    • Should this to be take into court with him or should he send something in earlier?
    • 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.

    • 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.

Wow, this thread has been busy!

 

So from reading some of the threads in PPC successes, I'm getting a better idea now, just keep it simple.

 

1.  It is denied that the driver of the vehicle entered into any contract with the claimant on the day in question.

 

2.  It is further denied that any contract exists between the defendant and the claimant.

 

3.  The signage at the site is forbidding and inadequate to constitute an offer of a contract.

 

4.  The claimant has no locus standi to make a claim in their own name.

 

Something like that?

 

I've submitted the AOS now and sent the CPR request to the solicitors, what's the deadline for submitting a defence?

Yes, you're right, less is more at this stage.  For example, your "It is further denied that any contract exists between the defendant and the claimant" can cover a multitude of reasons - no locus standi, them suing the wrong person, them not respecting POFA, the signage being carp, no planning permission, etc., all reasons that would prevent a contract being formed. 

 

I would be tempted to swap (1) and (2) around, as really the court is interested in the dispute between the claimant and the defendant, and I would cut out (3) and (4) because they are covered by (2).  So

 

1.  It is denied that any contract was entered into between the Defendant and the Claimant.

 

2.  It is denied that the driver of the vehicle broke any contract with the claimant on the day in question.

 

3. The Particulars of Claim is denied in its entirety. It is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief at all.

 

However, you have yonks yet to submit a defence, hang on and see what the other regulars think, I'm not an expert with defences!

We could do with some help from you.

Yes, if the fleecers are stupid enough to proceed, at some point the court will tell both parties to produce a Witness Statement.  That is the time to flesh out all your points and chuck in the kitchen sink.

 

For instance, look at a recent example, the attachment in post 58 at

 

https://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/topic/422971-excel-anpr-windscreen-pcn-claimform-brewery-st-car-park-chesterfield-on-0207-2018-claim-dismissed/page/3/#comments

 

Your case is quite different, so I'm not suggesting to copy this example, but it is an example of an excellent Witness Statement and the OP went on to hammer the charlatans.

 

Off topic, but Cardiff is a damn nice city.  I've only been there once, I went with my young son a few years back for a Cardiff City v Sunderland.  We were rubbish and went 2-0 down, but somehow scored two goals at the death and got a point.  We kipped over and made a weekend of it and went to the Doctor Who Exhibition the next day.  Everyone, including your fans, were really friendly & helpful.  We passed the Tourist Information Office on the Sunday morning, I tried the door, found it closed, realised I'd got there before opening hours, saw a staff member wandering over, I apologised profusely for trying the door without reading the sign, but was told to come in anyway even though it wasn't officially open!

You have pretty much got a slam dunk case but with the Judge lottery it is as well to have many irons in the fire. So as youhave founfd problems with their PVN could you please answer the following as well as posting the front and back of the PCN/NTK.

 

 Have you received a Parking Ticket?

Cheers again Dave.  I'll pencil that in for now but I won't submit yet in case anyone else has anything they think should be included.

 

Part of me suspects that they're using this as a last ditch attempt to put the frighteners on me into paying up, and once they receive a properly worded defence and realise I'm prepared to push back they'll bottle it and back out.  I'm sure there's some kind of law against using the courts system as an intimidation method but these PPCs seem to know how to play the game.

 

That's Cardiff City for you, snatching a draw from the jaws of victory.  Seems to be the motto for our current season so far.  Glad you had a good time when you were here though.  If you come back any time soon let me know, there'll be a beer on me waiting, Covid permitting.

Hi all.

 

As the deadline is approaching now, I'd like to get my defence in by the end of the week in case anything unexpected crops up. 

 

If nobody has anything to add I'm going to go with the defence that Dave posted in post #32.

 

Cheers

Hi again all.

 

Just a quick update as I've been really busy the last 6 weeks or so.  I submitted the short defence on 8th February, just before the deadline and I had confirmation from the court that it had been received.

 

They advised that the other side had 28 days from the date of the letter to respond, which by my reckoning came and went this week.  I haven't heard any more and there's no new updates to the case if I log in to the MCOL page.  I'm guessing if they don't respond by the deadline then the case gets chucked out?

 

I also haven't had any response or anything from the CPR letter that I sent to the solicitors back on the 12th of January.  Do they normally have to respond to this within a set timeframe?

 

Thanks

no it gets autostayed as the court letter tells you..

 

as there is no MCOL update regarding the claimant filing their DQ N180 then i suspect the above is true ( which doesn't show on MCOL)

 

if so it will cost the claimant £255 via an N244 to lift the stay now, they don't usually bother.

however do not move without informing the court and the claimant within 6yrs.

Thanks DX.  That's pretty much what I figured was going to happen.  £255 is more than the cost of the claim and I've read that they can't claim that back under costs even if they won the case later.

 

I haven't heard anything from the court.  I'd assume that if I had then that'd mean they'd filled in the necessary stuff and were proceeding, but I haven't so I presumed the PPC had bottled it.

 

The only thing I have had is a letter from the PPC's solicitors arrive on Saturday, dated 9th March, it just quotes the case reference number and says "We act for the claimant in the above matter.  Please note our intention to proceed with this claim".

 

However by my reckoning they're timed out.  I've tried ringing the court but struggling to get through.

 

Cheers

So I've received the N180.  Am I right in thinking that;

 

  • I don't agree to mediation (since I don't owe them squat).
  • I agree that this needs to be allocated to the small claims track.
  • I want this transferred to my local county court.
  • I'm not looking to produce any "expert" evidence or any witnesses in person (although I do have a written witness statement I want to submit).
  • I also don't believe I need to fill in the EX370 form for mediation since I don't agree to this.

Also it says that I must complete the directions questionnaire and file it with the court by 31st March, and serve copies to the other parties.  Does that mean I need to send a copy of this to the claimant and their solicitors, or does the court do that?

 

Thanks
