What is the name of your state? Ohio
Last night I was charged with public intoxication. I was very intoxicated, I wasn't given a breathalyser probably because I was obviously drunk. However, I was sitting in my car, which was parked in the lot of a movie theater. I knew I was too drunk to drive, so I put my seat back and decided to sleep and sober up. I was arrested even though I was sitting in my car. Does my own car count as being in public? If not, what steps do I have to take to fight this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
