I was in New York City on October 16 with two of my friends (ages 18, 18, and 20) on the way to a Yankees game and we had open beer bottles on the train. A police officer issued us pink citations for open container (10-125b). In order to avoid having to go to court, I opted to plea guilty by mail which is only available to people who get an open container summons. I mailed in a plea form I printed off the NYC Criminal Court website, my summons, and a $25 check. As of this date, my check still has not been cashed. I followed all the instructions and mailed everything in within 10 days of the summons being issued. Help!!
