Contest a fine from the CJIB? Get free advice!

Questioner

Good day, I recently received a notice from the CJIB for a parking violation that was committed almost half a year ago (time exceeded on parking disc). The fine is hefty: 97 euros. The violation was noted on 27-6 and the date is 14-12. Can I appeal to the fact that the CJIB waited too long to send the decision? Especially since I have not moved and the car has been in my name for a long time. I now read on the CJIB website that these Mulder fines (letter M on the decision) do not have a limitation period. However, other sources report that the fine must be on the doorstep within 4 months, which was clearly not the case now. Is there any point in appealing this decision? Thanks in advance for your response. Yours sincerely, OB

The Public Prosecution Service (OM) aims to send the fine within 4 months, but this is not a reason for the OM to declare the decision unfounded. Objecting to this is therefore pointless. Depending on the situation and the evidence, it is worth objecting to it.
