Re: Redbridge PCN - Entering and stopping in a yellow box
junction when prohibited (camera enforcement)

The Charge Certificate will be cancelled regardless if your
father follows the process that goes with the Order for Recovery
(within the deadline).
This would lead to the PCN being reissued, and the early issuing
of the Charge Certificate would potentially be grounds to beat
the PCN, as the Council seem to have broken the law in their
pursuit of your father for this penalty.
You/father should be aware it's highly unlikely Redbridge will
acknowledge their mistake (it's come up numerous times before
with Redbridge and their parking/traffic enforcement team don't
seem to know the difference between issuing and service) so to
beat the PCN you would need to take this case all the way to the
tribunal stage.
Either way, it's worth following the process to get the Charge
Certificate cancelled to get the PCN down from £195.

I just heard from my mum about this - my dad didn't do anything
with this information. It's too much for him.... so I think
that means he's got a big fine to pay now. He's principles made
it impossible for him to pay the 2nd PCN notice, when he didn't
receive the first one, but he also struggled to complete the
process described.
I did tell him to pay it rather than leave it in the end - given
there was every likelihood that Redbridge would just issue a
fresh PCN, but he didn't do that, so I think there's a big fine
to pay now.
Thanks so much for your help with this.

OK - according to the Redbridge web portal, this PCN has now
reached Order for Recovery stage. This is the last stage of the
process before which your father loses the right to get this
fixed without paying up a significant sum and/or bailiffs
getting involved.
Please, without any delay, find out whether your parents have
received the Order for Recovery through the post and what date
it was issued. Fingers crossed they are still within time,
which would mean they could fairly straightforwardly get the
process reset and reopen the formal appeal process (or settle
for the original cost).

So - what was the date of the Order for Recovery?

Hi - I couldn't get a response out of my dad since your last
post, despite several attempts. But today he said he settled
the matter for £195 :(
So in the end he paid even more than if he had paid the 2nd
notice.
I knew he would struggle with the challenge process ... looks
like he avoided dealing with it. It must have been a third
letter that came through or the order for recovery that made him
respond and ultimately pay up.
Thanks for your help with this and for checking in again. Much
appreciated.
