Misdemeanors

In Arizona, misdemeanors are criminal offenses that can require up to 6 months in jail and thousands of dollars in fines. You may be summoned to appear in a city court (e.g., Flagstaff Municipal Court), or a justice court (e.g., Flagstaff Justice Court), or potentially a Superior Court (e.g., Coconino County Superior Court).

There are hundreds of misdemeanor offenses you can be charged with. Some are vehicle related. For example, a typical "DUI – Impaired to the Slightest" is a class 1 misdemeanor. Many drug crimes and property crimes are also misdemeanors.
