You heard it right. Perky and his CPS outfit have been defeated in an Oldham case today. The CPS claim was struck out at a preliminary hearing - it did not even get to a full hearing. The case has major impications for court enforcement of PPC tickets.

Full details will follow but for now savour the moment.

Perky stating he was an advisor for the CAB, holds no weight at all as all information given out by CAB people is totally controlled by a strict set of rules and preset information and advisors are not allowed to give any personal recomendations or advice.
The 'training is also highly simplistic
I was a CAB Advisor many moons ago but when the rules changed I left. CAB rules are now too tight and inflexible for people to add any personal ideas.

Does anyone know if CPS did file an amended Particulars of Claim after their original claim against the defendant (Stephen Thomas) was struck out. I saw Scottish Mark's post about him having seen a transcript of the proceedings but that he could not post it up as he'd been asked not to (presumably asked by CPS). One would assume that CPS got the transcript because either:-

(a) they couldn't understand why their original claim had been struck out; or,

(b) they wanted to pursue an appeal against the strike out order ... and couldn't understand why they'd been struck out

The strike out order made by the judge on 12 May 2008 seems to have been rather kind to CPS. OK, even if the order had not made express provision for them to be able to file an amended Particulars of Claim, they would still have been able to bring a fresh set of proceedings [a strike out is different to a dismissal] but they'd have had to pay another court fee. Maybe they looked so very impecunious that the judge felt sorry for them.

If they didn't file an amended Particulars of Claim (and the OP would surely know if they did) I guess that they may finally have understood why their original claim got struck out.

@WageSlave - The simple answer to the question is "yes".

The search function will lead you to other threads that discuss the outcome of the case, the alleged judgment and the need for caution in accepting at face value what the true origins of the case were.

Keep in mind that no decision of a county court is binding on any other and sets no legal precedent whatsoever - inspite of what Mr Perkins and others from PPC World continue to propound.

@Bazil - Unfortunately your request appears to have been lost amidst a discussion of the more knowledgeable (as you suggest). However, there was always the search function. Sorry if that sounds a bit trite but it would have thrown up numerous "hits". Doesn't really excuse the fact that you didn't get an answer though.
