Underage Drinking Citation negotiated down to Disorderly Conduct in Berks County Summary Appeal

by | May 18, 2011 | Criminal Law |

Today I represented a Kutztown University student charged with violating 18 Pa.CSA Section 6308 – the Underage Drining statute. The penalty for such an offense includes fines and a 6 month driver’s license suspension. Additionally, many employers and professional licensing boards frown upon alcohol related convictions. In this particular case my client had represented himself at the District Judge level and had been found guilty despite the apparent weaknesses in the Commonwealth’s case.bouncy castle canada

Wisely, he decided to appeal and seek Counsel in his case before the Berks County Court of Common Pleas. I was able to negotiate the matter with the Assistant District attarney assigned to the case. Thankfully, we came to a resolution that allowed my client to keep his driver’s license and avoid the adverse employment effects of an alcohol related conviction.uk inflatable slides
