flick through the AQ and have noticed that the form is an N150 and not N149, does it matter? even though the claim is under 5K. Do you think I should querie this with the court as it might be an error on their part.

 

Am I aloud to fill in and use the pdf format form or do I have to use the form supplied?

 

Cheers in advance, no doubt there may be other questions as I don't want to slip up at this late stage.

Doesn't make any difference. With all the claims they've probably run out of N149's

Am I aloud to fill in and use the pdf format form or do I have to use the form supplied?

Either

2. Their defence is shorter than some they have submitted, but otherwise entirely standard.

 

I have same kind of defence from Natwest too - it runs to 4 pages and says nothing more than they've not got enough information to submit a proper defence!

Hi Guys just a few questions before I submit AQ(N150).

 

1. On page 1 it states my father as the 1st claimant and part 20 cliamant, don't understand the Part 20 bit.

 

2. Section D Case management

Im doing the claim for my dad so do I include myself in here and to what facts am I witness to? My dad doesn't want to appear himself if it came to it.

 

3. Section H Other Information

Do you intend to make any applications in the immediate future?

 

Do I sign the form as im the litigation friend striking through Counsel, Solicitor, 2nd, 3rd and defendant?

 

Finally in other info do I put in their that my father gives me permission to carry out this claim on his behalf?

 

Cheer guys, hopefully thats it.

Are yiou sur it says this, since Part 20 is about Countercalims by the Defendant.

2. Section D Case management

Im doing the claim for my dad so do I include myself in here and to what facts am I witness to?

No, leave blank.

My dad doesn't want to appear himself if it came to it
.

Even with you as a Litigants friend, your father would have to be present.

3. Section H Other Information

Do you intend to make any applications in the immediate future?

 

No

Do I sign the form as im the litigation friend striking through Counsel, Solicitor, 2nd, 3rd and defendant?

Dont't know. Suggest you phone the court for advice.

Hi Michael,

 

cheers again for advice.

 

Are yiou sure it says this, since Part 20 is about Countercalims by the Defendant.

 

Only where the court staff have filled in the details ie

 

To be completed by, or on behalf of,

"Chuck"

who is [1st][2nd][3rd][Claimant][Defendant][Part 20 Claimant] in this claim.

The only boxes that have a pen stroke through are [2nd][3rd] & [Defendant]

Unless its an error on their part, or unless they are going to counter claim.

However im using the pdf template version should I strike it out myself or is it that the AQ they send to the Solicitors whereby they strike it out if they are not going to counter claim.

 

Hope ive explained it alright. Any thoughts much appreciated.

 

Chuck.

Well nearly there with submitting AQ. Was going to use the new strategy but couldn't think what to use for Statement of evidence as Cobbetts didn't admit to anything ref charges.

 

3. No admissions are made as to what charges have been debited to the Claimant’s account.

 

So thought it prudent to do it the tried and tested way, unless anyone has any idea's about how to draft the statement. AQ deadline is 15.01.07.

There seem to be quite a few offers coming today, think this is the fourth time I've posted this reply......lol

 

Thank you for your letter dated xth January 2007.

 

I respectfully decline your offer of settlement and request, once again, that you return to me all charges imposed on this account, interest and court fees, which together with the daily rate of £0.XX now total £xxxx as of XXth January 2007.

 

I will accept the sum offered only as part settlement and on the clear understanding that I will pursue recovery of the remainder.

 

I will be willing to withdraw my claim upon receipt of unconditional full settlement of my claim.

 

I am also not prepared to agree to any confidentiality clauses you try to impose, unless of course your client wishes to make an offer of due consideration in addition to the amount of £xxxxx, in order to be afforded this privilege by myself.

 

I trust this clarifies my position.

 

Yours faithfully

Need help here guys, don't know whether I have dropped a clanger or not.

 

Recieved AQ from defence today stating:-

 

"We refer the court to the Defendant's Solicitor letter dated 22.12.2006 and respectfully request that this claim be struck out on the basis that the claim form is defective having not been signed by the Claimant personally or by a solicitor acting for him and there being no reason for proposed litigation friend".

 

Im claiming for my dad and when I completed the N1 and submitted it to the court I asked if I could sign the form on his behalf as a litigation friend, they told me this was ok.

 

Have they now got grounds to have the case struck out? or is this another delay tactic. ultimately I know its the judges decision. I was going to submit my dads AQ tomorrow the deadline is Monday, should I still submit or wait for judges decision?

 

Well I thought we were on the home straight, I take it if the judge strikes out the claim I would have to start again from the N1 stage and make sure my dad signs it.

 

Any help much appreciated.

Ok,so they've picked up on a technicality. At least it shows they're paying attention!! Basically the mistake was to sign it as a Litigation Friend, since this only applies to children or patients ie people incapable of conducting a case. Which is why they're saying there is no reason for the proposed litigation friend.

 

You should send your AQ in on time, as that is also grounds for a case to be struck out.

 

What I suggest you do is under Other Information explain the circumstances and the fact that you were advised by the court that uou could sign the N1 on your father's behalf. Explain that your father is willing to appear in person at any hearing. Enclose copy of his permission.

 

I think the worst that may happen is that the judge may direct you to serve a corrected N1 or he may well allow it.

Thanks again for reply Michael, Im not the best at putting things down on paper any chance you could give a rough guide on text to use ie my father will now sign AQ so in other info along with the other text in there "standard disclosure and not a complicated case etc" what should I put now.

Enclose copy of his permission?

 

What a ball ache, everything was going so well, nevermind hopefully the judge will allow it.

I thought he may have originally sent the bank a letter giving permission for you to act on his behalf. Obviously not. Not to worry.

 

Never done this before, so amend as you see fit:

 

The defendant has requested that my claim be struck out on the grounds that that the claim form is defective. My son, Mr XXXX, has been assisting me in my claim, and I wish him to accompany me to any hearing and allow him to be my lay representative.

 

At the time of filing my claim at XXXX County Court, he explained this to the court staff and was advised that it would be in order for him to sign the claim form on my behalf.

 

I therefore respectfully request that my claim be permitted to proceed and that my son, Mr XXX, be allowed to be my lay representative.
