What do i do in court??

I was pulled for a headlight out. I was driving on a suspended, and I knew that i had a failure to appear from a previous driving on suspended. I spent the night in jail. I am out on bond. I have no true defense, just scared as to why i didnt show up. I go back in a few days. I dont have money single mom, am caregiver to disabled mother. How do i plead? what can i do to stay out of jail.

Most of the time there would not be jail time unless it was an aggravated situation - namely numerous suspensions on many days. Be honest and upfront and if you are truly poor, you are eligible for a legal aid attorney.
