Misdemeanor Standard Sentences
This office receives many calls inquiring as to what a person may expect when they enter a guilty plea to a misdemeanor offense in magistrate court. While every case is different and there will always be some example of the court deviating higher or lower than what is indicated on the link provided, the attached list is what this office has identified as a standard sentence handed down by the Judge Bern on a consistent basis. There is no guarantee that the State (State’s Attorney’s Office) will request or recommend the standard, nor is there any guarantee that the Court will follow this in your individual case.
