This is a great topic……. The court system and ADHD…….. I might suggest “Googling” that topic “ADHD and the court system” I do not know the country or states you are all from but I might suggest a couple things. Make sure you have a documented diagnosis of your adhd. Call any legal aid service and explain honestly your issues. If you have a disability and depending where you are from they(the court needs to make reasonable accommodations for you) a defense lawyer might be one of them. Sometimes that is enough to let the judge know you are not a bad guy/girl but one with ADHD. Unfortunately the jails are full of not so bad people just people that cant follow all the rules as they are created. Not an excuse guys a reason and all the more reason it is important to get a handle on our ADHD. Crap I understand ask me about child support issues…I was injured and i could have easily went to court to have it temporarily reduced but NO i racked up a huge amount because I did not…why? the paperwork in triplicates no less please It is a monster… To be honest that is one of the reasons i am addressing my ADHD I am not a criminal I just have real issues that I need to get a handle of and manage !
