So I live in a Small south Ga town that's famous for Making its money off of fines and tickets. Well the other day I got a citation for violating a city ordinance for discharging of firearm within city limits. Because a officer was close by and he heard the shoots and asked my neighbor first and she told on me.. he then came and asked me and I didn't lie or nothing and told em it was me. I had only done it because I was with Friend and I was selling gun to him and he wanted to see if it worked properly so I showed him. And i had shoot it at the grass in my backyard and I even showed cop where bullets struck on the grass. So I called the court. To see how much ticket was and it turns out it's 1313$ which I think is to much. Since towns small and I didn't put nobody's life in risk by shooting it in the air. And not like I ever lied to the cop. Is their a way I can ask for it to be lowered? Or something I could do ?
I'm also a full-time college students with no job so I really don't how i will get all that money without goin into debt
