Misdemeanor Crimes Committed to Winning Your Case

Fort Wayne Misdemeanor Lawyer

Class A, B, & C Misdemeanor Charges in Indiana

There are three categories of misdemeanor crimes, Class A, Class B and Class C. If you have been charged with a Class C misdemeanor, you are facing potential penalties of up to 60 days in jail and a maximum fine of $500. A guilty verdict in a Class B misdemeanor case will result in up to 180 days in jail and a fine not to exceed $1,000.

Class A misdemeanors are the most serious, and can lead to:

  • Up to 365 days in jail
  • A maximum fine of $500

Indiana's criminal laws can be extremely complex and confusing, even in cases involving misdemeanors. Following a misdemeanor arrest, an initial hearing is held where the charges are read and the bail amount is set (if it hasn't been set previously). At the initial hearing is the defendant is asked if they wish to plead guilty, not guilty, or would like to hire an attorney. It is never a wise idea to plead guilty without consulting a lawyer first.
