I was arrested in New Jersey for disorderly conduct for "screaming obscenities at officers...". I am scheduled to appear in court next week. I plan to plead not guilty. Can anyone tell me what the proceedure is, what the penalty is and what are the chances of getting a dismissal? Do I need an attorney to do this? I have never been arrested before, I did not resist arrest, I was not violent or physical. In fact, I was in bed when they barged into my motel room and arrested me! Any advise or suggestions?
