i went to jail on a disorderly conduct charge after confronting my cousin, his girlfriend over a van of mine they had stolen. i had brought a bat for protection due to a huge size disadvantage and due to the company there to figure out where it went to. they lunged at me, i swung back and accidently damaged the small window on their door. i spent a day in jail before being bonded out. how difficult is it to get the case dismissed and what is the maximum penalty i am facing and why did i get the charge top begin with? keep in mind these individuals are now facing felony charges over auto theft in regards to my van. They attacked me because they knew i was there to try to retrieve my van. can they also be sued for my court costs and bond and will i have to pay if im found not guilty? Will their gta charges hurt them in court?
