A: Any citation is an accusation charging you with a misdemeanor offense or a city or county ordinance violation which can range in punishment from a fine and up to 12 months in jail. You never mentioned what you were charged with or the jurisdiction. I would encourage you to contact a lawyer in the jurisdiction where the charges are pending.
