My question involves criminal law for the state of: Florida
My friends and I were caught in my car smoking marijuana, when the officer asked I said everything was mine. I was charged with two counts of paraphernalia and posession of marijuana, less than 20 grams, all misdemeanors. These are my first offenses. The officer who arrested me failed to read me my miranda rights.
my questions are:
1. should I actively engage in pursuing a lawyer for my case, given that my rights were not read to me?
2. am i expected to take a drug test on the day of my court date?
3. what kind of consequences should i expect for these charges?
thank you
