    • Nick Wallis has written up the first day of Angela van den Bogerd's evidence to the inquiry. I thought she was awful. She's decided to go with being not bright enough to spot what was happening over Fujitsu altering entries on the Horizon system, rather than covering up important facts. She's there today as well.

    • Thank-you dx, What you have written is certainly helpful to my understanding. The only thing I would say, what I found to be most worrying and led me to start this discussion is, I believe the judge did not merely admonish the defendant in the case in question, but used that point to dismiss the case in the claimants favour. To me, and I don't have your experience or knowledge, that is somewhat troubling. Again, the caveat being that we don't know exactly what went on but I think we can infer the reason for the judgement. Thank-you for your feedback. EDIT: I guess that the case I refer to is only one case and it may never happen again and the strategy not to appeal is still the best strategy even in this event, but I really did find the outcome of that case, not only extremely annoying but also worrying. Let's hope other judges are not quite so narrow minded and don't get fixated on one particular issue as FTMDave alluded to.

    • the claimant in their WS can refer to whatever previous CC judgements they like, as we do in our WS's, but CC judgements do not set a legal precedence. however, they do often refer to judgements like Bevis, those cases do created a precedence as they were court of appeal rulings. as for if the defendant, prior to the raising of a claim, dobbed themselves in as the driver in writing during any appeal to the PPC, i don't think we've seen one case whereby the claimant referred to such in their WS.. ?? but they certainly typically include said appeal letters in their exhibits. i certainly dont think it's a good idea to 'remind' them of such at the defence stage, even if the defendant did admit such in a written appeal. i would further go as far to say, that could be even more damaging to the whole case than a judge admonishing a defendant for not appealing to the PPC in the 1st place. it sort of blows the defendant out the water before the judge reads anything else. dx  
    • Hi LFI, Your knowledge in this area is greater than I could possibly hope to have and as such I appreciate your feedback. I'm not sure that I agree the reason why a barrister would say that, only to get new customers, I'm sure he must have had professional experience in this area that qualifies him to make that point. 🙂 In your point 1 you mention: 1] there is a real danger that some part of the appeal will point out that the person appealing [the keeper ] is also the driver. I understand the point you are making but I was referring to when the keeper is also the driver and admits it later and only in this circumstance, but I understand what you are saying. I take on board the issues you raise in point 2. Is it possible that a PPC (claimant) could refer back to the case above as proof that the motorist should have appealed, like they refer back to other cases? Thanks once again for the feedback.

    • 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.

Thanks all for your input, help might be at hand I have spoken to my insurers with whom I have legal insurance cover with.

 

Told them that the neighbour had visited the offices of one of the courier companies and signed a declaration stating that he had parking rights on my property, the courier company advised me of this, and they are sending me a claim form.

 

So hopefully this might see the end of the problem.

 

Although after seven years of this sort of behaviour he will most probably try something else.

If his declaration with these courier Co.’s contravenes thecovenvenants affecting the land upon which his property is situate, then suchdeclaration is not valid. Request a copy of this declaration made by yourneighbour from these third party couriers Co’s by way of voluntary disclosureand state that if they are not willing to comply then you will make anapplication to the Court under CPR Pt. 31.17 for the same and seek your costs againstthem if such action should become necessary, which you sincerely hope will not.

Further, if he is indeed operating a professional business/providinga professional service as providedunder the prescribed the language of thecovenants from his residential premises,(if any such provision is made thereunder), then you cannot challengethe same.

If no such provisions are imposed under the covenants, thenyou have the law fully on your side, not only under the enforceable covenants,to which your neighbour’s (and indeed all residents upon this land) conscience is bound, but also under the enforcement powers of yourlocal authority, which would require an application for such business use ofany such residential property and of course their written approval of such.

Keep us informed and use the law to protect your householdfrom this nuisance, slowly does it, but you will prevail and succeed. Please do not breach the harassment noticeserved upon you by the inept police.

Kind regards

Strange that since neighbours claim to the police there has not been one courier van on my property, which is nearly two weeks.

Strongly suspect that somebody might have told him the trouble he could be in with his false claims.

Thats promising, most of the time the police don't take sides and they may have also had stern words with him.

 

If thats the case and things improve, then although its hard, I would be inclined to slowly make the peace, just start with greeting him good morning etc.

 

I appreciate he's in the wrong, but you can be the bigger man and at least try, even accepting a parcel if he's out. In the end he will probably start thinking you aren't as bad as He thought and you will get on.

