Legal Question in Criminal Law in Minnesota
open bottle
I was ticketed with an open bottle
passenger ticket. It wasnt my bottle
and i even told the officers it wasnt
mine there was 4 other kids in the
car and he was going to give it to the
driver so I took it instead for him but
I never confessed to the bottle being
mine after telling them to give me
the ticket they asked if it was my
bottle and I told them no and there
was no evidence to the bottle being
mine considering two other kids blew
numbers and got minors and i myself
blew zeros and the bottle was
nowhere near my spot in the car and
they still gave it to me. Also i have no
record and have never gotten even
as much as a speeding ticket. Will i
be able to reverse this and get it off
my record?

Re: open bottle
If you go to court and fight it, and refuse to plead guilty, you could keep your record clean of a guilty plea and conviction. Ask for an outcome without a plea. Be willing to pay.
Re: open bottle
A stay of Prosecution would not be an unusual resolution to such a case. With a Stay of Prosecution, the charge will stay off your record. However, you may be required to pay some prosecution costs.
You could certainly benefit from the assistance of counsel in such a matter. For a consultation call 612.240.8005.
