Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York
Consumption of Alcohol in Public
I received a ticket for alcohol consumption in public at a Yankees game in the bronx. I'm ok with paying the fine - what I want to know is do I need to go to court or is it possible to mail in the fine. If I have to go to court - what can i expect when i go?

Re: Consumption of Alcohol in Public
Do you understand that this will be a petty disorderly persons offense on your criminal record for life.
Yes, you can go to court & plea guilty. Any attorney would advice you against doing so. A attorney can go to court on your behalf & try to plea bargin your matter to a lower offense where you would not have a criminal record.
If you are interested in hiring a lawyer & would like to discuss this matter with me, I can be reached at 201-646-9600.
Good Luck.
