Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

What is this disturbing the peace charge they will try to charge you with? Anyone ever have it done? Are there ways to avoid it? If charged is there a way to beat it?

From the codes I have read, DTP requires willful intent.

Most if not all disturbing the peace laws involve willfull, or pouposeful intent for that disturbance . Can they attempt to charge you with it? Yes. Will it hold? No. Will you have to pay for a lawyer? Probably.

As to whether the charge will hold, perhaps you're a stranger to how municipal court works. Cops often write reports and testify to make the charge. Municipal judges often believe them no matter what.
