When I start applying for jobs after I attend graduate school, will they look at my misdemeanor?

is there prayer for judgment in california? will it work on a misdemeanor.

I was pulled over for a "speed contest." he wrote me down as "40-50mph" in a 50 mph zone in which he put down the wrong speed limit as 40mph. should I admit guilt and give reasons why I should be given a lesser sentence? I plan on asking him first thing if a lesser sentence (speeding) is...

i got the same ticket for a very similar situation. ~60mph in a 50. this was my first ticket ever, so i'm gonna hopefully it reduced to a speeding ticket through just talking to the DA myself. no lawyer or anything.

I have a misdemeanor to worry about, and I will be talking to the DA next time probably w/o a lawyer. Would I provide the evidence (the cop wrote down the wrong speed limit) then? Also, what are the chances of a reduced sentence through the DA? He said "anything said here can be used against...

should i contact a public attorney on the day that i go into court to make my plea? are they free?

i'm guessing i can't go to traffic school for this one...

it's a misdemeanor in california.. i was hoping i can fight it by mail. according to the ticket, i was going around speed limit, and the officer wrote down the wrong speed limit for the area (he wrote 40) when it is really 50mph. in addition, he wrote down heavy traffic, when in reality...

i received a "speed contest" violation today. the officer marked it down as a misdeameanor rather than an infraction. what does this mean? in addition, he wrote down that the speed limit in the area as 40 mph ("veh. limit" AND "safe" - i'm guessing that this is what it means-"speed limit"...
