Public nuisance fine. Be certain to read this.

[admin]

We are doing a deep dive on public nuisance history. The way cities use it to fine you is complete bullcrap.

Over the past few years EVERY CITY now uses the term "public nuisance" and fines you. Your trash can is a public nuisance, your flat tire is a public nuisance, your non-registered farm car on your 100 acres is a public nuisance. The FACT all these citations end up in limited civil and not Court of Appeal permit this crazy application of the public nuisance label, now generic, to be used. Cities now use PUBLIC NUISANCE per se, meaning you are GUILTY just because a code officer says so. Fight fight fight.

Your administrative hearing will be recorded and transcribed. You need to question your code officer some very hard questions. So hard in fact you hope they cry. Read the deep dive into public nuisances in the more advanced section. It is a work in progress.

For every allegation your need to ask hard questions to your code officer who issued the citation. This will be transcribed into a document which you can use in court as evidence to impeach the code officer.

Note - read through the entire site on public nuisance issues.

ASK the code officer on the stand hard questions. (1) what is a public nuisance? (2) why would my couch in my car port be a public nuisance? (3) explain how my couch affects my neighbor next door, or across the street. ... and many more.
