WHAT IS CONSIDERED DISORDERLY CONDUCT?
In Washington, a person may be arrested for disorderly conduct if they are suspected of committing any of the following actions:
- Intentionally causing disruption at a lawful meeting without authority
- Speaking abusively and creating a risk of assault
- Intentionally blocking traffic without authority
WHAT ARE THE PENALTIES FOR DISORDERLY CONDUCT IN CALIFORNIA?
According to RCW 9A.84.030, conviction of disorderly conduct could result in misdemeanor penalties of at least a day in jail and fines of at least $250. While a day in jail and a small fine may not seem a big deal at first, there are additional consequences for having a misdemeanor on your record that the court does not impose.
These consequences include:
- The loss of professional licenses
- Deportation
- Ineligibility for certain government benefits
- Difficulty getting hired
- Keeping custody of your children
