    Question Help With MIP Charge

    I was charged with minor in possession (alcohol). I was not given a breathalizer test they only asked if I have been drinking even if only a sip so I said yes because I had a sip and did not want to lie. I cooperated with police and they wrote me the citation and allowed me to go free. But I am wondering if I should fight this because the fact of no physical proof that I actually had anything to drink. Iwas not holding any alcohol when they came through the door. I don't feel that this is right.

    Consult a local criminal defense lawyer to see how the local courts treat these tickets. You may be able to get a dismissal or participate in a diversion program to avoid a conviction, depending upon local policies.