 

I hope it all turns out, life is bad enough with out all the troubles we cause ourselves .

 

You can still smile and know inside that he's a tos~~er just don't remind him.

Smokejumper I don't think it is case of the police taking sides, its more like covering their own backs.

 

Sadly things have been so bad over the last seven years there is no way I could entertain any contact at all with this man.

 

The tone of my posts have given the wrong impression I am a female, a fact I think this man relied on when he started all this trouble, not expecting me to come back at him.

 

regards

The tone of your posts have most certainly not given out any adverse impression as regards your character/persona my dear fellow. It is my considered opinion that your posts here have shown that you have been wronged by another over a long period of time and that you are no longer willing to suffer such and that the wrongdoer (your neighbour - for want of a better word, I know, a person who happens to live in the same street as you) has contacted the police in the light of your rightful and lawful protest against him and that he has held the police under the impression that it is the case that he is the victim in this matter!

 

Hold out, for all the help you need is right here on CAG.

 

Kind regards

I'm sorry you think it's to late to try and live with this man peacefully.

 

I've lived in a place where the neighbours annoyed me and it does take over your life, but then I am a recluse and avoid as much social contact as I can ( I get upset and sort things out my way and get into trouble).

 

Also sorry to think you were a man, obviously my sexist side showed me up, I am impressed with your strength and spirit.

Big courier can parked on and blocking my drive, delivering to neighbour.

 

Sent e mail to courier company saying I would bring an action for trespass if they came onto my property again.

 

E mailed the police told them what I had done and said I assumed they would now get proof from my neighbour of his rights before they came to arrest me.

 

Let you know what happens

Just had a nice visit from neighbours father threatening me with violence because two years ago, after he and his wife were shouting abuse in front of my cctv, I called him a poisoned dwarf.

Called the police who say they can do nothing because 1 he will deny it and 2 he never touched me.

Waiting to hear from my solicitors.

Still contacting anybody parking on my property threatening them with an action for trespass if they park on my property again.

Copies of any contacts I have made have been sent to the police.

I would be surprised if they cant do anything based on their knowledge of this long standing dispute.

 

If you've made a complaint because you felt in fear for your safety, I would have thought they are obliged to investigate. it would be worth a follow up call requesting an explanation of what action they have taken.

 

You should not have to endure threats of violence or intimidation from your neighbours friends , family or associates, especially if you were on your own property going about your own business at the time.

 

The Protection from Harassment Act is intended to provide protection to harassed individuals such as yourself in such instances.

 

Keep your spirits up.

This is harassment!! - the police are failing you! Given the information posted here thus far, there should be a record on police files regarding the same!

 

You need to invoke the covenants by way of injunction through County Court relying upon the same and your neighbour's continued breach of the same, further, you need to make the Court aware of your calls to the police against this neighbour's actions and further report to the Court that you consider his actions to be a wrong committed against you under the tort Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress. The fact that your neighbour's actions have taken place over a protracted period of time in contravention of the covenants, the Haraasment Act 1997 and the English tort of Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress now require an injunction to be Ordered against him to refrain from obstructing your private rights of access over your land at any time which he is continuing to disregard.

 

You must take legal civil action now!

 

Kind regards

Thanks for your responses, I have an appointment with my solicitor on 26 September and intend to apply for an injunction.

I am waiting for the police to call me back re their visit to neighbours father.

 

Good stuff,

 

You have the legally binding covenants, the Harassment Act 1997 and the English Tort Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress all on your side. Stand firm on the same!

 

Kind regards

Something to lighten your mood, a little bit of humour for you as this reminded me of a joke.( not saying your situation is in anyway a joke).

 

A man hears a noise in his garden and looks outside to see two burglars breaking into his shed.

 

The man rings the police and tells them if they come round now, they will catch the burglars in the act, the police say they are too busy at the moment , short staffed and will send someone round when they can.

 

The burglars remain and are emptying his shed into a van, this is going on for a few hours and the man has rang the police three times and gets the same story.

 

The man then rings the police again and tells them that they don't need to hurry any more as the man has shot the burglars.

 

Within 2 mins 6 police cars, a van full of police officers and a helicopter arrive.

 

The burglars are still emptying the shed and a senior police officer say's to the man " I thought you said you had shot them" and in return the man say's " I thought you said you were short staffed and couldn't send any one round"

 

Boom, Boom ;-)
