    Default MIP and Fake I.D. Charge

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Kansas.

    I've been given a ticket for unlawful use of non-drivers identification and MIP, this is a first time offense (I'm 20 years old). What kind of charges can I face from this? Do cases like these require a lawyer? How can this affect my future career? If I am acquit, is there any way my parents would find out about it? Thank you in advance.

    The fake ID is serious (how serious depends on just exactly what they charged you with), most likely a class A or B misdemeanor. You need a lawyer.

    Ron is not kidding about the lawyer.

    Here's the penalty JUST for the MIP:

    Up to 1 month in jail
    $200 minimum fine ($500 if under 18)
    40 hours of community public service
    Required attendance in an alcohol education program
    suspended driver's license for 30 days.

    For the ID issue, depending on what the actual charge is, you could be looking at fines up to $2,500 and up to a year in prison. You'll want that lawyer ASAP. Yesterday, if you can manage it.
