Brannon, Joan G.

Abstract:

This bulletin discusses a law passed in 1982 as a result of a concern that allowing motor vehicles to be towed without the opportunity for a quick hearing would be an unconstitutional taking of property without due process of law. Brannon seeks to explain the law and suggests a step-by-step procedures for holding towing hearings.
