Contesting a Parking Ticket in Glendale
According to the California Vehicle Code, there are guidelines that you need to abide by when contesting parking citations. The process consists of three steps, as follows:
- Administrative review – You have 21 days since the date of citation was issued or 14 days from the mailing of the notice of parking violation to submit a request for review.
- Administrative hearing – You have 21 days from the mailing of the results of the administrative review to file for an administrative hearing. If your citation in level 1 was maintained, you may proceed with an administrative hearing. You are required to submit the payment owed on the citation before proceeding to the hearing.
- Court appeal – If the citation in level 2 remains, you have 30 days from the mailing of the Administrative Hearing officer’s findings to file for a court appeal. In this step, a filing fee of $25 will apply and you also need to obtain a Notice of Appeal form from the court. If the presiding judge ruled in your favor, the $25 filing fee and the parking fine will be refunded.
How to Stop Tickets From Affecting Insurance
If you get a parking citation, it is recommended to handle the issue as soon as possible. If you try to elude the situation or ignore the fines, it could get more expensive and affect your ability to apply for insurance or buy a car in the future. To avoid having your parking tickets affect your insurance rates, we recommend the following:
- If you feel that the ticket was a mistake, send a letter to the authorities immediately with an explanation of why the ticket is wrong. Include a copy of the ticket, your contact information, and any supporting evidence.
- If you are not able to pay the total amount right away, you can ask the officers about a payment plan or other arrangements. The authorities may be able to delay additional late fees so you can catch up on the payment.
- Ask family and friends to lend you the money or your boss for an advance payment so you can pay off the ticket. This way you can avoid late fees and other additional penalties.
