I recently received a court summons in relation to getting caught without a tv license at the beginning of last October, with the court date this week.
This summons contained three pages, form 2 (summons to defendant to answer complaint), form 88 (Notice by complainant of intention to tender written statement at summary trial) and a copy of the interview with the TV licenser.
However the copy of the interview is not mine, but for someone with the same surname and a similar forename. Is it possible this summons is a mistake as I have paid my TV license a couple of days after the licenser called round?
I have also heard that they can only prosecute within 6 months of being caught, if this is the case would the wrong copy of the interview hold the process up a few weeks to take the time over 6 months?
Would really appreciate some help, tried the Citizens advice bereau who weren't much help ( in the end they suggested I googled it). Not sure if im just clutching at straws here
