Legal Question in Criminal Law in Maryland

I was issued a citation and ordered to appear in court for possession of marijuana under 10 grams. I was unaware that my friend had it. While looking for a place to stay at the beach we were pulled over in a hotel parking lot. The car was searched and the weed was confiscated and everyone received a ticket and was told we would have to appear in court. Even though I was was not driving I was given a citation due to the fact that I was the primary driver of the car. Is there anyway I can evade the misdemeanor charge or get the case dismissed all together?
