Parking ticket worth fighting?

[brewso.livejournal.com]

My husband put our valid permit sticker in the old-school location (back driver's side window) instead of the new requirements (front driver's side windshield). I didn't notice since we've been parking on the street with it that way for a month now with no problem. However, today we got a ticket - $50.00, no less! Will they even hear our case, or will they just argue that it's our fault for putting the sticker on wrong? I really don't want to waste my time if it's the latter, even though we technically have a valid permit.

Arlington charges $5 to appeal parking tickets.

IMO that's illegal, since parking ticket procedures are clearly defined in state law, and there's nothing authorizing an appeal fee.
