Sauder Schelkopf is investigating a potential class action lawsuit involving Philadelphia Parking Authority having resident’s cars moved when they are found parked in a temporary no-parking zone, a practice commonly known as a “courtesy tow.” It has been reported that residents whose cars have been moved are unable to locate their vehicles and may erroneously report them as stolen. People have reported returning from a trip to find their car missing, impounded, and scheduled for auction. People have also reported discovering that their vehicles had been vandalized upon retrieving them. Others have reported their cars were moved and ticketed multiple times, after which it may be booted. If you have had your car relocated as a result of it having been parked in a temporary no parking zone, please contact us.
