Section 4 – Guidelines For Filing An Appeal:
1. Appealing a citation will not defer Student Account charges.
2.
Appeals will be based solely on the written statement.
3. The questions that parking appeal judges ask when reviewing appeals are:
Did a violation occur?
Was the violation avoidable?
When the answer to both is "yes", the appeal will be denied.
4. Be CLEAR in explaining your situation
5. Be RELEVANT and POLITE in presenting your case
6. The following reasons are considered as frivolous for appeal:
Lack of knowledge of the regulations, for example, new to campus or have not reviewed regulations;
Other vehicles were parked improperly;
Only parked illegally for a short period of time;
Stated failure of parking officer to ticket previously for similar offenses;
Late to class or appointment;
Inability to pay the amount of the fine;
No other place to park.
Someone other than Security Officer said you could park there.
7. Don't appeal "just to give it a shot."
