My friend had a PC647(F)-M for public intoxication charged. He was blacked out and put in jail for the night (maybe the drunk tank). I'm trying to help him figure this out and if he should try to just pay the bill or go to court to plea guilty or plea not guilty. What is the best method to reduce the charge from a misdemeanor and not have it show up on his record? Since it is his first offence I heard its the best to plea guilty and see if the judge will lower the charge, is this true? What will happen in court on the court date?
Thanks
When your friend goes to court, the court will appoint a lawyer to represent him . The best advice I can give him is to discuss the matter with the lawyer and take the lawyer'a advice.
