Received a Formal rejection letter to my representation.

Please, I need help in appealing to an independent adjudicator at the Traffic Penalty Tribunal.

Never done this before.  I don't know the process; what is involved or what to expect.

Thanks

Why the heavy redaction.

cp's earlier reference to 'failure to consider' needs to be tested against their reasoning....but there is no reasoning, just a defective decision.

Never underestimate the systemic stupidity of councils!

No offer of the discount means it is now a total and absolute no-brainer to take them to London Tribunals because the penalty remains the same and there are no additional costs. Even if you lost, you have at least made them do some work for their ill-gotten gains, and also they will have had to pay £30 to the adjudicators.

Can you un-redact everything except name and address, please. This is not a murder trial !

Indeed, and even if it were a murder trial you wouldn't want to withhold that amount of information from your legal advisers.

Aside from the name and address, there is no need to redact anything else.

Sorry, what I uploaded yesterday only, removed my details.

Imgur must have done that heavy redacting.

I have tried several times to upload it again and I keep on having the same heavy redacting on the first page.
I don't know why. 
I will have to try again later or just copy and paste the top bit redacted in a word document.

I have uploaded other letters its never done this.

I might have accidentally pressed an option when I was having difficulties uploading the letter that did that. The uploading page froze several times.

Sadly, whoever compiled your rejection has not been let loose just on you but must deal with scores of representations.

Their reasoning is so bad that it brings local government into disrepute.

Register appeal.

I rely upon my formal representations would do for the moment.

Elect for a personal hearing(it would be done by video link).

Well the rejection seems like a pile of nonsense to me, and one thing I would want to deal with in the notice of appeal is what Parking Services are required to do. They say "Parking Services are required to enforce all parking regulations", this begs the question of who is requiring them to do this? It sounds like an unlawful fettering of discretion to me.

Anyway I would not advise a DIY appeal and I will PM you in case you'd like me to represent you.

@ HC Andersen, Please can you confirm which of these appeals/representation you are suggesting that I register with the TPT. Or should I use both or a combination?


Thanks

I already posted that you should at this stage register your appeal and rely upon your formal reps i.e. the contravention did not occur.

Don't overthink or overcomplicate this. It is not the Scopes trial, it is a local authority misapplying the law while they remain judges in their own cause.

But now they're not, and someone who has a reasonable level of legal training will address their minds to the issue, IMO in your favour.

Their latest response date is triggered by your hearing date..

...which is? 

If you did not request a personal hearing (I believe telephone or video) then pl do so.
