true... I just think the fine is excessive. Just looked on the court's website.
simple possession of marijuana is a $215 ticket payable by mail. That's
$20 cheaper than my ticket for going 4mph above the speed limit.

guess I'll just pay it.... the lady on the phone told me that even if my ticket
is dismissed in court, they will still charge me $93 for administrative and
dismissal fees. (wait, what? I still have to pay even if I'm found not guilty?)
