1 Answer from Attorneys
If convicted of all 74 counts, which is unlikely, and if the penalties were run consecutively, then the court may impose 73 years and 90 days and a fine of $183,500.00. The first offense carries a fine not exceeding $ 1,000 or imprisonment not exceeding 90 days or both; and for a second or subsequent offense, a fine not exceeding $ 2,500 or imprisonment not exceeding 1 year or both.
