Minor in Possession

Minor in Possession (MIP)

Consequences of MIP

In the State of Missouri, a person under the age of 21 can be charged with an MIP for being in possession of alcohol. The law also states that if a police officer finds a minor visibly intoxicated or a minor has a Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) of .02 or greater and is under the age of 21, he or she can be charged with Minor in Possession (MIP) by Consumption. The firm recommends that you consult with an attorney as soon as possible to ensure you get the dedicated legal guidance you need.

An MIP can also have an effect on you or your child's driver's license. If you are a minor and plead guilty to or are convicted of an MIP, your driving privileges may be suspended or revoked. When it is a first offense for an MIP, your driver's license can be suspended for 30 days. If it is a second offense your license can be suspended for 90 days, and if it is a third or subsequent offense for a MIP your driver's license can be revoked for 1 year. With the help of an attorney from the firm you may be able to avoid all the consequences associated with an MIP charge.
