Double Ticketing Same Violation

NYC prohibits issuing multiple tickets for the same parking violation on the same day. If you received more than one ticket for identical violations within the same calendar day, subsequent tickets should be dismissed.

Legal basis

NYC Traffic Rules § 4-08; NYC Administrative Code § 19-203

Sample appeal wording

I am contesting Summons Number [SECOND TICKET#] issued on [DATE]. I received a prior ticket (Summons Number [FIRST TICKET#]) for the identical violation at the same location on the same calendar day. Under NYC regulations prohibiting double ticketing for the same violation, this subsequent summons is improper and should be dismissed. I have attached copies of both summonses demonstrating this duplication.

Replace [PARKING DATE], [NtK DATE] etc. with your own dates before sending.
