 Refund Announcement

East LA Camera

 

This is the County's form letter that will be sent to the approx. 3000 persons who are to receive refunds for tickets at Whittier / Atlantic in East LA. 
According to the County, the letter will go out on Department of Public Works letterhead.


Re:  Citation Number __________ 

Dear __________:

           On __________, you received a traffic ticket for running a red light at the intersection of Atlantic and Whittier, Los Angeles, California.  At that time, the red light photo enforcement system at the intersection was not working properly. As a result, you were given a ticket by mistake.  The County of Los Angeles has corrected the problem and the system now operates properly.

           On May 15, 2003, at the request of the County of Los Angeles, the Los Angeles Superior Court dismissed your conviction arising from the ticket.  This will have the same effect as if you were found innocent of running a red light.

           The Court ordered that a check be issued to you refunding the amount you paid in fines and fees as a result of the ticket.  The Court will mail a refund check to you at the address indicated on the ticket. This process may take up to 90 days.  If you do not receive a refund within 90 days, please contact the Warrant Investigation Section of the Los Angeles County Auditor-Controller at 213-744-3451 or by email at trafficphotoclaims@auditor.co.la.ca.us.

The Court also ordered the California Department of Motor Vehicles to remove this ticket from their records. If the ticket is not removed, please contact the Warrant Investigation Section of the Los Angeles County Auditor-Controller at 213-744-3451 or by email at trafficphotoclaims@auditor.co.la.ca.us.

            If you believe that you are entitled to recover additional compensation for other damages you suffered as a result of the ticket, such as the cost of traffic school, you must file a claim.  For your convenience, a blank claim form is enclosed.  If you wish to make a claim, you must complete the claim form and submit it to the County of Los Angeles within six months of the date of this letter.  Please mail or hand deliver your completed claim form to the Executive Officer of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors at 500 West Temple Street, Room 383, Los Angeles California, 90012.
 

            You do not need to submit the claim form in order to receive your refund for fines and fees associated with the ticket.  The refund check will be sent to you directly. 

If you have any questions regarding the claim process, you may contact the Warrant Investigation Section of the Los Angeles County Auditor-Controller at 213-744-3451 or by email at trafficphotoclaims@auditor.co.la.ca.us.  Please refer to this letter when you call or email. 

            The County sincerely apologizes for any inconvenience this situation may have caused you and will work to ensure that your claim is handled in a timely manner.
