how long do you think court will take in nyc's midtown community court?

I have a friend who was arrested for soliciting sex with an undercover cop. It is her first offense and she is 18 years old. She is due back in court and is so nervous. I keep telling her it'll most likely be community service and/or a fine. How long do you think court will take at 9:30 am for this type of offense and what kind of punishment is she looking at?

I've helped a friend out who's a lawyer in the NYC court system. She'll probably be there all morning, but I couldn't tell you what the punishment would be.
