why not spruce up your "im sorry paragraph" and just list the date, county, charges, case number, and outcome? the story telling seems irrelevant. my two cents

It may help if you let the law schools know that you won't be seeking a parking permit. :D

The number (11) & variety of charges may overwhelm some admissions officers. Consider applying to at least a dozen law schools.

5 misdemeanor charges & 6 violations charged resulted in only 2 convictions ? Were these charges from the same incident or from multiple incidents ?

It's spelled with an "h" in the Marihuana Tax Act of 1937.
