Ok - thanks, I will make some calls. in the meantime, my ticket has "nontraffic" checked. THEN down at the bottom is my "notice to appear" that area says:
when - on or before 5-21-08 at 3:00 am (or 5:00 am...go figure, I didn't know courts were open 24 hours!!!)
where - Santa Barbara Superior Court
Figueroa Division.
Does that seem like I'd be able to change to juvenile court? I understand about not changing the fact that I'm in trouble... but I should have all this as a minor not as an adult.

And you should call the court and advise them you are a minor. Unless that division is also the traffic court, this should go to juvenile probation before it goes to court.
You may get lucky and they might dismiss because of this ... but, they might not.
On the other hand, maybe mom and dad will pay for an attorney. I wouldn't, but then I can be a mean dad. :D

Any advice on what to say when I call in hopes of getting lucky for a dismissal? OR... what would an attorney say?? I know mom will be beside me when I make the call - but I'm trying to get as much info as possible... it's my mess.
