MISDEMEANORS

Misdemeanors are crimes with a punishment of less than one year in prison. Many crimes, such as theft, have degrees of seriousness with the most serious being felonies and the less serious being misdemeanors.

Procedures used in misdemeanor prosecution may be abbreviated.

Misdemeanors should not be taken lightly. You can face jail time and large amounts of money in fines for what you may consider a minor offense. In the end the only that matters is what the prosecutor thinks, and they will prosecute you to greatest degree possible if you do not have adequate legal counsel.
