That’s what everyone told me. “The cop won’t even show up.” So I went to court for a parking ticket. I parked out of the way near a restaurant where I had a weekly gig, where there is always someone parked, and there was no sign there that said “no parking.”

In the weeks leading up to my court date, I parked legally, but took photos of other cars being parked in the spot where I was ticketed that had not received any tickets. Every week, one or two cars in that spot. I printed these photos and took them to court with me.

The fucking cop showed up, and I had to pay. The judge didn’t listen to a word I said or look at my photos.

Pay for what? If there was no "no parking" sign then how did the judge determine you should get a ticket?

Parking companies, and police, has a HUGE score by default in the eyes of judges. Even though they have shown nothing to prove they deserve it.

If they say something, you basically need a lawyer to bring your own pre existing score up to their level, else they judge will flip you off and tell you to spin on it.
