He got a ticket for no reason!
Hi, everyone. My boyfriend who is 18 just got a ticket for being with a minor who was in posesion of weed. Although my boyfriend did NOT have anything on him he got a ticket. Can an officer really do that when he had done nothing wrong? Or could the ticket be from being with the minor? Also, my boyfriend has a past record, could this have somthing to do with it? And will he go to jail?

I'm guessing here but the ticket your boyfriend got is most likely an appearance summons, ordering him to appear in court. They are sometimes referred to as a desk appearance ticket. For whatever reason the Officer had it was not felt an arrest was required and a summons to appear would suffice. Failure to appear will result in an arrest warrant being issued.
As to whether the Officer can issue the ticket for the reasons you gave. The fact that the Officer did says they can.

Well, unfortunately they can. Its hard to prove he wasn't going to be sharing the weed I suppose. If he has a past record, that doesn't help him any.
I would imagine if he just got a ticket he will pay it and that will be the end of it. If he were going to jail I would have thought they would have arrested him on the spot.
Keep in mind I really don't know what the laws are like wherever you live. This is simply an educated guess.
