UBC to Appeal Supreme Court Decision

News Date: 
Jan 12, 2007

The BC Supreme Court has approved a case challenging UBC's parking enforcement policies, making the school potentially liable for a $4 million class-action lawsuit if the case is won. Daniel Barbour looked into his legal options when his car was towed due to five outstanding parking tickets that he says he knew nothing about. He is questioning the appeals process, which does not involve an impartial arbitrator. The University plans on appealing the Supreme Court's decision, and has stated that they operate their parking as a service, on a non-profit basis. UBC Ubyssey
