       I'm puzzled.At the stage you are at, (submitted reps but got no
       Notice of Rejection), the regulations state that the enforcing
       authority must pass the matter to the adjudicators for a
       decision.Is there anything about this in what you have received
       ?
       See Regulation 23(7)&(8) in The Civil Enforcement of Road
       Traffic Contraventions (Approved Devices, Charging Guidelines
       and General Provisions) (England) Regulations 2022

       It would help if we could read what you've described as "Reissue
       of letter" because the link you have labelled "FRONT" doesn't
       work.
       It might explain where you are getting new deadline dates from,
       which, incidentally, you got wrong for the original PCN so best
       we see the new letter.
       @ Incandescent.
       They appear to be following the standing 'directions', issued by
       the tribunal in 2016.

       Ah, right. So the OP now has the rejection letter and can now
       decide whether to pay-up, or register a case at London
       Tribunals.

       This would appear to be the current Practice Direction:

       Paras 10 and 11 would seem to apply:
       Re-service of Notice of Rejection after a Ground 2 [made reps
       but did not receive a NOR] Declaration
       10. The Authority may re-serve the Notice of Rejection on the
       Declarant and allow a further 28
       days to appeal. To comply with the Regulations, the Authority is
       required to refer the
       declaration to the Adjudicator under these circumstances, even
       though no action is required
       of the Adjudicator.
       11. Where the Authority has re-served a Notice of Rejection
       after a Ground 2 Declaration in line
       with the process described in the paragraph above, and the
       Declarant appeals against the re-
       served Notice of Rejection, the Authority should ensure that the
       case summary indicates
       that there had been re-service. The date of the re-service must
       be indicated in the
       verification code and the Notice of Appeal form to enable the
       Proper Officer to ascertain
       whether the appeals are made in time.
       OP, pl clarify who's who here because earlier you wrote: and
       Brent have since sent correspondence to the driver and it
       contains a copy of the NoR.
       The driver has nothing to do with this process: it is owner
       liability i.e. the registered keeper.
       So pl clarify who's who.

       So sorry for the confusion earlier; I should have been clearer.
       The “owner” and the “driver” are the same person in this case ,
       as he  is the registered keeper and was driving his own vehicle
       at the time of the alleged contravention.
       I’m not directly involved in the situation.. just helping the
       fella out.

       So the 14 days to cough up the discounted rate have passed..
       I'd like to start writing the appeal where I give reasons,
       citing:
       * Poor weather conditions and visibility.
       * Brent didn't even acknowledge my views re. visibility in the
       NoR
       * I've just found on here THIS POST no.9

       Nowhere in this thread have I seen any reference to the video,
       which is their sole evidence. Has the video been viewed at all ?
       It's normally viewable on their website by quoting PCN Number
       and car reg.
       Always remember that the contravention is entering the box and
       having to stop due to the presence of stationary vehicles. Does
       the video show this ?

       Ahhhhhh...yes, the video does show the car entering the box and
       stopping when another car was in there already. However, the
       junction box was not visible due to the poor weather conditions
       as it was daek and raining, can just about make it out on the
       VIDEO HERE.
