open intox in public

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Michigan

In 2008, I had just turned 21 and was in kalamazoo at the time. I did not know you could not walk down a public street with a beer can open. A cop stopped me and gave me a ticket for it. It said to appear at the court house at a certain date. I appeared at the court house and all they asked for was a $100 fine. I did not have a trial or go to jail.

Would this be considered a conviction of a civil infraction or a misdemeanor?

At least this one is the correct forum - this has nothing to do with drunk driving.
