    Default Re: Parking Ticket Contains No Violated City Code or Statute

    it says "parking violation citation" . "You're in violation of City of ... parking ordinance or State of Oregon parking statute. The specific parking violation and the fine amount i indicated below"


    There's a ticket number, my license nuber, the fee amount, pay by date, location, lot number, space number, and "past 2HR" which is why I got the violation, agent number, date, time, and a phone number.

    But nowhere does the ticket list the actual statute or ordinance (no statute, or ordinance number) I'm supposed to have violated.

    Well, obviously people here will tell you it is for staying past 2 hours.

    But the KEY will be 'can you get the local authority to tell you the charge' and if they cannot, they have a problem.

    Contact the city, say "I think I got a ticket but it got damaged, could you send me a notice?"

    Just thinking out loud

    Well, I am trying to use this ticket as a learning experience in law. It's a cheap way. If I fail to get the ticket discharged because there's no city ordinance or state statute listed ( I very sure I have the right to know the statute or ordinance I violated ) then it will only cost me $22.

    What I was hoping to get was some USC code or some such that states that tickets require to state the code of the violation in order to be valid, but I can try the defense without it too.

    In summary, my defense would be that the ticket is invalid because it doesn't contain the code of the ordinance violated.
