    Default Trespassing Charge After Entering the Wrong House While Drunk

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: North Dakota

    Hi!

    I was extremely intoxicated and entered the wrong house. I had no intention of stealing anything and I was more lost. They called the cops on me and I was charged with Criminal Trespassing. Is there any way I could fight this or am I screwed?

    Default Re: How Do I Fight Criminal Trespassing Charges

    Since you didn't rob the house they only charged you with criminal trespassing. Maybe a lawyer can get you in to a diversion program or get the charged lowered on a plea bargain. Discuss your options with a lawyer.

    If they charged you as a class A, it takes intent. Try for at least amendment to 12.1-3i1-01. Disorderly conduct a class b and diversion. You might be able to find an infraction that fits also.
