Parking Ticket Dispute
Parking Citation Appeals
Review (1st Level)
With the Governor's signing of AB 1032, law enforcement agencies statewide can no longer void, cancel, or destroy any parking or traffic citation. Only the issuing officer can request the citation to be rescinded under strict guidelines.
Should a party elect to contest a parking citation, the first step is to initiate an Administrative Review. The party cited has 21 days from the issue date of the citation to initiate a request for an Administrative Review.
**Important: Do not pay the citation should you initiate a citation appeal.
The Administrative Review is a process where the issuing officer and his/her supervisor will review the citation. A determination is returned to the requesting party via mail. After receiving the determination, the cited party has 21 days (from the date of mailing) to escalate the appeal to the next level, an on-campus Administrative Hearing.

Hearing (2nd Level)
The cited party will request the Administrative Hearing and post the parking penalty. The hearing officer will contact the requesting party and set-up an appointment for the conference. The hearings are held on campus on the 3rd Wednesday of every month, between the hours of 3pm to 5pm.
After the hearing, the hearing officer will mail the determination to the cited party. The parking penalty will be returned or refunded. If the citation is deemed valid, the parking penalty will be forfeited. Should the cited party still disagree with the hearing officer's determination, they can file suit in small claims court (Compton Judicial Court) (3rd Level)
- Administrative Hearing Form (30k)
- Continuation Form (17k).
