DVLA Failure to notify new keeper fine court case dropped

[Raykay]

Although s.7 Interpretation Act covers documents sent by post to DVLA , the Crown Court case I mentioned just hinged on the fact that the document was not delivered to the Secretary of State for Transport.

According to the OP of that case, that is the only thing that the judge considered, apparently he didn't consider that as DVLA are an executive agency of the Department for Transport, sending it by post to them was in effect delivering it to the Secreary of State, and as it was by post, s.7 Interpretation Act applies.

Thanks Raykay... I think it depends on the gounds for appeal. I think the chap was very unlucky to get suck a judge especially as he would not consider anything else ie lost post etc.. I will keep everyone posted.

As above I sent the DVLA a letter basically stating they had no case. In October last year they replied stating I still owed them £30. I wrote back stating that I would attend any court hearing. I have not heard anything back since October last year. If your circumstances are the same as mine. Stick to your guns. Buxtongooner
