- Q. As passenger in a vehicle should I be held accountable for something that was found in the vehicle during a traffic stop
- A: The simple answer to your question is to have a consultation with a lawyer and eventually hire a private defense firm to represent you.
This is very important because it is very common that situations like this happen and you are going to want private attention with a lawyer who is there to represent you.

All requirements means you have completed the jail, counseling, IID (if ordered in an extreme DUI), FINES, and anything else ordered by the judge. Usually most people are on a payment plan for the fines at the time they apply for a Set Aside. If the fines are not completely paid off, then the application will be denied. Remember, this is an application process and is not automatic. There are some requirements about whether you have applied for prior Set Asides and some other disqualifying reasons that a judge will not approve a Set Aside.
