Chicago Woman Fighting $100,000 Parking Fine

M7® 4/12/2013 9:52 pm	Chicago Woman Fighting $100,000 Parking Fine >>>Yahoo!<<< CHICAGO (AP) – A Chicago woman is trying to get out of paying a parking fine that has snowballed to more than $100,000. WBBM Radio reports that (http://cbsloc.al/10PoNXv ) Jennifer Fitzgerald filed a lawsuit last year against the city over the $105,000 worth of tickets that police piled up on her car. The car was left for nearly three years in a parking lot at O'Hare International Airport. WBBM says a judge dismissed the lawsuit Wednesday and pressed the parties to try harder to reach a settlement. Fitzgerald says she should not be held responsible for the fine because her ex-boyfriend abandoned the car in an employee parking lot at the airport. She says the car is only worth about $600. The suit also names her former boyfriend. Information from: WBBM-AM, http://www.wbbm780.com We're all here because we're not all there � ~~ We could learn a lot from crayons.
