Any person who feels that a citation was issued in error may contest the parking citation by filing a notice of appeal at the Campus Security Office.
All persons receiving a citation have the right to appeal within twenty-one (21) calendar days from the date of Notice of Parking Citation.
To file an appeal, complete the form, sign the statements, and return to the Campus Security Office located in the Campus Center. The results of the appeal will be mailed to you usually within ten (10) working days. Appeals which are submitted more than twenty-one (21) calendar days after the violation date will not be considered.
For individuals whose appeals are upheld, a second level of appeal to an outside mediator can be requested. If resolution can not be reached at this level, the third level of appeal to the Review Committee can be requested.
According to California law, disregarding the citation will result in the filing of a complaint and renewal of vehicle registration is contingent upon compliance.
Please review the listing of situations which are not accepted as valid circumstances for parking violations to be dismissed. Appeals submitted based solely upon these reasons will not be considered.
