Question: I was just given a ticket for having sex in my car in a public park. The officer told me & the guy he would ticket us under disorderly conduct for the city in Georgia. This is a first time offense for both of us & we thought they would just tell us to move along but they gave us the ticket. The law says up to $1000 fine & a year in jail. But if I opt for the fine, how much will I most likely have to pay? I'm in college & don't have a job so I definitely do not have the money to pay for this ticket.

Answer: Don't do the crime IF you cannot pay the fine. You need to appear in court, and beg the judge to give you a low fine. You should recognize that after the judge gives you a low fine, the offense will appear on your criminal history as a guilty plea. So, you wil be explaining it potential employers for the rest of your life - how you could not spring for a hotel room.
