What’s at Stake in Stoughton District Court
Driving crimes are often charged as misdemeanors, but many carry:
- Mandatory license suspension
- Fines and surcharges
- Jail time (especially for repeat offenses or OUI-related charges)
- Probation and driving safety programs
- A CORI entry (criminal record)
- Higher insurance rates or disqualification from rideshare jobs
Even a single conviction can snowball if you're later charged with another offense—so early legal action is critical.

Is jail on the table for a first offense?
Sometimes—but in many Stoughton cases, especially with no prior record, we’re able to resolve things without jail, and often without a conviction.
