> How many readers have spent a night in jail, justly or unjustly?

Probably more than you expect.

> What were your experiences paying the fines, if there was any fees/fine involved, was it reasonable and what city?

This almost certainly varies quite a bit from place to place. Contact a lawyer; if you spend just one night behind bars, you can probably afford to at least talk to one about your situation.

This is a question for experiences paying the fine, not so much for advice.

I've added to the question to make it clear.

Ooh, that's much clearer; I thought you were asking for advice on what to do :)

I don't remember the particulars of my run-ins with the law, but I wish you luck!
