I live in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and this past Friday i was at a casino with friends drinking. Long story short my d.d ended up leaving me behind and i ended up getting arrested for disorderly conduct and public drunkenness. I have yet to get arraigned on these charges and also the report stated they were called to the scene because i was attempting to operate a motor vehicle. I was simple in a blackout and have no recollection of the event. the cops stated i was uncooperative. hence the misdemeanor for the disorderly conduct. is there any thing i can do to fight the disorderly conduct charge since the fact that i did not intentionally try and cause a public disturbance. or since i have no recollection of the incident? help is greatly appreciated.
Answer
Well it depends how you define intent. While yoiu may not have intended to do the thinks you did to get arrested you did drink to the point you blacked out and acted badly. In short being drunk is not a defense to the disorderly conduct.
