    Default Public Consumption of Alcohol

    I recently was given the same ticket. Is it a misdemeanor or just a fine? Does it show up on your record?

    Default Re: Drinking In Public In South Carolina

    Additionally, specific information on the ticket -

    Violation: Poss. of Alcohol in Public
    Violation Section No.: *this was left blank*
    Offense Code: 94

    I have a court date tomorrow and intend to plead guilty (because I was) and ask for a reduction in fine, but I just want to make sure that I've covered my basis. At 26 years old, I've never had any interaction with the law other than two speeding tickets and don't intend to have a record anytime soon.

    To confirm, you're in South Carolina?

    This may be an ordinance violation. What's the municipality in which the ticket was issued?

    Correct, I live on Hilton Head Island in South Carolina and received the ticket within the town. I report to the Hilton Head Island Municipal Court tomorrow. HHI is in Beaufort County, SC.
