Re: Parking tickets
Parking tickets are fines that are not dischargeable in bankruptcy. You still have to pay them. Sorry.

Parking tickets are not criminal in nature, and therefore are dischargeable like any other debt. Booting a car would, in my opinion, be a violation of the permanent injunction provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.
