De Novo Appeal to Magistrate Court Under Idaho Code §49-1517
Any administrative parking decision in Idaho can be appealed to the Magistrate Division of the District Court for trial de novo under Idaho Code §49-1517 and ICR Rule 54.4 within 14 days of the administrative decision. The city must produce admissible evidence and the citing officer; cities frequently dismiss rather than send a parking enforcement officer for a $20 ticket.
