I'm very sorry to add another PCN case to the forum, but could not find any examples that seemed to be similar.
I have reached the popla appeal stage for a PCN received after the driver of the vehicle parked in a hospital car park and had not paid. The driver works as a doctor, was at the hospital for teaching and gets their parking ticket refunded. The driver parked in an overflow carpark as there were no spaces, but the ticket machines in this area were not working so they drove off without having paid.
Would the fact that they get their parking ticket refunded be grounds enough to be succesful in the popla appeal - on the grounds of genuine pre estimate of loss / not similar to parkingeye vs beaver case.
I would really appreciate any help the experts on this forum could provide.
