MIP -Michigan

[andersonbell]

My 20 year old niece got an MPI in Michigan. She went to court today and they advised her to plead guiltly because she does not want this on her records because she wants to be a teacher. Should she have plead guilty?

If she pleads guilty, it will be on her record. She should have had an attorney.

Even though it's too late, she should see an attorney to see if it's possible to have the record expunged after completing whatever penalty she was given.

The judge and no she did not have a lawyer

 

[andersonbell]

they told her she has a 5000 bond and has to go back on 9/28

Again with they

You should really have your niece post

She should get lawyer

If she has to appear again, perhaps she can change her plea. I don't know, and really you don't either.

I'm guessing that it's sentencing - which means that it may not be too late to get an attorney.
