Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

Is there anyway to pay off the community labor instead of going ? I work full time and have no time to go. I have 60 days of 8hr day labor. Can I pay this off and If so where do I go ? I got a PD instead of a lawyer.

First of all a PD is a lawyer, often a very good lawyer. Any problems you have completing your community labor should be discussed with your lawyer.
