Re: misdeameanor convictions
The case could be dropped if the Solicitor General or District Attorney's Office sees fit to do so. The punishment for a misdemeanor can be up to twelve months in jail. What the exact punishment would be in your case is impossible to predict with any accuracy without knowing more about the case. Please call me to discuss the matter further.
