Walk It Through: The Party Before Graduation

Alcohol under 21 at a Nevada party, a friend who needs help, and what happens to the record.

At a party the week before graduation, police arrive. A student under 21 is holding a can of beer in the yard.

Two things a person in this spot might do. Picking one shows what the law says about it.

One party and one citation. A fake identification, driving after drinking under 21, and a case in juvenile court with its own sealing rules are not worked through here.

A practice walkthrough, not a prediction of how any real one will go. Legal information, not legal advice.
