What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Ga
In June 2008, I was given a ticket for loitering for drugs. In July 2008, I was sent to rehab, lived in a recovery house for 6 months, and have stayed clean from my addiction to crack/cocaine.
I plead not guilty to this charge in 2009. Since getting the ticket I have stayed clean for 2.5 years, will complete a degree in Social Work this year, maintained a 3.84 GPA and volunteer at a rape crisis center.
I am already on probation in another county for possession charge. I am up for an internship in another county at the DA office drug court. I got a court date for Jan 2011.
My question is... Should I plead mercy to the court. ( I dont' want anything else on my record) and tell the truth about what I was doing at the time, show proof that I have changed my life ( recommendation letters, college transcripts, etc) or try to fight this.
I can't afford the $900 fine.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
