I got a citation tonight for parking in a disabled spot, violation code CVC 22507.8 in California. I plan on fighting it if I have a strong case.
The parking lot I parked in just recently changed owners or something. Whatever it is, they no longer have pay meters and they stopped paying their electricity bill so the lights are off at night time.
I parked in a handicapped stall thinking it wouldn't matter anymore since there is no evident owner to give me a ticket. After doing some research tonight I realized that the city still can give out tickets.
Is there ANY possibility to appeal this?
I'm a student and I can't afford a $440 fine. Is it even possible to write to the city and ask to put in hours instead of money??
Appreciate any help I get here.
