My son was visiting Texas from out of state and was cited for disorderly conduct. Can he plead guilty and pay the fine without having to return on the court date?
It depends on his age in most courts. A juvenile is usually required ot appear with a parent. Most courts accept payment in lieu of appearance but keep in mind that the payment will result in a conviction.
