Good morning all, I have successfully had the parking charge against us dismissed as it was not send and more importantly delivered within the relevant period, the notice itself didn't satisfy POFA, the signange wasn't adequete to form a contract and the claimants had no evidence that the car was parked in a manner that would allow them to make the claim to begin with.
This being my first time defending a case in court, I was so focused on defending the case that I neglected to enquire about any claims I could make.
The ticket was issued almost two years ago and we have had letters from the debt recovery agents, their solicitors - I imagine you are all aware of the usual play book of these companies.
Due to the case being completely baseless, I wonder if I am able to claim a monetary award from them? I failed to keep receipts of postage and other things along the way. I took half a days annual leave and my Mrs took toil (I was her litigation friend / lay representative). Additionally, now that it has been to court and has been dismissed on a number of counts, did the parking management company ever have a legitimate reason to pass my details onto a debt recovery agent?
Will we receive anything back from the court regarding the outcome of the case, or can I look it up somewhere?
