After about 5 years since supposed parking incident - got a court summons. Is it fair when any valid reason is now not fresh in our minds? Can I post the documents for you to look at?
I'm pretty sure you have not received any "summons". A summons is an old term used mainly in criminal or magistrates’ courts to require someone to attend court to answer an offence. It’s the court’s way of starting a criminal case or compelling attendance.
A money claim is a civil matter, not criminal. It’s used when one person or company wants to recover money from another, such as a debt or alleged breach of contract. It usually starts in the County Court or online through Money Claim Online and can lead to a County Court Judgment (CCJ) if not defended.
In short: a summons drags you into court for an offence, a money claim invites you to defend a debt. One’s criminal, the other’s civil.
Thanks. How can I attach pictures of the document sent?
Nope. All you have done is linked to the website, not to your image.
That was just me trying to tell them how to upload instead of them actually tried to do it lol.
