It happens,I almost let a kid slide b.c I forgot the date. I only check the year and month,I scanned the beer too and went to grab the money,then it clicked hey what is today's date. Plead not guilty at 1st,you be able to get a legal aide. Like the op said,even if you can't get a legal aide,ask about any diversion programs.
good luck
Unfortunately, no matter how busy it is....you have the obligation to check ID and check it carefully. Look for the marks that show it is a real ID. Look at the picture, look at the persons face, make sure they match. Read the date. No matter how busy, it takes 5 seconds to do that....
They'll have a public appointment system in place so that you can get legal representation if you cannot afford it. Not every county in North Carolina has a public defender system but they all have public appointment systems in place for persons who cannot afford representation. Thus, may you get a high dollar criminal defense attorney for free.![]()
