It's unlikely. Disorderly conduct is a violation, which is not even considered a criminal offense. It's technically possible for some jail time to be imposed upon a conviction, but very rare.

It is a violation with a possibility of jail, but absent really exascerbating circumstances, it is highly unlikely. You may contact my office @7188340087 for a phone consultation.
The maximum penalty is 15 days in jail, but if you are a first offender probably no jail.
