My question involves criminal law for the state of: New York
I received a ticket in a public park, as I was unaware that it closed after sunset. Officer told me it would be a $20-$300 fine, and said it would probably be on the lower end. If I plead guilty, will I receive the max fine? I would like to avoid going to court, as I don't really want my family members to know that I got this ticket.
Thanks
