my 16 yr old son was served w/a citation, from local police, to appear in court for illegal possession of alcohol by a minor. he was breathalized (was 0.03) & given the citation, which HE had to sign, but i was never called or notified.
i am wondering what he could be facing for punishment and if i should consult an attorney. im confused as to why he wasnt taken to the police station, if he committed a crime. he has never been in any trouble before & i am on completely foreign ground here.
