Begin the body of your letter by briefly and clearly recounting the facts of the incident. To make your letter easy for the reader to understand, keep your facts in chronological order. Include details about when you arrived, where and how you parked your vehicle, and when you returned. Mind your tone as you write.
Use a standard business letter format, including your name and contact information, the date, the court's address, and a formal opening salutation such as "Dear Judge." Be sure to proofread your letter for any errors in grammar or spelling, and keep the tone respectful and professional.
Outside of the Supreme Court, always use “The Honorable (full name)” in your correspondence. STATE COURTS Note: States may vary on titles of judges. Check with court or various state court resources to determine proper address and salutation forms, particularly for Chief Judges/Chief Justices.
Always address the Traffic Magistrate by saying Your Honor.
A driver has a right to an appeal in every state, but the process tends to be time-consuming and can be expensive. If you are only contesting a fine and are not at risk of losing your license, it may not be worthwhile. The deadline to appeal varies by jurisdiction but is typically about 30 days.
