Appeals judge rules against tow company, regulators see it differently Bill on Polis' desk adds consumer towing protections Denver7 and last updated 2021-06-15 20:44:09-04 DENVER â The courts have decided twice that a Colorado tow company had stepped over the line, but the agency responsible for regulating tow companies saw it differently. Earlier this year, a Denver judge ruled that Dene Attaway's car was "illegally towed" from her apartment complex, and an appeals court judge upheld the decision this month. "I am so happy, so relieved," Attaway said. "Justice was served, and I appreciate you guys stepping in." Attaway got her car back, and is now hoping she can get the money a judge ruled she is owed.
