I suggest

You go to the court before your hearing date, sit through a few sessions to find out what DA looks like.  And find out how arraingment works in real life. 

Yes, DA is same as prosecutor. 

Or you could hire a lawyer, who knows what DA looks like in person and can stop DA outside the court room. 

You have to spend either money for a lawyer or time for your own research.  You cannot just show up cold.  I suggest you find a lawyer for the first time if this is first time you've been to court. and being charged with a misdameanor (not an infraction).

我怎么觉得这种刑事案件,一定要找律师啊。还是misdemeanor不会影响以后找工作什么的? -N.- 给 N. 发送悄悄话 N. 的博客首页 (0 bytes) () 04/22/2016 postreply 19:38:56
