your best bet is to go in front of the magistrate and plea guilty and ask for a 100 hours of community service to keep this off your record.
you have not a chance of beating this since you have a witness against you.
the fine can be any where from $500 to $2500 depending where you were. (if you decide to fight it and lose you will be faced with the heavest fines posible plus cort cost)
It is best to say you have learned that this is a mistake and you wish to make amends.
chances are good that she will be faced with picking up cigerett buts. out of a park some where.
15% of all forest fires are caused by cigarett butts
30% of all house fires are caused by cigarett butts
I am not against any one who smokes, I did smoke at one time and for the most part quit. I still use a pipe or cigar on seldom ocations.
Please if you are going to smoke, do so responcibly, just like drinking, you can effect the lives of those around you, weather it be human or animal and plant.
rule of thumb, if you carried it in to the woods or on the water then you are expected to carry it out of the woods or off the water.
this is not so much a moral issue as it is a personal constitutional issue.
just like flinging a fish hook, dont axidently hook some one in the eye while casting, pay attention to what you are doing and be deliberate in your actions.
