How much is a open container citation on a sidewalk?

Question

How much is a open container citation on a sidewalk?



Answer

The penalty varies depending on whether you were under the age of 21 at the time of arrest/citation. The fine and penalty can be as much as $1,000 and 6 months in jail. Luckily, there are a number of defenses available for this citation. Additionally, if the citation was in Orange County and you have no prior offenses, then you may be eligible for a deferment program to avoid a conviction on your record.
