I am currently attending a certain university in Pennsylvania. The university does not have many parking areas. I had a friend come to the university, and park outside my residence hall. I then looked on the university website for the regulations regarding visitor parking, and posted online (as part of a campus map) was a parking permit. So, I printed it out and hung it in the windshield of my friend's van. However, we soon received a phone call from the police saying that they were at the van and because it is a "fake" permit, we were being charged with Theft of Services, a criminal charge. My question is, I did not technically forge any permits, and honestly thought the permit printed out would be enough to let us park there for an hour or two (at which point we were going to move it), so can I be charged with Theft of Services instead of just a simple parking ticket?

Wow, these guys were really bored. I would've just written you up for parking w/o valid permit and been done with it. Make a big stink in the campus newspaper, the University Police Dept. will want to quash it right away because they are under extreme political pressure not to do their jobs in most cases anyway.

Check with your state government and ask for the form that you need to take to your doctor. Your doctor will have to certify your disability and complete and sign for a handicap parking sticker/permit/license for you ... there are no standards for a service dog. You can search for that on-line and the fee is under $300 for the certification.

You have to follow the rules. If the University of Pennsylvania requires a form and/or a sticker for vistior parking then get one for your friend.
