Fines for underage drinking increase
Judge McRee in-formed the Court last Wednesday that we are changing the way we deal with Underage Alcohol. Would you please inform the person who could let the students know about this as the Court has gotten very strict with the underage issue. If found guilty, court cost or pretrial diversions, the fine will be $407.00, they will also be required to complete the Integrity project program (six weeks of one day classes) which is another $300.00, and will be on probation for a period of 6 months at a cost of $39.00 per month, and all cases will go before the Judge. So you are now looking at a cost of at the very least $941.00.
