Your friend should speak with a local criminal defense attorney as soon as possible. If this is your friend's first offense, her options increase and she may be able to participate in some form of pre-trial diversion program or first offender's program.

Yes, depending on his history and the jurisdiction, he may qualify for pre-trial diversion.
