    How Can I Get My Money from the City of Los Angeles
    To cut a long story short, I got a $700 ticket which was nonsense.

    I had to pay it in full to fight it in court, which I did.....

    At my trial, the officer didnt show up, so I was told case dismissed and to leave the court, and I would get a full refund.

    12 weeks later still no money.

    What can I do to try get my money back?

    Call the court clerk and explain the situation. It may take up to 3 or 4 months to make it's way through such a large system. But call just to be sure it has not slipped through the cracks.

    Don't go first thing in the morning... Go at about 9:15 AM to 9:30 AM when everyone is still in court and hasn't lined up to pay their fine or better yet, go in the afternoon... at about 4:15 PM.

    Also, my guess is that the way it will happen, you will get the check the day AFTER you waste hours inquiring about its status... So even if 3 hours is too long, invest some time into it and that ought to scare that check into your mailbox. :D :D :D
