Disorderly Conduct Bail in Florida
Disorderly conduct is one of the lowest-level criminal charges in Florida. It's a 2nd degree misdemeanor carrying a maximum of 60 days in jail and a $500 fine.
Bail is typically very low — often $250-$500. In many cases, defendants are issued a Notice to Appear (NTA) and released without bail. However, if the behavior was particularly disruptive, involved alcohol, or occurred during another incident, the defendant may be booked and held until bail is posted.

Florida Statute Reference
Disorderly Conduct offenses in Florida are governed by F.S. 877.03. Key provisions include the definition of the offense, penalty classifications, and sentencing guidelines. For the full text, visit the Florida Legislature website.
The right to bail in Florida is guaranteed by Article I, Section 14 of the Florida Constitution for all non-capital offenses. This means that for most disorderly conduct charges, bail must be offered — the only question is the amount.
