legal advice?

i paid a fine of £400 five and a half years ago.... and all of a sudden 2 months ago i got a letter summoning me to court for non -payment. obviously im not very happy... who on earth keeps recipts from near 6 years ago???? so they took me to court. i argue... and they make me pay it again.! on the spot or they will double it! are they allowed to do this? dont i have any rights here? now they phoned me today and said i have to go back in a month as i may have to pay court costs aswell! im at a loose end... i either pay money for this... or risk paying more for a solicitor! anyone have any advice?

1. You need the proof you paid it for 7 years unless the statue has ran out on it ask a lawery
2. ...The Clerk of the Court is the keeper of the records... get an appointment with the Clerk and see if you can't research the old records... it might help...
