Katie Price done for driving while disqualified. Her excuse, she was "not the best" at paperwork.

But the article concludes with "She arrived at the Court accompanied by two minders and an adviser".

Some minding !! Some advice !!

Perhaps I should have put this in Jokes
It is a joke isn't it... I got banned from driving, so when it ran out i just got behind the wheel..

What an idiot.

Everyone knows after a ban you need to re-apply like a new driver.
//Price had mistakenly believed the earlier ban had been imposed at a hearing in January - meaning it would have ended in early July, before she got behind the wheel.//

If the ban wasn't imposed at that hearing, when was it imposed? How many hearings has she attended?
Not surprised if this is her current adviser?

It's (mildly) interesting to note that she appears not to carry debit and/or credit cards. (Perhaps she thinks that she's 'modern royalty', with no need to carry any form of money?). Courts accept card payments for fines but she was unable to pay before leaving the court. Odd.
Perhaps these luvvies with over inflated egos thing they are a fair target for muggers.
I don't suppose many pay up before they leave court, do they?
She narrowly avoided bankruptcy in December so not sure how this makes her 'the other half'.
Hmmm, Retrocop.

I reckon that the card in my pocket are reasonably secure - and that's without having two burly great minders to help keep them out of the hands of muggers!

;-)
>>> I don't suppose many pay up before they leave court, do they?

At our local Magistrates' court there's a dedicated phone that people can pick up in order to speak to the payments centre and pay their fines. There's nearly always a big queue of people waiting to use it.
Katie Price - who she - what is she 'famous' for - does she swim with sharks or something ?
Buenchico, oh really? That surprises me.
She ought to Bazile......hungry ones!!
Most of the miscreants at Marylebone and Well St Mag Court last words to Magistrate was, “time to pay please” or worse.
:-)
“Everyone knows after a ban you need to re-apply like a new driver.”

Then everyone is wrong. However, I suspect that most people know the correct position which is this:

If you are banned for 56 days or more you have to apply for a new licence. However you do not have to apply “like a new driver” in that you do not have to pass your test again. You are simply issued with a new full licence.

If you are banned for less than 56 days you do not have to surrender your licence at all. It is simply suspended for the period of your ban and becomes valid again when your ban has expired.

“Courts accept card payments for fines but she was unable to pay before leaving the court.”

Magistrates’ Courts no longer have facilities to take payments now, ‘Chico. All part of “streamlining” the service you understand. Instead defendants are issued with an “account number” and have to make payments either online, over the phone or at designated banks. For this reason they are normally given a minimum of seven days to ensure their payments get through the system. The dedicated phone line you mention is an unusual facility.

Katie Price is a very shrewd and clever woman who knows and plays the fame game inside out.

A pre-requiste of being famous for being famous (i.e. you have no particular talent, you just 'are' and people spend money on you) is that you must have attention paid to you as much and as often as possible.

To arrive at the court alone, as most people would do, would run the risk of being ignored. However, turn up with two burly minders, and an 'advisor' and paparazzi attention is assured - job done.

It's just Ms. Price doing what she does best, and she is very very good at it.
yep naomi, I paid mine at the court straight away.
New Judge, loving your work.
No names, no packdrill, just drop da mic. :-)
"Katie Price - who she - what is she 'famous' for - does she swim with sharks or something?"

She's famous for being a model years ago called Jordan who got her tits out and, errr, that's about it.

Save for the above she has no discernible talent (if the above can be described as a talent), but unfathomably has managed to earn shed loads of money over the years, although this appears to be coming to an end given her recent financial woes.

The only thing that surprises me about Jordan is that she hasn't done porn - although as her looks (such as they are) and celebrity wane, and the money dries up even more, I suspect this is only a matter of time.
"Katie Price is a very shrewd and clever woman who knows and plays the fame game inside out. "

Not sure "Jordan" is what I would class as clever or shrewd. She does however know how to play the system.

The Courts should have stopped this panto mine and done her for contempt if you ask me.
