It sounds like you have a decent defense. If they are summary offenses you are entitlted to a trial at the District Court Level and if not successful you have a right to a trial in common pleas court. I offer free consultations.

In addition, using the "F" word isn't obscene unless it was used in a sexual manner...which is not what you are describing. That's a bogus charge.
