The county state court does not list it as a misdemeanor, the GBI lists the gravity of offenses. Of course, I also love when people that have no money and criminal convictions talk about suing someone. Lawyers like money, so no attorney will take the case for free. All of the county governments are short of money, so they are not going to offer you anything for a settlement. When you try the case to a jury, no jury is giving a criminal (felony or misdemeanor) money, because their feelings were hurt. For other helpful hints, see my website: www.lawrencelewispc.com. Good luck.
