Harassment

There are different forms of Harassment. The most common charge is Harassment in the Second Degree, a violation punishable by up to 15 days in jail, a mandatory surcharge and other potential penalties. Harassment in the Second Degree is typically charged when there are allegations of offensive physical contact (slap, punch, kick, etc.) or threats of such conduct. Mark Foti has experience with type of offense; he represented over 100 people charged with Harassment 2nd in the summer of 2012 alone, often resulting in dismissal before trial. Contact Mark Foti.

Disorderly Conduct

Disorderly Conduct is a violation, not a crime, but it must be resolved in a criminal court. It is important to address these charges quickly and responsibly. The offense carries a mandatory surcharge and other potential penalties including up to 15 days in jail, community service, drug/alcohol evaluations, and/or fines.
