in the state of Alabama when it is a misdemeanor looks like the prosecutors can do what they damm well please. this is normal. almost all local courts are nothing more than collection agents it is an ambush tactic used everywhere. your lawyer will do nothing because his or her primary goal is not to irritate the judge in any way. they are more concerned with getting you into a program or having you put on probation to make friends with the judge ane the whole system. there is no more justice in america unless you have big wads of cash.
