In Maryland, disorderly conduct is a common charge defined and penalized under Section 10-201(c) of the Criminal Law Article of the Maryland Code. This offense typically involves actions in public places that disturb the peace, obstruct traffic, hinder passage into public buildings, or fail to obey a reasonable official order at a scene of emergency.

While disorderly conduct may not seem serious, a conviction can negatively impact your life.
