Appeal a Parking Ticket

Appeal a parking ticket to the Ashland Municipal Court Judge. This is the same portal that you pay your parking ticket. Please enter your citation number and follow the prompts. Please note that the appeals process is taking longer than normal at this point in time, and it may take a few months for your appeal to be reviewed.  No late fees will be assessed while your appeal is waiting for review.

Do not submit a payment if you appeal the ticket. You will need to wait for a response from the Judge on whether or not the ticket is waived.
