       OK, fine, but the regulars on here are all volunteers and give
       their time freely.
       If nobody posts and you're getting near the deadline, just
       submit it. It reads well enough, but it will be rejected
       whatever its content. Thats how councils ruthlessly game the
       system - refuse reps, re-offer discount, and watch the money
       flow in. Most people, (like about 95%) just cough-up being
       scared of the adjudicators, and also the doubling of their
       financial risk. Cash from PCN penalties even with most paid at
       the discounted rate net London councils and TfL over £600
       million a year; a Nice Little Earner.

       Honestly I really appreciate the stuff that you guys do, sorry
       if it came off as me being ungrateful, i just got a bit nervous
       because of the impending deadline and I really don't fight these
       things often!

       what should I do now? Also, it’s the 6th June now so I’ve passed
       the 4th June deadline anyway?

       That's fine which is why it is showing £160 in that case. But I
       advise putting mine in as a supplementary and/or retracting the
       other one.
       Been busy with big fish and heat sorry. Like a Pre action
       protocol letter to RBK.

       I have sent you a PM and seriously suggest you let me personally
       take care of this for you.
       2250205130  They failed to attend which they MUST.
       At this scheduled personal hearing the Appellant was represented
       by Mr Morgan, who appeared in person via MS Teams.
       The Enforcement Authority did not attend and was not
       represented, either in vision, by telephone, or in person.
       ....................
       I note that the Enforcement Authority has produced a witness
       statement from its authorised officer but Paragraph 7(6) of
       Schedule 1 to the 1996 Act provides that nothing in
       sub-paragraph (1) or (4) [Admissibility of certain evidence]
       above makes a document admissible as evidence in proceedings
       under paragraph 6 above unless a copy of it has not less than 7
       days before the hearing, been served on the appellant; and
       nothing in those paragraphs makes a document admissible as
       evidence of anything other than the matters shown on a record
       produced by a prescribed device if that person, not less than
       three days before the hearing or within such further time as the
       traffic adjudicator may in special circumstances allow, serves a
       notice on the council requiring attendance at the hearing or
       trial of the person who signed the document.
       The Appellant’s representative served notice within the
       prescribed time for the attendance of the named officer, but
       they have not attended.
       Therefore, I cannot find as facet that on this occasion a
       contravention did occur.
       Accordingly, this appeal must be allowed.

       Thank you, received your PM, sorry for the radio silence, I have
       been moving houses so been busy with that. So the council came
       back to me, this is their response

       I am still going to fight it. I THINK that today is the deadline
       as their response was dated 2nd july. I will wait until the end
       of the day before probably using your response in the appeal
       (unless you suggest anything otherwise before the end of the day
       - of course the delay is my fault for not checking my emails so
       if you don;t have a chance to respond in time, completely
       understand and completely my fault!)
       Thank you all again!
