Do You Need a Lawyer for Minor Misdemeanor Drug Possession
My question involves criminal law for the state of Ohio. I recently got 2 minor misdemeanor citations, one for a small baggie of marijuana and one for paraphernalia. It's my first and only offense ever. I don't have any tickets. Is there any way to not get my license suspended and just pay a fine?
Re: Minor Misdemeanor Citation
A lawyer would be advisable. It is now (the law changed last September) entirely at the judge's discretion whether to suspend you or not.
