When fixing a breach of a parking contract and entering data into an information system to impose a penalty claim, it can no longer be cancelled or deleted by the inspector. The infringement fixation process is irreversible and takes place in accordance with the working instructions of Parkguard OÜ.

Upon subsequent submission of the application, Parkguard OÜ has the right to leave the challenge pending. When a challenge is filed, the payment term of the due penalty claim does not change.
In the event of non-payment of the penalty claim on the grounds of legitimate interest of Parkguard OÜ, the right of claim shall be assigned to the collection company and to turn to the district court with the claim.
