Disorderly conduct is often considered a "catch-all" statute in Connecticut that can be applied to various behaviors. Yet, even though most people tend to believe disorderly conduct is a minor violation, if you have been charged with this crime, you still need to retain experienced legal counsel that can get you through this stressful ordeal. Fortunately, our legal team at the Law Offices of Pat Brown is here for you, ready to vigorously fight on your behalf and protect your rights.
In Connecticut, an individual can be found guilty of disorderly conduct when the individual intends to inconvenience, alarm, or annoy another individual by:
Using threatening behavior

Disturbing a lawful assembly
Ignoring lawful orders by the police to disperse

The crime of disorderly conduct is codified in CGS 53a-182, which indicates that this conduct is considered a Class C misdemeanor.
