    Default Sexual Solicitation, Utah Code Sec. 76-10-1313

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Utah

    I was charged yesterday for a class b dismeanor (Sexual solicitation code 76-10-1313) in Utah...I have to go to court....Considering that I dont have any records and That Im an international student doing a master's degree (with a J-1 visa)...What could be a sentence If Im decleared guilty?

    Is that charge permanent or I can drop it in probation?

    How that could affect my current visa status and the opportunity to get a F-1 visa?

    Thanks

    Quote Quoting Utah Code, Sec. 76-10-1313. Sexual solicitation - Penalty
    (1) A person is guilty of sexual solicitation when:
    (a) he offers or agrees to commit any sexual activity with another person for a fee; or

    (b) he pays or offers or agrees to pay another person to commit any sexual activity for a fee.
    (2) Sexual solicitation is a class B misdemeanor. However, any person who is convicted a second time, and on all subsequent convictions, under this section or under a local ordinance adopted in compliance with Section 76-10-1307, is guilty of a class A misdemeanor, except as provided in Section 76-10-1309 [HIV Positive Offender].
    Class B misdemeanors are punishable by a fine not exceeding $1,000 and a jail term not exceeding six months. Odds are you would receive fines, court assessments, and probation.

    I suggest working with a lawyer to see if you can get a dismissal or have the charge reduced. It will be helpful if your lawyer is familiar with immigration law.
