My question involves criminal law for the state of: California
I am 18 years old and a full time student currently attending California Junior College. At the beginning of Augest my girlfriend and I were caught with alcohol at a California park by a few sheriffs. I claimed the alcohol as mine and recieved a misdemeanor citation for minor in posession of alcohol 25662 (a), which is a non-correctable violation. This is also my first offense.
My court date is scheduled for Wednesday September 24th, on which I have two VERY important calsses.
Is it possible to change my court date to a friday?
(since I have classes monday-thursday)
Is being a full time student a valid excuse to change a court date?
What kind of charges should I expect for my actions?
