My son attends Vincennes University in VIncennes, Indiana. He was caught with two college students across the Indiana state Line in Illinois with marijuana. He was arrested, car impounded, questioned and driven back to college a few hours later. He has a court date the end of February. What can he expect when he goes to court at that time.

If he was charged with a Misdemeanor level offense, he can expect to be asked whether he would like to hire an attorney, request a Public Defender, or represent himself.  If your son is in college and receives financial aid, you may want to make sure any disposition involving cannabis does not affect his financial aid status.
