We live in Illinois, an I had to have my mom arrested for criminal trespass at our residence. She is facing up to 6 months in jail, which I obviously don't want to see happen. I contacted the states attorney who siad that they cannot dismiss it now becuase its already set for trial. But they did say that if I don't show up for the trial the case would be dismissed. Is that true? Is that the best route now?
Thanks!
