Some offenses, such as maintaining a nuisance, can be classified as either a criminally indictable offense (“crime”) or a disorderly persons offense, depending on the circumstances. A person commits a disorderly persons offense when he or she creates or maintains a condition which endangers the safety or health of others, or maintains premises where people to gather to engage in unlawful conduct. One convicted for doing the above can face up to six months in jail.
