    Usually the threat of court is enough to make someone pay up or at least willing to deal...inform her/the company of your intent and see what they have to say.

    Stop in and inform them them you are on your way to file the claim at the courthouse but figured you'd give them one last chance to rectify the situation before filing the claim. That way you can show them the paperwork (or whatever is involved) so it doesn't look like an empty threat.

      Waste of time and money, it's a "fire lane" not an "unloading zone" as much as it sucks just gonna have to deal with it IMO, there are resident managers on site for a reason, even if she is a bitch. Kinda shitty how they towed out of the parking spot tho

        It's like getting a tow tag, as long as you move before someone gets there to tow you, they can't tow you...

        At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

          If your going to go to small claims court, don't mention stopping in the fire lane. Go there to protest being towed from your parking spot for no reason.

            Joel, is there any signs that state there is a fire lane where you had your truck?

                if it goes fairly quickly or the resovle it out of court it would be a very easy way to make 200 dollars back. doesnt seem like much but thats 3 months cable/internet bill.

                        That has GOT to be a promo rate. I get normal cable and 3mb internet for a grand total of around $110 a month.

                            Go to court house and ask front desk guy which floor you need for small claims. Then go up there and explain your situation and they will help you from there.

                            If you go to court, make sure your approach is that 'she has been hasseling me for awhile, because I have had problems with her cats....' and 'I never stopped in the fire lane, I was parked in a normal parking spot, then come out and find my truck is gone...I thought it was stolen! Why would I assume it was towed from a legit spot...she is simply harassing me!'

                            If you go into it with the story you listed above, you just wasted $200 + court fees.

                              It isn't lying if you weren't parked there... maybe you were stopped with the vehicle running. Playing dumb usually works...

                                        The only thing that could go wrong with Jason's advice is if the company does have proof that you where parked in a fire lane.

                                        If there is no signage or rules in your lease about being parked where they are saying is a fire lane it should be pretty straight forward case.

                                        I have never had a cable one bill over $100. I have basic cable and 3mb internet.
