What is the name of your state? MO

What type of penalties--civil or criminal--would I incur for non-payment of a city of Chicago parking ticket? I was there as a tourist, and I am extremely unlikely to ever be back in the Chicago area with a vehicle. (I'm also hacked off by the fact I went to move my car at 3:50 PM according to several different time sources, and found a ticket for illegal parking from 4-6 PM time dated 4:10 PM, but figure trying to fight it is impossible.)

Worst case scenario, what will happen? Thanks!

Worst case scenario is you will get busted the next time you go ANYWHERE in Illinois.
