Got stopped by guards did roadside drug test wasn’t positive for cocaine took me to station gave blood but came back in test. I got summons for careless driving 5 months later then certificate from MBRSA , the Guard said on stand that I failed test for cocaine and he charged me, but he didn’t. Wouldn’t the two charges be together on one summons?
Convicted of drug driving and careless driving

A separate summons, for each alleged offence is issued, and they should then be "served" on the named person. This can be done in a few different ways.
I strongly suggest the OP needs a solicitor in this instance, if they do not already have one.
It is for a Judge to decide if a defendant is properly before the Court on foot of any given summons or charge, and in my opinion only a solicitor will be able to deal with any anomaly that may be present on the OP's behalf.

Sounds like this has already been in Court.
You'll need to let the legal experts do their job.
Convicted on both charges, or just on the careless driving charge?
If you were never served with a summons for the drug charge but it was dealt with at your trial for careless driving and you got a conviction on the drug charge, that looks like grounds for an appeal. But this is fairly technical stuff and you will definitely need a solicitor.
Was it positive for something else? Why did he take you to a station if you were clear?
Is this the reason (or one of them) that you are appealing?
Why? There's nothing in the posting guidelines to prevent it.

There are paid professionals who will take your money to answer most of questions that are covered here. AAM wouldn't exist if we restricted such questions.
Because the advice freely given, with absolutely no offence to those who give it, is completely worthless if those giving the advice are not legally trained. Anything else is equivalent to barstool whataboutery.
How many times has the response on this site to a legal question been 'what does your solicitor say?'

If that's the case what are you doing here? Everything here could be considered as such.
Perhaps you should consider a keypost on appropriate qualifications for members before commenting on any specific type of query?
Humbly, I'll try to start:
Weather - Meteorologist.
Messer - Multiple qualifications, reprimands and deleted posts as proof
This is a consumer website, there is no minimum qualification for entry, nor is there any minimum qualification for contributing. It is for and about consumers and their concerns. It is that simple or that complex if you want it to be.
So what if the standard response seems to you to be "consult a professional"? For some posters maybe that's what they need to hear.
