Back in September I took a journey from Barnehurst to Dartford on south eastern trains,I touched in with my oyster.when I got off at dartford there was no Oyster card reader!i was informed by ticket staff that dartford is outside of oyster region & I had to pay a £20 fine.i had no money so was unable to pay it.i was then interviewed by a ticket enforcement officer.i received a letter in the post approx 2 months ago from south eastern asking for my version of the events,I said that I was interviewed by one of your officers at the time for almost an hour!So I replied with a brief over view of the event!
Today I received a court summons for a breech of railway bylaw 18!
What can I do?
Should I go not guilty?
Can I settle out of court ?
Will I get I criminal record if found guilty?
Any advice would be much appreciated
