Have you been accused of or arrested for public indecency in the Atlanta area?

It is important to discuss your legal options with a criminal defense attorney who can work to protect your rights and interests.

What is Public Indecency?

What Georgia law calls public indecency is referred to as indecent exposure in some other states. This is a type of sex crime that involves exposing oneself in public or performing lewd acts in a public place.

It is a misdemeanor offense and may be considered a "lesser" sex offense, but a conviction may still result in:

• imprisonment in county jail for up to 12 months if the defendant is convicted, not to mention the burden of living with the social stigma attached with a conviction of this kind on one's record.
• A third or subsequent offense of this kind may also be charged as a felony punishable by up to 5 years in state prison.
• Sex offender registration is another penalty that may be associated with a conviction for indecent exposure.
