Story summary
  • Marie Potter, 75, seeks to reclaim her Croydon home after an April 2023 eviction tied to a dispute with Kirsten McGowan over a parked car.
  • The 1998 dispute led to a 2020 court ruling ordering Potter to pay £70,000.
  • Potter contends the sale order is invalid because third-party charges exceed £30,000 and because she seeks more than £250,000 in losses.
  • The judge has reserved his ruling on this issue.
