G*******g 发帖数: 180 | 1 我糊里糊涂地在没有开放的地方挖clam被人举报,然后被罚。查了查WA的法律:
Unlawful recreational fishing in the second degree is a misdemeanor.
现收到法庭的criminal citation,有两个选项,court appearance和 bail forfeiture
109$.照罚单背面的说法,如果交钱就不用上庭:
If a dollar amount appears in the box marked by BAIL, you do not have to appear in court. Instead, send a check to the court. This will close your case.
但这是不是不等于认了罪misdemeanor?罚款我愿意交,但不希望留misdemeanor案底。请问这种情况应该怎么处理?万分感谢!! | F******a 发帖数: 92 | 2 你的理解基本上是对的:
交钱就不用上庭, 但这是等于认了罪, 会留案底。
建议你首先要确定自己犯的是什么级别的罪: 是infraction, 还是misdemeanor? 罚单上应该
写具体你犯了哪(几)条罪, 及其编号。上网查一下编号就知道了。
如果是infraction, 不打紧, 交了罚款由它去吧。
如果是misdemeanor而你又不想留案底的话, 除了请个律师帮你上庭打官司, 我不知道其
它更好的办法。即便有律师, 如果人赃俱获的话, 估计很难完全洗脱掉。在这种情况下, 你的
goal应该是把misdemeanor搞成infraction。

Bail forfeiture in your case means:
If you don't go to the court, you lost your bail. But police will not issue
a warrant to catch you.
your fine will detemine by the judge. A misdemeanor criminal conviction
carries a maximum penalty of 90 days in jail and a $1,000.00 fine. (RCW 9.
92.030) |
