This article provides a practical guide and a professionally drafted legal template to help you file an administrative appeal (Recurso de Alegaciones) to contest the sanction.
How and where to submit your appeal in Montamarta
Once you have filled out the template below, you must submit it within the 20-calendar-day period following the notification of the fine. In Montamarta, you have several options to file your appeal:
- In-person: You can visit the Town Hall (Ayuntamiento de Montamarta) or the local office of the DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico) in Zamora to register your document.
- Online: If you have a digital certificate or Cl@ve PIN, you can submit the appeal via the official DGT Electronic Headquarters (Sede Electrónica).
- Post Office (Correos): You can send the document via "Correo Administrativo." Ensure the envelope is open so the clerk can stamp the date on your copy before sealing it.

Additional documentation required
To ensure your appeal is processed correctly, you must attach the following documents to your application:
- A photocopy of your DNI, NIE, or Passport.
- A copy of the notification of the fine (the original letter sent to your home).
- Any evidence you possess (e.g., if you were not the driver, attach a document showing the vehicle was sold or stolen at the time).
- Power of attorney if you are acting on behalf of someone else.
Expert Tip: Remember that if you pay the fine within the first 20 days, you benefit from a 50% discount. However, be aware that by paying the fine voluntarily, you waive your right to file any further administrative appeals. If you are confident that the radar was faulty or the notification process was flawed, it is often better to file the appeal before making any payment. Always keep a stamped copy of your submission as proof of receipt.
