here was my original question
" i recently got pulled over and after being pulled over, the police searched my car and found marijuana on my friend, by being a good friend,i took the blame for it, so i have a ticket for possession, it know its a misdemeanor but i just wnat to know what will happen when i go to the court. Everyone tells me that they just fine you the maximum amount, which is $100, is there anything else that could happen? Also what happens when i show up to my court date?"
people have told me that i would have to deal with the 100 dollar fine since it was under an ounce but here is the kicker, i just read that if i was a "minor" which is under 21 years that i could get my license suspended, and that would not be good. My question is...
what are the chances that i would have my license suspended? I'm 19 years old since sept 6, it is my first offense, and my citation happened within fremont, please someone tell me some good news.

depending on what charge you have (simple possession or possession within a car) can change what happens to you. Can you tell us which one you were charged with?

Most likely your punishment will be a small fine and some sort of community service with possible probation. I had a 20 year old friend get caught in a car with a small amount of marijuana and that's pretty much all of what the court (CA) gave her. She also had alcohol in her purse as well, so she got an MIP and lost her licence for a year anyway. The part of this whole thing that hurt her the most was that she lost almost all of her federal financial aid for college because of the marijuana conviction.

ok a minor is under 18 not 21 to start with. It all depends on the judge, usualy you will only get the fine but yes they could suspend your license
