Common reasons for ticket disputes

Appearing at a hearing

Normally, the registered owner of a vehicle disputes their own parking ticket. However, an eligible representative can also dispute a parking ticket on the owner’s behalf.

If you have received a ticket on a rental car, you are responsible for the ticket and may have a hearing as the operator of the car.
