Okay, well I've gotta go to court tomorrow for underage drinking. I was wondering if anyone knows anything about what will happen. I'm a little clueless and freaked out about it. Any advice or anything would help tons.

dang, you're lucky. lol really lucky. I had to ride home in a police car and got a ticket. My court thing isn't until later today. I still have to go to school. I was just wondering if anyone knew anything before I went.

Did you ask the cop what happens? It varies from place to place so I can't say whats going to happen. Maybe some community service or paying the fine.

Do you think there's any way I could ask the judge for community service instead of paying a huge fine? My friend got about a $400 fine and had to go to counceling... Is it likely they'll do the same type of thing for me?

I don't know its hard to say. Was your friend caught with you? If there the same circumstances then it is possible you could have what your friend got. Ask, the judge, its worth a shot.

Well this happened to my friend at a different time and place. But it was basically the same thing. Except she was passed out and they couldn't wake her up when they gave her a ticket. What I don't get is how she got a thirty dollar ticket to start off with while mine was $78 and had a low alcohol reading. Meeh, but it's in the same courthouse. But then I've heard some people have only gotten to do community service and it wiped off their record...the law system is so complicated.

Just got back from my court thing... The judge wiped it from my record! Yay! And now all I have to do is attend some alcohol classes and tell him what i've learned when I'm finished. Then he'll cut down my ticket of $78 even lower. Woot! Woot! lol, I'm soo relieved. Thanks for all the good luck everyone. It was so intimidating walking in there. I walk into this small room and there are four police officers and a judge all lookin at me. My knees were shaking and everything...but it's all good now...thank god.

I know court is really scary lol. I had to testify one time, I remeber that If I didn't show up they would arrest me or something. Anyways I was soo happy because the two guys pled guilty so I didn't have to go in and testify. I was soo happy!!
Thats good he wiped it off your record. I don't know if its the same where you live but here when you turn 19 everything gets wiped off it anyways.

Yeah, it gets wiped off at eighteen here. But that's still a few years for me and I'd be hard applying for jobs and having to write..minor consumption ticket..in every application. lol I thought my parents would kill me if I had a record. Of course I never told my dad about..but that's a whole nother story. And for now i'm happy!! LoL Yah! It's like it's christmas all over again.
