Get a layer and dress nice. Take the charges seriously to show the judge and court respect any attempt to win the courts favor is worth it. Remember it dosent matter if you dress like a stiff with a suite and tie on because if you get thrown in jail they are gonna' take your cloths off anyway when they delouse you and give you your prison fatigues. Try to look like an executive so you look like the layers and appear to be a intelligent good citizen.
