My question involves a crime that occurred in the state of: California
I have never been in contact with the police, (except for routine traff. stops) or been in any sort of trouble, until recently when I was arrested because two male friends decided to break into a house while I was left in their car. They fled the scene but have now been arrested.
I am being charged as an accessory and because there were three of us, it is considered conspiracy. There were also drugs in the glove box of the vehicle. Although I am not the owner, I was in the car and should have known the contents. So I have a third charge, possession of a controlled substance. (this may be dropped?) CPC : 459, 182, 11350
I am wondering what my maximum sentence would be and what time I would most likely serve... I'm going to keep the idea of MAX in my head so I'm not surprised if that is what I receive. I'm also clueless about all of this and I'm wondering if I should bring a lawyer with me to my first court date?
PLEASE help
