What is the name of your state? Colorado,
I have 2 charges "Careless driving" & "Hit and Run". My left mirror bumped her arm while I made a left turn and I passed her away. It was a Green right and she was still standing there. But she called police on me later. Although I didn't get arrested, I'm supposed to go to court for summon next month. My husband insists that I don't need to hire a lawyer. Since she doesn't get injured seriously, DA may drop my charge, he thinks. However, on 2009 I got arrested for a DUI. I had no criminal record before. DA offered me a deferred FELONY provided 2 yrs probation, because I ran away from patrol cars when I was pulled over. Although I faced a felony charge of eluding, my probation ended in July 6, 2012. I have such a history. Do I have any possibility that DA drop my case??? Do I have to hire a lawyer to go to court for my first summon next month?
