Dispute A Parking Ticket

The Denver County Court Parking Division does not have a physical public facing office but can be contacted directly Monday through Friday 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., excluding legal holidays

Parking Division Contact Information

Phone: 720-913-5300
Email: parking@denvercountycourt.org

Additionally, the Parking Division provides multiple options for the owner or operator of the vehicle at the time the citation was issued, to contest a parking citation through both an administrative process and a judicial process. If you choose to dispute a parking citation, during the time period that it is under review, your citation will not incur any additional fees, and the Parking Division will provide their decision in 30 days or less. If the Parking Division determines a citation is valid and due in full, or if it determines that the citation is valid but offers a reduction in the fine amount, you will be provided with a future response date to either submit your payment, or to further contest the citation by setting the matter for a Final Hearing. If the Parking Violations Bureau determines that the citation is invalid and is being dismissed, you will be notified of that decision and that no further action on your part is needed and that no fine is due.

Available Dispute Options:

Submit a dispute through U.S. Mail

Requires the reason you are contesting the citation along with any supporting documentation you would like to be considered. Please address to the:
Denver Parking Violations Bureau
P.O. Box 46500
Denver, CO 80201-6500

Submit a dispute through Email

Requires the reason you are contesting the citation along with any supporting documentation you would like to be considered. Available online through the City & County of Denver – Parking Portal system.

Set your case for a Final Hearing

Although you may request your citation be set for a Final Hearing before a judicial officer of the Denver County Court without first engaging in the written or email dispute process, the more common process is a person has submitted a dispute via U.S. Mail or email, does not agree with the decision made by the Parking Division, and now wishes to set the matter for a Final Hearing before the court.

To set a parking citation for a Final Hearing, call the Parking Magistrate’s Office at 720-913-5300. You will be required to provide an acceptable form of photo identification. If you do not have photo identification, you will be required to swear or affirm your name and address verifying that you were the owner or operator of the vehicle at the time the citation was issued, and that you do not have access to any form of photographic identification that you can reasonably present.

You will also be provided with documentation to sign regarding your rights, enter a not-guilty / not-liable plea, and be provided with a summons, date, time, and location to appear for your Final Hearing. Please be aware that parking citations are non-criminal infractions and as such, a person does not have a right to a jury trial.
