How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that a 27-day delay between payment for vehicle towing and any refund was not a due process violation
- holding that a routine delay substantially required by administrative needs does not violate due process
- holding that due process was not violated in a twenty-seven day delay in holding a hearing after an illegally parked vehicle was towed.
- holding that a hearing is not required within 48 hours of when a city imposes a parking fíne
- holding that a temporary deprivation of a car was more significant than a deprivation of money in the form of impoundment and towing fees
- concluding that “the straightforward nature of the issue -- whether the [plaintiff’s] car was illegally parked -- indicates that initial towing errors, while they may occur, are unlikely”
