Legal help
    #315727 - 11/15/09 12:57 AM (15 years, 23 days ago)

Remember when I got in trouble for the whole insulation/public drunkeness episode. Ya well I was given 4 months to pay off my 660 dollar fine. So far I have only been able to pay 60 dollars. The judge said he could give me an extension on paying. But I think he thought I would be paying more than like 15 dollars a month. I really dont need to go to jail. I'm trying to get school done with and thats why I dont have a job right now. What should I tell the judge when I go ask for an extension in a month? I hate court. It makes me anxious and shit.

I know you need food and shit but you should have just paid it when you can, i've been in your situation before believe me.

Ask the court if you can work it off, that's what I did with my $1100+ in fines.

I worked for 9 days, about 6 hours/day and it was easy as shit!

It's called STS (Sentence To Serve) around here.  Look into it man.  It's the best way to go about it I promise!

It's not what you tell him it's when your telling it. This way it looks like your at least trying to do something about it now rather then waiting till the last second like everybody else he sees. May use you as a example and give ya a decent extension on the time or something, Plus since you have a month leeway they can't lock ya up right on the spot giving ya some running time :tongue::wink:

Yeah, don't feel like you have to wait to see if there are any other options.  Plus it'll give you a bump in rep to the judge if you are active about paying your debt to society.

You so could have beat this thing if you would have taken the advice the first time around!

But anyways, chances are the judge will not send you to jail, unless he is having a really, really bad day. I have been to a few show cause hearings over the years and have never been sent to jail. The important thing is to make small payments! Listen to Inverted and call to see if they have a work program that you could do to pay off the fines. Most courts do.

if you were a total dead beat then maybe your outcome would be different. I man not paying and not trying. Even the dead beats get a few months to get their shit straight.

You'll be ok my friend!

First thing you should do is quit letting your anger and frustration get in the way of good common sense!  As it was pointed out, they're not going to throw you in jail until your deadline at the earliest anyway... so contact the courts and tell them honestly that you are in dire straights without enough money to pay your fine on time, but that you would like the option to pay your debt by working it off with community service if possible.  They'll either say OK and set your work times or they'll tell you no dice, see you on the deadline and hope you pay.

I also don't understand why you being in school means that you can't also get a job to pay off your fine?  I see how much time you spend on this here website.  There is no reason you couldn't take some time off from the Growery and go make some change.  Take some responsibility, be proactive for yourself and quit playing the victim!

Geo, I know you mean well. But just because I'm on this site doesn't mean I'm not doing homework/studying. Plus no, no job for right now I have to much anxiety and there is no where to work. I've tried giving plasma but they wont take it because I'm allergic to some thing that they dont even use. If you don't know what my life is like then don't try to give me advice on things please. Never once have I played the victim. The only reason I started this thread was to ask if I was most likely going to jail or not. And what to ask the judge. Not get judged. Again if you don't know my circumstances please don't lend your "advice". And I was joking when I said the whole fuck society thing.

You seriously don't have anybody that could let you borrow $600?  Like some former/future employer or something?  What school are you at?  I could make $600 in a week selling drugs on campus if I really wanted to (I guess you would need the initial investment).
My email is down right now but there is a legit website that pays you (students) to take surveys and shit.  All online. I'll find the link.  I doubt working your fine off through the system is a good deal.  And you will have to work with a bunch of crackheads and shit.  You would be better off finding a real job I think.
