Hi,
I was recently drunk and arrested for public intoxication and disorderly conduct in California. I spent the night in jail and was released in the morning with a court summons for the 20th January.
I am very concerned with what charges i face and also the likely punishment. It is my first offence. Is it advisable for me to get a lawyer or attorney or will it have no effect.
I am a UK citizen currently on a J1 visa which i need to renew for next semester. Will any charges i face affect my visa status or likelihood of getting it renewed.
Thanks in advance
