If you received a parking citation for a vehicle that was stolen, you must submit:
- Copy of the citation (if available); and
- Copy of the police report when you reported the vehicle stolen. You can obtain a copy from the agency you reported the matter to.
- "Reported date" must be prior to or within 24 hours of citation issue date.
- Report must include the license plate or vehicle identification number.
The judge will only accept letters with the above information.
You can fax your documents to the Parking Citation Office at 503.276-0994. *Note: the court does not respond to faxes*. It is the responsibility of the sender to follow up with the Parking Citation Office; they will need to make sure documents have been received, are clear, and complete. Faxed documents should include a current mailing address, so the court can contact you if more information is required.
Send the above documents or see “How do I plead Not Guilty and Request a Hearing?" for information on requesting a hearing.
The court must receive all documents or requests within 60 days of the date of the notice. If you are unable to provide the documents listed above, you can still download and submit the PDF version of the mail-in Response to Parking Citation Form or electronically submit the Online Response to a Parking Citation, along with your explanation and documents to a judge for a possible reduction of the fine amount or to request a trial.
