Appeal rejected - see letter attached.

Presumably we appeal again? Their reasoning seems rogue?

No offer of discount, so it is now a total no-brainer to take them to London Tribunals.

I'll drop you a PM in case you'd like me to represent you.
I practice law in the Traffic Penalty Tribunal, London Tribunals, the First-tier tribunal for Scotland, and the Traffic Penalty Tribunal for Northern Ireland, but I am not a solicitor or a barrister. Notwithstanding this, I voluntarily apply the cab rank rule. I am a member of the Society of Professional McKenzie Friends, my membership number is FM193 and I abide by the SPMF service standards.

Ok yes. So do I need to embellish my original appeal?

Well no, you'd want to pursue the arguments made in Ivan Bachkov v London Borough of Newham (2250079444, 20 June 2025) and if you want to represent yourself I can send you the screenshot evidence for that.

IMO, yours is an appeal on statutory grounds, namely that the 'contravention did not occur' because display of a P&D ticket, in fact display of anything, is optional and therefore it is axiomatic that non-display cannot give rise to the cited contravention.

True, but two grounds are better than one.
