My question involves criminal law for the state of: Michigan
I am a student at the University of Michigan majoring in Mechanical Engineering and 21 years of age. I was arrested for open intoxicants while walking back to my friends house. My question has to do with pleading guilty or not guilty. I have never been arrested before so this is my first get together with the police from Ann Arbor, MI.
I have to appear in court in 2 weeks and wanted some advice on how to proceed-The police told me that this would be on my record for 6 months and taken off after that period of time. They also told me I might have to take a alcohol awareness class or something to that nature.
Thanks for your advice and help in advance.![]()
