-
Appeals must be filed online.
-
Appeals must be filed within fifteen (15) days of the issue date of the citation. Late appeals will not be considered.
-
Failure to receive notice of the citation does not extend the appeal period. If you park illegally you should assume that you have been cited.
-
Explain your reason for appeal. Be specific and thorough in your explanation.
-
If you have evidence that you would like to be considered as part of your appeal, you must bring the evidence to the office of the Municipal Court Office at G01-C Edgar Brown Union. (Examples: Disability permit, Redfern permit, photo, etc.) The Parking Review Board will review your appeal the first Thursday after filing. The board will review your appeal without evidence if it is not brought to the Municipal Court office in a timely matter.
-
The Parking Review Board, made up of students, faculty and staff, meets on Thursday afternoons at 3:30 p.m. to review pending appeals. During the summer months the Board meets as needed.
-
The Parking Review Board's decision will be communicated via email, however it is ultimately your responsibility to follow up with your appeal. If you do not receive an email you may follow up by contacting either the Municipal Court at 864-656-5258 or Parking Services at 864-656-2270.
-
If the citation is reduced, the fine must be paid within ten (10) days of the Board's decision. If your ticket is affirmed (guilty), your appeal does not extend the fifteen (15) calendar day discount period. This automatic discount runs from the date the citation is issued. If you are concerned with losing the discount, you should go ahead and pay your fine. If your citation is dismissed or reduced and you have already paid the fine, the difference will be refunded. The discount does not apply to habitual violator citations.
-
Any person desiring to appeal the decision of the Parking Review Board must petition the Parking Review Judicial Officer (in writing) within five (5) calendar days of the decision of the Parking Review Board. The petition must clearly and concisely state the ground(s) for appeal. The Parking Review Judicial Officer may summarily decline to entertain any such appeal.
Deadlines will not be extended due to your failure to follow-up in a timely manner!
