fine-appeal-letter
Appeal a parking ticket, penalty charge, or administrative fine with the grounds that actually get appeals granted — not indignation. Use when someone got a ticket/fine/penalty notice and either has a legitimate case or wants an honest read on whether they do. Produces a short formal appeal letter built on recognised grounds (signage, procedure, mitigation, first-offence discretion), the evidence checklist, and a candid win-likelihood note — or the honest advice to just pay it.

# Fine Appeal Letter
Appeals officers read thousands of letters. Anger loses; length loses; the word "outrageous" loses. What wins is a short letter matching one **recognised ground** to **attached evidence**. This skill writes that letter — and tells you when you don't have one, because the second-best outcome is not wasting an afternoon.
## Required Inputs
- **The notice** — what for, when, where, the cited code/rule if shown, the deadline (appeals have clocks; state it back).
- **What actually happened** — the honest version. The letter will be built only from defensible facts.
- **Evidence available** — photos (signage, meter, bay markings), receipts, tickets, medical/breakdown documentation, prior clean record.
## The Grounds That Work (match one, lead with it)
1. **Signage/markings defective or ambiguous** — obscured, contradictory, missing at point of decision (photo-dependent; the strongest ground when real)
2. **Procedural error** — wrong plate/location/time on the notice, issued outside rules, meter fault (the notice's own text is the evidence)
