What is the name of your state? PA
I was in a car accident with my car. I attended a party that involved alcohol. I was sleeping in the back of my car when my friend asked to drive it. I agreed and continued to sleep in the back of the car. Needless to say, we had an accident but there were no serious injuries. The cop did not breathalyze nor blood test me. My friend, who went to the hospital to get checked out was blood tested and was DUI. I am being taken to court on charges of uderage drinking. On my first court appearance, the cop never showed. The judge demanded a continuance as she said that I knew how to come to that area to drink. So, here I go again back to court. My lawyer asked for a plea down from the cop who agreed to a discorderly conduct but, the judge won't accept it. She has a very tough reputation. My question is if I lose, what are my chances to win on an appeal since there is no physical evidence? Will this affect my car insurance irates f my license is suspended?
