Legal Question in Criminal Law in Wisconsin

Re: Disorderly Conduct ticket

Yes, depending on your lack of prior criminal history, whether the factual scenario would support it and whether you have a good attorney with the experience to know how to negotiate with the prosecutors.

Disorderly Conduct Charges--Are Reductions Possible?

Anything is possible, but whether or not is likely depends upon the facts and the jurisdiction which is prosecuting you. Whether you are charged with a disorderly conduct crime under state law (which carries the potential for 30 days jail) or a local ordinance which can only result in a fine, also matters. If you are already charged with an ordinance rather than a fine, it may already approach being the least serious charge available and hence difficult to get reduced even further. Some jurisdictions, however, will even dismiss charges on occasion for first offenders who have a good explanation for a bit of minor misbehavior, as long as court costs are paid and the defendant successfully completes various types of counseling. Knowing nothing about your case, I could not even begin to advise you.
