What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? South Dakota
This weekend I got a MIC. Since I'm 19, they gave me a yellow summons with a court date and sent me on my way. I have never been in trouble before, and I have no idea how this process works. So my questions are:
1. Will my parents find out? I can go to court and pay the fines/do probation all on my own. I want to keep them out of this.
2. Will they send me anything via mail? I don't live at the address on my license, so if they do, I will not receive it.
3. Should I just go in and plead guilty? I blew a 0.058 and admitted to drinking. I would rather just get this all over with.
4. I don't have court for a whole month. I just want to get this done and over with. Is there any way I can get a sooner court date?
Thanks.
