A woman has been handed the largest bill parking tickets ever given in Chicago. The citations were given over a three year period to a decayed 1999 Chevy Monte Carlo. However, she is switching around and suing the city over the issue. How can that be you ask? Read on.
Considering ownership
The car, a 1978 Chevy Monte Carlo, was purchased for $600 in 1999, and is owned by 31-year-old Jennifer Fitzgerald, an unemployed single mother from Chicago. Or is it? Even the ownership of the automobile is fuzzy in this convoluted sequence of events.
The car was listed under Fitzgerald's name after ex-boyfriend Brandon Preveau bought it from his uncle. The vehicle was used by Preveau to get to and from his job at the airport working for United Airlines. Fitzgerald did not know why Preveau abandoned the automobile, but she said: "On or before Nov 17, 2009, Brandon drove the Automobile into the Parking Lot and never drove it out again."
Giving it citations
The vehicle was intended to be towed again and again but was never done. In May 2009, the car got its first ticket. The car was then cited for having expired plates, busted windows, now having a town sticker, having damaged headlights and for being abandoned over 30 days. It still was not towed despite anything.
The vehicle owes over $65,000 now after collecting 678 tickets.
Fitzgerald's reaction
Fitzgerald did not know her name was on the title, she claims, which means Preveau has to pay off the $100,000 in tickets. She cannot afford to get a loan for a car let alone a massive bill like that. The town says she has to pay the bill though.
Therefore, she has filed her complaint against Preveau, the Town of Chicago and United Airlines, because it leased the parking lot from the town for employee parking. Fitzgerald contends that if the town had towed the vehicle after 30 days as it should have, the citations would not have accrued.
It will be 2013 before the case goes to a judge.
