So I went to the City today and thought I found awesome parking. I ended up getting $115 fine, anyone who I can speak to who fights this stuff?

here's the story...
A double parking ticket just showed up online.. ticket was handwritten by a cop sitting in his car down the block. I was in the car the whole time, engine was on etc. the cop never came out of his car, and never actually gave the ticket. registration and VIN are not filled into the ticket...
I remember the incident pretty clearly.
do I need proof? or is it a lost case?

Not sure what you mean by "registration" not being filled in. VIN only gets filled in when there is no license plate or registration sticker.

That being said, I would give it at least a 50% chance that the ticket is defective (which is all you need to claim in defense: "defective ticket"). Most cops who are not "brownies" (are they still called that?) don't know how to write a parking ticket that is not defective.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

I fought it myself, and ticket was dismissed

What was your defense, and on what grounds was it dismissed? (Often it's dismissed for reasons other than defense claimed).

Got a parking ticket but officer forgot to fill out state, online when I search for the ticket it comes up but doesn't come up when I put my plate number and state. Online the state is listed as "99" not sure why..
Do I need to pay it ?
TIA

In NYC? Wait to see if they send you the pre penalty notice. If they don't send I wouldn't pay.. I had similar situation where they put temp license plate and never paid...

You can dispute it as  "defective"

What happens to out of NYC plates getting a fine from parking NYPD.

Does it matter from where the plate is NJ or TX?
And what's if its a rental?

In my exp, NY will get rental companies address from other states database and mail them the ticket and they will forward you the fine plus a fee for having to deal with it for you. If I were you I'd pay right away or plead not guilty online nycserv.nyc.gov

I got a parking ticket in NYC. Vehicle has NJ temporary tags.

The VIN number is listed on the ticket.

Is there any way out due to the temporary tags?

Could be you could let it ride out and ignore. Worse comes to worse you say you never got the ticket...

Got a meter ticket even though I was in an active session (Paid) in a different zone (New App).
Anyone know the law.
Do you have to pay again in your new zone?
On the paper payment system do have to buy it from the closest machine?
If you buy a 2-hour paper in a 1-hour max spot, Can they fine you without writing they saw the car there for more than 1 hour?

That would be so annoying if they did that, though, come to think of it, that's probably the reason they added the mobile parking option.

Not a parking ticket but I got it while I was parked
Got a ticket  for improper display of regstration sticker
My registration is expiring 8/9/17and I already had my new one expiring 8/2019 so I took of the original one and put the new one on the dashboard but didn't apply the sticker yet since I wanted to apply gogo and clean the glass before placing the new one. It was 100% visible
This was in NYC  4-08(j)(3)
