I live in Florida and am a 22 year old female.
My friend and I were pulled over for DUI. She was driving
and I was the only passenger. We were both drunk. The officer searched my purse without my permission and found 1.5 grams of marijuana. I was arrested for possesion, and they let her (the driver) go. I have a prior arrest at 16 for a small quantity of pot but the case was dropped. Do I need a lawyer at the arainment(sp) and how do I get a public defender if I cannot afford a lawyer. (I am very poor)I don't want to risk losing my D/L for 1 year so should I take the plea offer? Any help will be appreciated.
