Julie Haran-Castaneda

Like others in these reviews, I believe that Julie Haran-Castaneda did not review the evidence in my parking ticket appeal, and instead issued an inapplicable boilerplate response without actually reviewing my simple case. Although I ordered my new parking permit two weeks before the deadline, the... new permit did not arrive until the day After the deadline (I was ticketed the day before). I submitted proof of my timely paid order and highlighted the excessive time it took for the permit to arrive in the mail, but Judge Julie did not address my argument for the delayed receipt. Rather, she mischaracterized my position as arguing that the permit was present at the time of ticketing (I never alleged this), and because it was actually Not present, the ticket was valid. Shame on this judge. I imagine there are good judges in her position, but it does not surprise me to find bad ones like her relegated to low level revenue extortion.

The supporting evidence does not appear to have been considered. Decisions made without reviewing the full context can lead to incomplete conclusions, and I hope this becomes clearer with broader scrutiny. The judge denied the claim for non-payment of vehicle parking; however, the receipt confirmi...ng payment does not appear to have been reviewed.
