I went to the Dept of revenue to pay four outstanding parking tickets. I was informed after six yrs. of haveing a clean licsense, that their was $5000.00 in unpaid parking tickets in my name. I went next door and requested a hearing on this matter. The Dept. of Revenue Adminstrative Officer would not intertain my arguement that i did not get these tickets. Furthermore that i did not have a vehicle registered in any state during the ime in question (Oct 1997 thru Feb 2003) I submitted legal doumentation from the Secretary State Office attesting to this fact.
I'v recently been informed that the tickets are to old, and i will have to pay them if i want my drivers licsense privilege reinstated. I Have recently been informed of this matter,i reiterate for six yrs.I've had a clean licsense.
Can anybody out their give me some suggestions. I dont have the funds to hirer a lawyer, I am a person with disabilites and my only income is my SSI check.

It looks like you choose your words very carefully...
Furthermore that i did not have a vehicle registered in any state during the ime in question (Oct 1997 thru Feb 2003)

- You don't say you didn't have a vehicle..just that you didn't have a vehicle "registered". You also say you submitted documentation from the SS Office. Was that for every state or just IL? Because I doubt that the Secretary of State of IL would certify that you didn't have a vehicle in Oregon or Florida. You also make it clear that it has been 6 years? So did not not have a license during that time or was it not "clean" for other reasons?
I say this because parking tickets would be tied to a specific vehicle either by License Plate and/or VIN. Do you have access to this information? Because wouldn't it be a better course of action to prove that you were not the owner of the specific vehicles in question?
If you are 100% sure that you were not a registered owner of a vehicle at that time, and they refuse to give you the vehicle information for the tickets. Then while I normally don't suggest this I would suggest that you talk to one of the consumer reporters at your local news station and tell them your story.

false tickets and violations

The department of revenue in Chicago is definantly dirty, and they play dirty and lie. They falsely accused me of the same violation two days in a row. I was guilty on one, but was not even in Chicago the second day. What can we do, who can help us? I and a retiring carpenter and also can not afford a lawyer.
