I am 21 in MI, I have an amazingly BAD driving record, i think there are already a couple speeding tickets one of them was supposed to be reckless driving. Over this past summer i received 7 tickets one right after another some a couple at a time. I have 2 window tints, 1 equipment defective, 2 speeding both 1-10 over, 1 no proof of Insurance, and one no proof of registration. Whatever my excuses are because of course I don't agree with some of them. I guess i got a court date for because i haven't paid on any of them, and i missed it. They issued a warrant and on my way to work the other night pulled me over, driving, and gave me another ticket driving on suspended, and took me to jail. My friend bailed me out that night due to a bail bondsman. She payed him 100.00 to get me out that night. My bail was set at 324.00, and i don't have the money to pay that by Wed. which is my court date. I really am broke, i work but i am also a mom of a 3 1/2 year old whom doesn't have a dad. we live with my parents. I have never had any other issues with my record other than this, and of course my driving record being a mess. What is gonna happen? or what could happen? i cannot afford an attorney, so i am kind of scared because i will be walking in almost empty handed, i think i have about 40 dollars to bring.
 
1. You might be doing some time. You also owe your friend the $100.00.

2. You need to start behaving responsibly with your car.

3. If you want to fight the tickets, you're going to have to post bail. Otherwise you're going to have to plead guilty.

4. If you've got no defense to the charges, plead guilty and take your lumps. The court will work with you to set up a payment plan on the fines.

5. It's possible you could request community service in place of paying some of the fines. Given what you're describing, expect a lot of community service time.

6. Good luck. And keep it under the speed limit from now on -- stay out of trouble!
 
your going to jail! for a 21 year old and having a baby you sure act like an adolescent! you are going to be lucky if they don't take your child away for being so irresponsible! you will be given a court appointed lawyer,,, usually someone right out of school ,,, he will not be able to help you because you have let things get out of hand and haven't even tried to straighten up!
