Appeal a Parking Ticket

If you receive a parking ticket, please follow the instructions on the citation for proper handling. Students and employees who feel a citation was issued in error may appeal the citation. All appeals must be submitted within 15 days of the citation's issuance. Appeals are reviewed by Campus Safety and Security Command Staff. If the appeal meets ALL criteria for an appeal, the appeal then goes to a rotating committee comprised of student, staff and faculty volunteers, who take their personal time to review appeals.

  • Only those with valid JU parking permits may go through the appeals process
  • Appeals must be submitted on the appropriate form available in the Campus Safety and Security Office or online with the Parking Appeals Form
  • Submit completed appeal form to Campus Safety and Security office located in the Howard Administration Building
  • The citation must be with the appeal.  They will not be considered if you do not have the citation
  • The Appeals Committee will review the appeal and an email and a written copy of the decision will be sent to the address listed on the appeal
  • If the appeal is dismissed, the citation charge will be removed from the account. If the appeal is upheld, the original fine must be paid.
