No, a third misdemeanor offense under DC law does not convert automatically to a felony under the the facts which you've described.
However, your best chances to get the mattrer dismissed will come after you've hired a competent criminal defense counsel with plenty of experience in the practice of criminal law in the DC Superior Court to represent you in this matter.
