In California, if convicted of any misdemeanor, you potentially face up to 6-12 months in jail, plus fines. Multiple counts and charges will multiply your problems. If you have priors and strikes, those will add �penalty �enhancements� under the 3-Strikes rules. If this constitutes a probation or parole violation, factor those new violation charge[s] and old deferred sentence[s] in as well. Bottom line, repeat offenses are going to get you jail time from an annoyed DA and judge. If serious about hiring counsel to help in this, and if this is in SoCal courts, feel free to contact me.
