State laws vary so you need to look at the statue you were charged with and find out what the potential penalties are for breaking that law. Just Google the statue number along with your state and you should be able to locate the law in question. For a first offense, you probably won't end up with anything near the maximum penalties, but please learn from your mistake and don't break the law again. Judges don't look favorable on repeat offenders.
