Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia

If you looked like you were drinking, smelled like you were drinking, acted like you were drinking, etc., the officer likely had enough to breathalize and charge you. Sorry, but the court is going to side with a cop 9 out of 10 times. I would STRONGLY recommend that you hire a Georgia criminal defense attorney who can help you understand your right and options. It's your future, so it's worth spending a little money on a lawyer -- if this goes on your record, it will follow you around forever.

Phil is correct.

First of all, you should not be drinking you are under 21

Second of all, you should not be in night clubs where they serve alcohol

Third of all, officer, due to his experience, and probably being an off duty police officer hired specifically to keep underaged patrons out of the club or to arrest "drinking" under age patrons, he saw you there, smelled your breath, saw your blodshot eyes and heard your slurred speach - ergo, probable cause (you being inside was probable cause enough)

Fourth of all, and most importantly you MUST hire a good criminal defense attorney ASAP DO NOT do go to court alone.
