No. It is the claimant (Bank park) who must pay the fee. If they
don't pay by the deadline, the case will be struck out (you
win). If they do, tell us, and you'll then need to submit a
Witness Statement by 30th June/

really long time ago.

The claimant has to pay the court fee by 26 June. If they don’t,
the case is struck out, or they will discontinue beforehand. If
they do, you need to submit a Witness Statement by 30 June. If I
were you, I’d be thinking about what I’d say in my Witness
Statement, but I wouldn’t actually write it until the court fee
has been paid and you’ve received the claimant’s Witness
Statement also. If you do nothing, you may get lucky, or you may
end up with very little time and no preparation. Your call.

Morning!
Just called the courts and they advised that there wasnt a
payment showing on the system (was due friday last week) but
that it can take time to show on there so i should prepare a
witness statement.
I have no idea what i am writing, format or any of this.
The incidents are dated from back in 2020 so i cant really
remember what happened but i know im not supposed to lie either.
Can anyone help?

Do you have a copy of the original PCN?
Has the Claimant provided you with their Witness Statement?
Did you ever appeal the original PCN?

Hello
No - dont have anything original from them.
Where would i find my witness statement from them? does it get
emailed?
Ive moved house since all this has happened so im getting all my
post redirected which adds about a week to already slow mail.
Didnt appeal the originals at the time.
Does that hurt my case?

ok - so I would quickly prepare a short Witness Statement and
submit it.
They will almost certainly discontinue.
Something short like;
1. I am the named defendant.
2. I have no recollection of the PCN which the Claimant says was
issued at the material time.
3. The Particulars of Claim are scant and provide no real clue
as to what is actually being claimed.
4. The Claimant has provided no evidence / witness statement to
me in the manner which was specified in the prior order.
5. Not withstanding the above, the Claimant has never
demonstrated that I was the vehicle driver.
6. That I cannot plead the alternative since the Notice to
Keeper was never served on me.
7. That in the absence of adequate POC, this is a skeleton
Witness Statement.
Then add all the bits mentioned in the Court Order.
Submit this by 4pm tomorrow.
The details are on page 3 and 4.

Perfect.
It was just a case of covering your arse in case the Claimant
submitted something last minute and then tried to imply that you
had screwed up.
