What is a Misdemeanor in Michigan?

In Michigan, misdemeanors are criminal offenses that carry less severe penalties than felonies but are still serious. Misdemeanor convictions can result in jail time, fines, and a permanent criminal record.

There are three types of misdemeanors in Michigan:

• 93-Day Misdemeanors: Punishable by up to 93 days in jail and fines up to $500. Examples include disorderly conduct, petty theft, and first-offense DUI.
• 1-Year Misdemeanors: Punishable by up to 1 year in jail and fines up to $1,000. Examples include domestic violence, second-offense DUI, and stalking.
• High Court Misdemeanors: Punishable by up to 2 years in prison and fines up to $2,000. These are treated similarly to felonies.

Consequences of a Misdemeanor Conviction

Even a misdemeanor conviction can have lasting impacts on your life, including:
