Parking Ticket

Suddenly, your parking fines don’t seem all that bad.

A Chicago woman is trying to wiggle her way out of paying a hefty parking fine that totals more than $105,000, according to CBS News.

Jennifer Fitzgerald filed a lawsuit against the city last year after being hit with ticket after ticket by local police. A judge later dismissed the suit and urged both parties to reach a settlement.

The backstory? Her car, worth about $600, had been sitting in an employee parking lot at O’Hare Airport for nearly three years after her ex-boyfriend abandoned it.

Fitzgerald’s former flame has also been named in the suit.
