Sterling Law

Last night I was at a party with my friends. I had two beers, and my friends and I went outside on the street to smoke a cigarette. (My friends and I are 18). An officer approached us, asked what we were smoking, which was only cigarettes, and then asked if we were drinking. None of us were drunk, but the smell of beer was on our breaths. The officer questioned us, searched us, then used a breathalyzer. I had a 0.063. The officer pulled me aside and said that if I don't want to be charged I must help them find drug dealers at my school. The problem is, I honestly don't know any drug dealers, except a good friend, lets say his name is Bob. If I participate in the cop's sting operation I'm afraid that Bob or one of his friends will come after me. What can I do?

For govt. background checks, under the police record question for "arrested for, charged with, or convicted of any offense" in the past 7 years, should the charge/incident be listed if it occurred 8 years ago, eventhough the charge was subsequently reduced to negligent driving 1st degree 2 years later and within the 7 year window? What counts, the date of the incident/charge or the date when the charge got reduced?
What counts is how it is interpreted by the government employer. "Were you ...convicted of any offense ... in the past...
I did a plea for reckless driving for blowing .06...I've done the 10 VASAP classes and 9 AA classes. Now VASAP instructed me to do one counseling intake. When I did the intake the counselor recommended 6 months of two day a week counseling. cost over 2k..when I did my plea I did not know I would have to do 6months on top of the VASAP classes and AA classes Ive already taken. Can I appeal the counseling? I've called the PO 8 times and still no call back. I don't want to in non compliance..thanks
You can ask the court that put you on probation to modify the terms. But, they are probably going to go with what the...
While I was in court on a DUI charge and at the end of the trial the judge ask the Common Wealth Attorney what my driving record looked like. Her response in a very soft tone was “Mr. XXXXX’s driving record is spotless” then she went on to say loudly “But he was convicted of Violating a protective order in 2007!” I knew at the time this was a lie but didn’t say anything. This information I believe increased the sentence the judge handed down. I went to the court house the next day and got a certified copy which states the charge for violating a protective order was “Dismissed”. Is this something I need to bring up to someone?
First thing is, don't call the DA a liar. She could have been mistaken. You should file a motion to reconsider the...

I was convicted of a DUI two years ago in my home state, I met the requirements of that state and had my license re-instated. I relocated to Virginia and went to get a DL, and after a week with a Virginia DL, received notice my privledges were suspended for another year + for the DUI I had recieved in my home state.
I would get a Virginia attorney to look into this for you. In Florida the administrative process has been able to...
