Legal Question in DUI Law in South Carolina
Minor in possession
I was given a Minor in possission ticket in Chesterfield county, S.C for an empty beer can in the bed of my truck. I had no idea it was even back there. The can was never touched or put in front of the camera on the cop car. Can I be issued an m.i.p for this? I can't afford to lose my license because I am in college! What should I do?

Re: Minor in possession
Talk with an attorney about this and be sure to tell him/her that the can was empty. You can ask for Alcohol Diversion. A program where the arrest records are errased and you do not lose your license.
