Appeals Process
If a person believes his/her vehicle has been unjustly ticketed, he/she may file an appeal by completing an 鈥渁ppeal form.鈥� Appeal forms may be obtained from the University Police/ Traffic Office.
If no appeal is filed within three (3) days of issuance of the citation, it is conclusively presumed that the assessment is in order.
The Traffic Appeals Board will not consider appeals based upon: lack of space, ignorance of regulations or inclement weather. Once a ticket has been assessed by the Traffic Appeals Board, its decision is final.
