The city of Los Angeles has ordered parking enforcement and police officers to immediately stop impounding vehicles that have accrued numerous unpaid parking tickets because of a pretrial ruling in a lawsuit that could profoundly change the city's parking enforcement in the future.

"Effective immediately," the towing authority for five or more unpaid parking citations,"shall be temporarily suspended," wrote Brian Hale, the Chief of Parking Enforcement for the City of LA, in a Feb. 4 memo obtained by the I-Team.

"This kind of ruling is a victory for the people at the bottom rungs of the socio-economic ladder, who are least able to deal with it," said attorney Donald W. Cook, who filed the lawsuit last August.
