    Default Underage Possession of Alcohol

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Maryland

    I am a 19 year old male who recently received an Underage Possession of Alcohol citation while tailgating a college football game. The information of the citation was taken off of my student ID. The ID includes only my University ID number. Also on the citation is my height, weight, name, and on campus address. However, my last name is spelled wrong on the citation. I was wondering if this is enough to have the citation void.

    Default Re: Underage Possession of Alcohol --Void?

    A simple handwriting error is not enough to void the citation, no.

    Basically a "harmless error" and a "misnomer", not prejudical enough to move the court for dismissal, but you can try anything.
