Discussion
in a pickle need some pics of the emergency release system from the owners handbook, can anyone on here help me with this? I'm in court over a ticket that was issued and baliff took the car whilst i was in the statutory out of time declaration process, hence the handbook is in there.
please email and don't post on here.
many thanks

Entry details aside, I'm confused, they've impounded your car for a fine, I assume parking fine
. It seems a bit out of balance to any fine value
...... You sir owe us £200, your £12,000 car will do nicely
isn't there a law against that sort of thing.
Or is it something completely different

I'm no expert (by a very long way) but baliffs are licensed by courts and have to stick to very strict rules as to what they can and can't do, if they step out of line then they are answerable to a judge.
A very old piece of law is still on the statute books from the 11h century, Statute of Marlborough, this offers you protection from baliffs. One aspect of it is if the seizure was not on your property or on the highway directly in front of your property they cannot take it as I read it. If they have I think they may have committed an offence.
Tis a very difficult and specialist area, but like PH for motors there are sites where you could get the right/better advice check this one out, worth a punt http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/baliffs...
