The 50 year tradition... to levy fines to an alarm site for false alarms... may now be unlawful… ...because the infraction is caused by a different party from a different address = (the monitoring firm). Consequently, the fine/fee obligation should be levied to the CALLER of the police report, not the alarm site.
