They are both misdemeanor offenses.
A MIP ticket stands for Minor in Possession and is typically issued to individuals under the legal drinking age who are found to possess or consume alcohol. It is a citation that carries penalties and consequences related to underage drinking.
In Syracuse: Possession of Alcohol by Person Under 21: • Up to $50 fine and/or completion of an alcohol awareness program and/or up to 30 hours of community service
The fine for minor in possession in the state of Oklahoma can be as much as $300 for a first violation. A fine of $600 is possible for a second offense.
A technicality in the ticket is not going to be a reason for the person to claim that the ticket is invalid and disregard it. You still have to follow up.
If you're a minor they will tell your parents and they will have to go to court and/or pay a small fine ($50-150).
Mine was on School grounds and was $49
Just got one an hour ago for 1,092.50
If it was a ticket, there is no limit. Once the ticket is used they have been notified of the violation. The local authorities determine if they are going to prosecute.
As long as you have not been in trouble with the law before, you should be eligible for diversion. I got charged for MIP/Open containers and my diversion fees are $180 (I can make payments). Court fee is $48, but I don't have to show up as long I go to the diversion office and meet with someone. Community service and an online diversion class are also required.
