I live in Massachusetts and I got a charge of possession of a small bag of marijuana. I have no priors or anything. I have to go to court for a hearing in a month. I am 17 years old. Do I need a legal parent or guardian with me? I was told I could go by myself or possibly with an older brother who is 20. I just don't want my parents finding out. The cops told me it might get dismissed anyway when I get there.
