Question: I got a ticket for a MIP. They let me just pay a ticket when i went to court without pleading guilty or anything. I paid it without even seeing the judge. Will I lose my license? Or did i not even have to see a judge?
Answer: Essentially what you did is plead guilty because you paid the fine. Sometimes you can just pay the fine and not see the judge.
If the judge wanted to suspend your license he or she could have done it. If it was suspended, you would have received some papers from the judge or from the Motor Vehicle Department. If you didn't receive anything from the Court or MVD, then your license probably isn't suspended. Be careful though, if you are caught for this crime again, you will lose your license until you are 18. (ARS 28-3320(7)).

I just recently recieved an MIP and a charge for unlawful posession of marijuana. other that a fat fine, the cop mentioned that my license will probably be suspended, but my court date isnt for another month. Does anyone know it its still legal for me to drive? is the judge the only one with the authority to suspend it?

I went to this party last night. The cops busted it up and everyone there was seventeen. They did take all of our information but they didn't write anyone tickets. Our parents just came and picked each of us up. They didn't even question me when I walked away saying that was my ride. Did I get an MIP? What might happen from here?
