Bryan Olive, a staffer at the Ayn Rand Institute in Irvine, turned in his leased car last March. In August, the car got a parking ticket in Los Angeles.

That set off a round of bureaucratic bungling that got much worse before it got better thanks to the intervention of the Orange County Register's OC Watchdog blog.
