Can i appeal?

[bobby3]

I have just been convited for possesion of a class A drug (Only a small amount) and been given a criminal record, which i understand lasts for 4years? I was caught by a sniffer dog getting off a train in London. The thing is im in a band and were very close to getting a record deal, but now they know a member of the band has a criminal record they wont touch us. The reason is because if the band have to go on tour to america or something i wont be able to go. Im completely gutted, because now i have to step down from the band and my whole world has been turned inside out. I would just like to know on the likelyhood of an appeal being successful? I know as i pleaded guilty all i can do is appeal for a reduced sentance, so was wondering if i could get the 4years that this offence stays on record reduced in someway? Or any advice on what could be done.

Any help would be really appreciated. Thankyou.

CRAZY WORLD WE LIVE IN !.

Well you pleaded guity, and you did have drugs on you, so first of all accept it.

Life is a lesson, we all make mistakes.

Not much point appealing as a conviction is a conviction, its on your record until you die.

Sounds like your record company are complete morons, as all the senior management there are proberly sniffing the White stuff every weekend themselves.

Pick yourself up, grow some balls and start making some changes to your life, if your band is that good, then look for other companies, if not, let your other members have their fame, and live your own life.

The convicted rapist Mike Tyson is allowed to enter this country and tour giving talks on his life...As I said : What a crazy world we live in mate.

BE BRAVE & BE LUCKY
