My partner has recieved a notice of enforcement stating that a liability order has been made against him for unpaid PCN. I would have been the driver of the vehicle not him AND he did not recieve a notice to owner...
The letter from the Bailiffs has his surname spelt incorrectly (does that mean it is not valid?)
They have given us until 19th July to pay.. do you have any advice please?

Re: NOTICE OF ENFORCEMENT FOR PCN (REGISTERED KEEPER WAS NOT DRIVER)
Liability orders are used for the enforcement of unpaid council tax.
I expect this is a warrant of control, issued under CPR75 for the non-payment of a traffic debt.
That indicates the address for the registered vehicle is wrong.I would have been the driver of the vehicle not him AND he did not recieve a notice to owner...
No. but if the ADDRESS is wrong then its invalid.The letter from the Bailiffs has his surname spelt incorrectly (does that mean it is not valid?)

The keeper of the car must make a late appeal on the grounds he did not receive a Notice to Owner (NTO), and see if the wrong name resulted in non-receipt of the NTO.
Here is how to appeal a PCN:

I don't think the appeal will succeed with just a wrong name, but if you can show the address is wrong and support it with evidence.

The address for the registered vehicle is correct but we never recieved a NTO. I've found the form we need to complete to state the NTO wasn't recieved (although I imagine they will just argue that if the right address was on it then its deemed recieved so long as it leaves them correctly?)
Either way - by sending those forms and letting them know the NTO wasn't recieved does that stop the Bailiffs having any power? I checked the letter again and it definitely states a liability order has been made within the letter titled 'notice of enforcement'.
Once we contact the TEC with the form do we get the chance to appeal the original PCN or if they decide no error was made on their part (i.e with the address) does that mean it goes back to bailiffs?
Thank you

The court will follow section 7 of the Interpretation Act 1978, and that doesn't come out in your favour, I'm afraid.Lh2017 wrote: ↑15 Jul 2017 07:57The address for the registered vehicle is correct but we never recieved a NTO.

It only suspends the enforcement power. Paragraph 8.1 of Practice Direction 75.
The bailiff company might be using council tax template letters.I checked the letter again and it definitely states a liability order has been made within the letter titled 'notice of enforcement'.
The TEC can either stop enforcement or remove the suspension of enforcement - which means it continues where it left off.Once we contact the TEC with the form do we get the chance to appeal the original PCN or if they decide no error was made on their part (i.e with the address) does that mean it goes back to bailiffs?
You MUST show the address is wrong.
