What is the name of your state? New York
Here's the story i hope someone can help me!
I was recently pulled over on grounds near a lock-canel (Mohawk River). Myself and 2 friends were going to smoke marijuana. First off we didnt smoke anything yet and a cop pulls into the parking area of the lock. He comes up to us searches us as he see's my friend in the back seat has crumbles of weed on him. So neways there was a bowl in the car(not my car however) and so the cop searched it found the bowl. I owned up to it not only because it was mine but mostly because of my friend i mean it was his car if no one fessed up it would be pinned on him and thats not right in my book. So neways he gave me a ticket for "Unlawful Possession of Marijuana" actually he spelled it "Marihuana" But yet the officer knew i only had a bowl nothing else was mine. So should the ticket say possession of paraphernalia or does that go under the ticket for possession of marijuana? And how do you tell if it is a mistimeaner? It doesn't say it anywhere on the ticket. Please if anyone can help me in any way i just want to know what to expect in court and if the ticket is wrong in which case should i go to the station and ask them to change it? This is my first offense ever. Clean record
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
