BOLTON PARKING ISSUES: Yesterday in Bolton

Yesterday in Bolton

Went to Bolton on Monday regarding a parking matter and we parked in Le-Mans Crescent without buying a pay and display ticket, I was expecting a PCN when we got back because we were away for more than an hour and guess what, no parking ticket, I don't believe the council have ceased enforcement, however if they have then well done the Council but it should have happened months ago, on friday at the parking appeals in Bolton it was another good day for the appellants at least one was on an illegal disabled bay in Victoria Square South, whereupon the adjudicator Mr Stephen Knapp had no hesitation in cancelling the ticket, it justifies my allegations against the Council that all Parking Bays in Bolton are signed illegally. if you do get a parking ticket on an illegal bay you may make a complaint to the Police, they may not take you serious but stress to them that it is not their job to interpret the law but to investigate complaints.
I will continue to attend the parking appeal venue in Bolton and assist appellants with their appeals, more appellants have won their appeals with a little advice and help from yours truly.

TEMPLATE LETTERS FOR RESTITUTION OF A PAYMENT MADE IN AN ERROR IN LAW

Simple definition of restitution::::
res·ti·tu·tion (rĕs'tĭ-tū'shən, -tyū'-) n.The act of restoring to the rightful owner something that has been taken away, lost, or surrendered. .The act of making good or compensating for loss, damage, or injury; indemnification.

If you had a PCN before August 23rd 2006 you can now get you money back automatically now follow the steps below and change it to suit your details.

Dear Parking Services and Legal Services.
Having seen in the Bolton News the article regarding the win by Mr Keiller, Mr Stephen Knapp refused to go against a High court ruling and found against Bolton council insofar as Bolton Councils Penalty Charge notices are non compliant as prior to August 23rd 2006 they only had one date on the PCN, this was also ruled in the High Court Case of Barnet v Moses when Judge Jackson said It seems to me that Section 66 (3) of the 1991 Road Traffic Act requires a PCN to have two dates, A date of Issue or Notice and a date of Contravention.
Bolton's PCN's were missing the date of Contravention. I therefore ask you now to issue restitution of the Penalty Charge I paid on xx/xx/xxx to the sum of £xx.xx the PCN No is BO xxxxxx and was issued on xx/xx/xxxx for veh reg No xxx xxx I also wish to apply statutory Interest of 8% from the date I paid which is the amount the courts will allow, Sum Paid £xx.xx plus £xx.xx interest @8% Total = £xx.xx
You have 14 days from receipt of this letter/email to pay restitution, Failure to pay within this time will result in a complaint to the Local Government Ombudsman by which time the costs will increase. This letter/email will suffice for my complaint and unless you do not wish that Bolton Council ends up at the Bottom of the worst Council list compiled by the LGO I would act immediately.
Please make Cheque payable to XXXXX at the following address.
Yours Faithfully
