yeah your under 18, you pretty much dont have many rights, it all goes to your parents. congrats on getting busted :P

[Juggalotus]

oh and as far as if its mandatory, well he dont HAVE to call your parents, but it has to be immediate (sp?) family. (such as guardians)

Well heres what happened, plz take time to read it, i would really appreciate it, and give me your opinion
me and a friend of mine drove to a friends, about 15 miles from where I live. We got caught hotboxing my friends car, and the officers pulled us over, and put us all in a car, they didnt handcuff us, but they did write our information on what looked like a white rectangular card, or paper. They took the weed, pipes, bubler, and scale, the officers then told us our rights, and then told us they werent going to arrest us, or take us in, but they did say they were giong to write a report and then I would get a court notice in the mail. After that, they let us go, which two of us are minors but they didnt call our parents. The funny thing about it is, is they didnt give us any tickets or anything, even though they said we were going to be charged.
My question is, do you need to have a ticket to go to court? If so why didnt they write us one? Were they just trying to scare us?? When one of the officers took my friends bubbler, he showed it to the other female officer and her response to it was "Niiice" so, do u think these cops cud have just been fucking with us??

Chances are since ur a minor..and im guessing like 16? and they looked up ur record which was probably clear. and seen you still had a brain to use. So they could of just messed with you and confinscated all your stuff. But they did write it up and probably put it on record, so if it happens again, you'll be charged with your second crime, and the first one. Its what they do in Ohio, so they may do it their.
