ParkingEye Limited v Beavis
[2015] UKSC 67
Key Principle
Joined with Cavendish Square Holding v Makdessi at the Supreme Court. A £85 overstay charge in a free car park was not an unenforceable penalty because the landowner had a legitimate interest in maintaining the charge beyond mere compensation for loss (efficient management of the car-park space).
