Missing or Obscured Signage

Parking restrictions must be clearly posted. Signs that are missing, obscured, or don't meet requirements may invalidate tickets.

Legal basis

Philadelphia Traffic Code; Due process

Sample appeal wording

I am disputing Citation #[TICKET#] issued at [LOCATION] on [DATE]. The parking restriction was not properly posted because [EXPLAIN: sign missing / obscured by / damaged / etc.]. I have attached photographic evidence. Parking restrictions must be clearly posted to be enforceable. I request dismissal.

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