If you received a Notice of Parking Violation you are required to respond to the notice within thirty (30) calendar days of its issuance.  Within the first 30 days the violation is handled by the Remittance Processing Division, not the Court.  The Court will receive the violation after 30 days if not addressed or if a hearing is requested.

The fine can be paid online, by mail or in person.  A hearing can be requested by email, mail or in person.  Signatures are required on all email and mail correspondence.  You must include full name, address, phone number and complaint number.  You may respond in the following ways:
