The judge is in no way required to accept your offer of going into a drug program in lieu of a jail or prison sentence. What you need is a good lawyer who can attempt to get you into a program and ameliorate the problems with a blackout period. From your zip code it looks like you live in Rio Vista I have 28 years experience as a criminal defense attorney and I have offices in Pittsburg and San Francisco, While my phone does not accept jail calls, you or a friend may call me at 415-336-7534 if you want to hire a lawyer.
