Sample appeal wording
I am contesting the collection of Citation #[TICKET#] issued approximately [NUMBER] years ago. The pursuit of this citation after such extraordinary delay violates due process and the doctrine of laches. I have been prejudiced by this delay because [witnesses unavailable / records lost / memory faded]. I request dismissal based on this unreasonable delay.
Replace [PARKING DATE], [NtK DATE] etc. with your own dates before sending.
