509.0. "I'm not guilty!!! " by BLITZN::LITASI (Sherry Litasi) Sat Apr 09 1988 19:01

Problem:  2 parking tickets @ $30 each to be paid by 4/23/88 or to appear
          at a hearing in rm224 Boston City Hall, 10:30 4/11.  If I don't
          pay or show up, I can't drive in Mass again...so they say on this
          computer generated notice from the office of the parking clerk.

In my defense:

1)  I never saw either ticket on my car; if I really did something wrong
    I would have paid it.

2)  At the 2 times I supposedly got ticketed, I wasn't there.
    2/20 0813p  67 Symphony  -  I was on a plane back to Denver
    2/20 0815a  4 Symphony - I was packing to leave the Westford Regency.

3)  I was in the City from about 11am to 4pm, parked for a while in a
    real parking place that had no restrictions that I could tell.  And
    I never moved the car.  I don't know the name of the street, but
    it ran under the expressway adjacent to Quincy Market.  I looked up
    Symphony and I was NEVER on that street.

4)  I returned the car to Avis @ Logan at about 5pm.

5)  I just got this notice last night, so I can't possibly appear at
    10:30 am in Boston on Monday.  And...why fly 2000 miles just to
    protest my innocence over a $60 ticket.


Can anyone help me?  Do you know someone at the City I could call?
I'm sure I could get the documentation to prove my whereabouts.  But
how to I handle this from 2000 miles away.  Should Avis get involved?

I am posting this several places to try to reach as many people as
possible.  Thanks in advance for your help.
