MEMORANDUM OPINION
Dennis Brady was found guilty of a parking violation in Newmarket District Court. The Superior Court (Contas, J.) accepted a de novo appeal, but denied the defendant’s motion to waive the $8 appeal entry fee. This appeal challenges the constitutionality of the appellate filing fee.
A violation is not a criminal offense. RSA 625:9 II(b). We see no reason to alter our holding in State v. Basinow, 117 N.H. 176, 178, 371 A.2d 458, 460 (1977), upholding such a fee.
Affirmed.
