What is the name of your state? Arizona
I was recently cited for misdemeaners: possesion of Marijuana and paraphernalia.
Questions: The para charge was for a Kodak film canister that was carrying the marijuna. Can that really be considered paraphernalia?
Will going to court get my fine reduced?
Since this is a first offence, what are the chances of it being expunged?
Is there a prosecuter involved in these cases, or is it just a judge that decides? Is there a plea bargain I should seek? Do I need a lawyer for that?
A friend that was with me was also cited for the same charges in addition to possesion of a narcotic (cocaine). There was very little of the the narcotic in possesion. How does that charge effect the same questions I posed for myself?
Thank you for your time and help.
