Legal Question in Criminal Law in Michigan

How should I defend myself against my MIP? I got an MIP earlier this summer at prom. Someone in my group was too drunk to walk in and the administration noticed and got the police involved then the police proceeded to breathalyze everyone else in the group because of that one person. I blew a .08 and was given an MIP ticket. I've already had my arraignment and pretrial and I pleaded not guilty. I am going into my next court date without a lawyer cause I cannot afford one and don't qualify for a court appointed one. How should I defend myself based on what happened?

I don't see a defense. You should borrow money for an attorney or try to work out a deal with the prosecutor. This would end up on your permanent criminal record.
