What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Colorado
I recently received a letter stating that I owe $350 ($150 in tickets, $200 in interest charges) in parking tickets allegedly occurring from 1999-2004. I have never seen anything about these tickets and never received any communication regarding them until about a month ago. Apparently the state recently upgraded its IT systems and is sending these letters out to hundreds of people.
I called an asked for validation of the debt and was sent screenshots showing the ticket information. I requested copies of the tickets but was not provided actual copies. Further, the information fields in the screen shot include a place to record a Location and a Meter Number. These fields are blank.
My question is: what would be the best way to contest these tickets? Does the fact that they do not have copies of the original tickets and the information they have does not include a location or a meter number help my case?
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
