Negligent discharge of a firearm is a crime that is treated very seriously by Los Angeles County law enforcement. Given the danger of falling ammunition and the sheer numbers of incidents that take place every year in Los Angeles, this crime is one you must avoid being charged with.
This crime can be charged as either a misdemeanor or a felony. One consideration for prosecutors is whether you have even been charged or convicted of this crime in the past.
You should NEVER try and represent yourself in court especially since the prosecutor could be seeking a lengthy jail sentence if you are convicted!
