Most Ticket Appeals Aren't Heard in Court
By Carrie Edwards
Student court records for this fall show that of 50 scheduled traffic ticket appeals, only 14 students showed up for hearings.
This means only 28 per cent of the cases appealed at the traffic office are heard in student court.
Ivan Poe, Peabody second-year law student and defense counsel for the student court, said:
"Fourteen in court out of 50 on appealed forms is no record to brag about, but this is about the same ratio we have had in past years
"Students either get scared after they submit their appeals on detailed forms or else they realize later that they have no legal leg to stand on."
Poe said that although the court has a record of one out of five appeals granted, students should realize that they do have a chance in appealing cases in court.
"Fines in court appeals have been lessened this year by over $200.
"Most students in the student court don't deserve to get any of their fines exonerated. In fact most don't even know the traffic regulations that apply on campus," Poe said.
If a student receives a traffic ticket which he thinks was given unjustifiably he should do the following to appeal his case:
1. Read the book of traffic regulations to be sure he was not in the wrong.
2. Fill out an appeal form in the Campus Police Office in Hoch Auditorium and leave it with an attendant there. Do this within ten

days of the time the ticket was issued.
4. Go to the student court and complete the appeal.
3. Wait 10 to 14 days until a notice is received telling when and where the appeal will be heard in court.

The report of the appeal at the Campus Police Office is not sufficient to get money back or fines exonerated.
