What is the name of your state? Florida
I was recently Pulled over in florida for running a stop sign. I was driving with a suspended license but, however it was in the process of being re-instated after finishing my driving class. THe officers that pulled the car over said that they smelled marijuana in the car and asked if anyone had any. One person admited and was taken out of the car and searched. He was not arrested, and everyone else in the car was taken out and searched. Officers found numerous roaches in the center console upon searching my car.
I was arrested and charged with possesion of 5 grams and driving with a suspended license with knowledge. Its my first time being arrested and I have two seperate court dates.
I was told by someones "lawyer" friend that my best bet is pleading no contest because I was not read my rights.... but im pretty sure I should higher a lwayer.
Im just looking for any advice that will benefit me being that its my first time being arrested and Im away from home at college so Im on my own. any advice would be great I have no idea what im facing right now thanks.
