    Default Contributing to Delinquency of a Minor With Alcohol

    I used to live in florida, and i am getting accused of getting a 13 year old girl drunk which is not true. We had a falling out with her parents and they waited a month to decide to accuse me of this. She was dating my son at the time, and she ran home and told her mom that I forced 4 shots of whiskey down her throat, which we had no alcohol in the house. Now i have to go to court for an arraigment and I now live in another state and I just got the letter today and the court date is in a week. I live over a thousand miles away. If I dont show up they will have a warrant out for me and take my license someone tell me what to to. this is a nightmare.
    These people are already accusing someone else for raping there daughter. help please im in a panic :x I need a response soon. Oh by the way the letter i got looks like an invoice no summons didnt even sign for it, it was just forwarded

    Default Summons to Appear in Court

    I suggest that you consult a criminal defense lawyer in the county where the charge is pending, and form a strategy which will minimize your need to travel back to that jurisdiction, and perhaps even inspire the prosecutor to take a second look at whether the charge should have been authorized.

    Default contributing to the deliquency of a minor

    I just want to know how they can prove this case, especially when they waited a month. When this was supposed to happen they didnt even call the cops. They left that night to go on a trip. Sounds to me like they werent worried about it. Now why a month later are they accusing me. Why cause we got into an argument, and they want revenge. I dont even have the money to go to this hearing. Its impossible for me to get there. Does anyone know what lawyers cost these days. So whats going to happen if I cant make it there. And is this a misdemeanor. And what class is this if it is. I have never been in trouble with the law before, so I dont know anything or what to do. All this happened in june 05 and now its oct 05 and now i have to go to court. Any advice out there would be greatly appreciated.
