Q: i have a charge for criminal damage and disorderly conduct x5 i want to k ow what will happen if i plead guilty

A: Every case is different and since you were charged with 6 criminal misdemeanors, I strongly recommend that you hire a private lawyer to defend you. If you only had one charge, then that might be a different situation where online advice could be helpful.

That being said, here is what I can tell you. Each of these charges are Class 1 Misdemeanors. The maximum punishment you can get is 6 months of jail (180 days) for each charge. Will that happen, not likely. The maximum punishment is rare. What is more common is that you are likely looking at between 1-10 days of jail depending on the circumstances with all your charges. If what happened was on the lower end of seriousness then you might not have any jail but could get unsupervised probation. Restitution is very common since you have a criminal damage charge. Restitution is basically a way to make you pay money to any victims if there was something damaged. The court could also add in their own fines and fees up to $2,500. Not likely to ever be that high but more like a couple hundred. In some situations, you could also be required to do mandatory counseling for anger management, substance use, etc.

Again, you really need a law firm to give you a free consultation at minimum but hiring a law firm is ideally what you need with all these charges. Some law firms do payment plans and offer financing, which is better than just pleading guilty when you could get a much better outcome with a law firm on your side.
