The 2026 POPLA Appeal Success Checklist
Winning at POPLA isn't about being 'right'—it is about the parking company being legally wrong. Use this checklist before you hit submit.
1. The 14-Day Rule (POFA)
Did the Notice to Keeper (NTK) arrive within 14 days of the event? If it arrived on Day 15, the operator has lost the right to keeper liability.
2. Signage Illumination & Visibility
Was the sign lit? In 2026, many appeals are won because cameras use infra-red to 'see' plates, but drivers can't see the terms in the dark.
3. Landowner Authority Check
Require the operator to produce a current, unredacted contract with the landowner. They often fail to produce this under pressure.
