Misdemeanors
Former Proven Prosecutor
A misdemeanor charge in Arizona can still result in serious consequences such as getting your driving privileges taken away and jail. Particularly if you are a minor charged with an underage DUI, you not only face potential fines, license suspension, juvenile detention and community service but the residual effects of a criminal conviction. A conviction will be on your record and can affect your ability to go to college, attain scholarships or obtain employment. These are serious implications that require the assistance of a skilled and active Phoenix criminal defense attorney.

Open Container Laws
Having an open bottle/container of alcohol in your car is a misdemeanor offense punishable by a fine of up to $750. A half-empty or even an empty container is cause for an open container ticket. The driver of a vehicle is not the only individual that can be charged. Passengers can be charged as well for having an open container in the car.
