What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Iowa
I was visiting someone in an apartment building (45 minutes). I came out to a 'parking on private property' citation - I was parked in the same apartment building lot that I was visiting the person. The parking lot was not marked and there was no way I could have known without someone verbally informing me - which they didn't. The police station attendant said they didn't have to mark it and the landlord called it in and that it would be a civil dispute. I don't understand how they can cite me when they don't have it marked. There were no signs at all and the parking spaces were not marked at all.
The landlord is also a police officer - not that it should matter.
