What to Expect When Charged with a Misdemeanor
If you, a friend or loved one has been charged with a misdemeanor, it is typically known as a less serious crime. The punishment for a misdemeanor in California can vary according to jurisdiction and county. The typical maximum punishment for a misdemeanor in California is one year in a county jail. Some that are charged with misdemeanors are given fines, probation, community service or a part-time prison sentence which may be served on weekends. If someone has been charged with a misdemeanor, their civil rights should not be imposed upon. Freedoms such as voting should not be interrupted unless the judge has imposed a jail sentence upon them.
Court Responsibilities
It’s important to understand that if you have been charged with a misdemeanor, even if you are bailed out of jail, it is still a serious and formal matter which will have to be addressed in court. When released from jail, you will probably be asked to sign a citation document called “a promise to appear. ” Should for any reason you fail to appear in court for your misdemeanor charge, you may be charged with an additional offense which is punishable by up to 6 months in jail, steep fines and additional court fees. It is also highly likely that the judge will issue a warrant for your arrest, so it is crucial to make every court date.
The Bail Bond Process
Upon contacting our company, we Â’ll ask a few quick questions to get the bail process started.
