Julie Haran-Castaneda

Came in to defend my ticket and tow. Was completely respectful and profesional. PROVED the towing sign was COVERED in vegetation. Sign was Impossible to read. After 15 minutes of looking through my 10 pages of evidence, she then suddenly Still ruled in favor of the city because she disagreed with the... enormous tree in the way. Told her I want to go to another judge. Takes my evidence anyways. Tells me I have to start paying attorney fees if I want to proceed to the circuit court. It would have cost her nothing to do the right thing but chose not to anyways. What a c***

She was assigned as the administrative law judge for my parking violation case. I was parked in a zone with clear signage that said school zone and had no residential parking restrictions. I provided clear photos from 3 different views to support the improper violation notice. This judge either did n...ot look at the evidence or is getting kick backs from the city to support false tickets and fines.
