       Judgement Issued For NPC PCN Can The Claim be disputed to set
       aside?
   DIR By: jeezy

       National Parking Control issued PCN which is being sent to RK
       This is one of many received, and many have replied to state
       that the vehicle driver is not the RK and provided details.
       I believed this one to have been the same as in they received
       the form stating the driver is someone else as did not see
       anything else relating to this PCN come in until the Claim form
       was received.
       I just got back from holiday this week, working out the dates
       looks like past the 14 days, so have checked to see judgment
       served on 25th October
       Attached is the front page of the claim form. I wanted to ask :
       -would there be any grounds to appeal and thus should go for the
       set aside
       -if the above is not likely, if amount claimed is paid, would
       the CCJ still show up or is it possible to ensure it doesn't
       stick?
       Thank you

       Can you evidence that you were away between the date of issue of
       the Claim and the deadline for submitting the Acknowledgement of
       Service (AoS)? With an issue date of 2nd October, you had until
       Monday 21st October to submit the AoS which would then have
       given you until 4pm on Monday 4th November.
       Simply telling us you "just got back from your holiday this
       week" doesn't give enough detail. The claim form will have been
       deemed served by Monday 7th October. What date were you away
       from?
       What date did you actually get back? Was it after 25th October?
       If you could have done so, even if past the deadline for AoS,
       have submitted it up to the 25th October.
       So, dates please.
       If you want to apply for a set aside, you will have to do so
       under CPR 13.3. The claimant has not erred in applying for the
       CCJ in default. A set aside application under CPR 13.3 is a
       discretionary set aside. If you can prove you were not aware of
       the claim because you were away, your application should be
       under CPR 13.3(a) and 13.3(b)(ii).
       If you were to pay the judgment amount in full before 22nd
       November, it would be expunged and you would not have a CCJ on
       your credit record for the next 6 years.
       So, two choices really. Apply for a set aside, especially if you
       can evidence you were unable to Acknowledge service before the
       default CCJ or pay it and that will be the end of it.

       Thank you for taking the time to explain it especially with the
       payment option as that was not clear. A set aside would mean a
       court fee payment regardless approx £300?

       £303 for a set aside without consent from the claimant. If you
       can persuade them to agree to a set aside and you cover the fee
       it is £109.
       If you can evidence that you were out of the country or away
       between the date the claim was deemed served and the date of the
       CCJ (7th-25th October), then you can inform the claimant that
       you intend to apply for a set aside. If they don't agree, then
       you will request that costs are reserved if the claim is allowed
       to be re-issued after the set aside.
       If you can evidence that you were away between those dates, here
       is a suggested letter to DCB Legal:

       It would be worthwhile seeing if they come back with a suggested

       I've just spotted the possible only benefit of the B word, your
       passport will be stamped upon exit and entry to the UK. Oh, the
       other benefit is if you get a speeding ticket abroad there's not
       much they can do about it unless you are stopped by the feds at
       the time. :)

       This is one of many received, and many have replied to state
       that the vehicle driver is not the RK and provided details.
       And was the NTK passed to the driver and has the driver admitted
       driving and been contacted by the creditor etc. etc? Is the RK a
       person or a company, perhaps a vehicle hire company?

       The OP hasn't even bothered to answer the question about whether
       they were actually away between the applicable dates. Unless
       they can answer that, I won't be bothering wasting any more time
       on this. If they don't want a world of financial pain for the
       next 6 years, they can simply pay the CCJ by the 28 day deadline
       and be done with it.

       Jeezy, please ensure you answer any questions that are asked. If
       a question is asked, it is because an answer is needed to
       provide sound advice.
       The quality of output is dependent on the quality of your input.

       Thank you all for the input and duly noted on providing enough
       substance for you all to then go and give relevant advice.
       The RK ended up paying for it in this instance given the time
       constraints and not being able to go back and find the evidence
       to prove they provided driver details for this particular PCN
       (they have for the others)
       In relation to court being satisfied what is the best way to do
       this and ask them to cancel entry, N433 is for an actual
       certificate rather than confirmation for it to be cancelled,
       should they be emailed with the claim No?
       Thank you
