What is the name of your state? NC. My 18yr old son was given a ticket by an off duty police officer who was not in uniform. Noise from a party my son was attending, awoke a police officer living in the same apartment bldg. He came over to the party out of bed and out of uniform and issued my son and a friend of his, tickets for underage possession of a malt beverage. He also had them submit to a breartalizer test. Was this action legal on his part? Are the tickets valid? Would the issuance of tickets, under these circumstances, hold up in court?
