QUESTION
Will I go to jail if I broke my friend's door?

More details to this question:
I had gone out with a girl and had too much to drink. We argued while leaving the bar and when she locked me out of her house. I broke the glass at the door in a fit of rage. The watchmen came and I gave them the money to repair the damage. Now the girl has reported to the police. What are my legal options? Can I go to jail?

You could be charged with criminal mischief although since you already paid restitution it is unlikely.

They can arrest you for breaking and entering or criminal mischief. It's real easy to get arrested. But hire a good attorney and hopefully they will dismiss the case being that everything was paid for.
