>>> THANK YOU. >> BREAKING NEWS OUT OF FLORIDA. NEWS OUT OF FLORIDA. AN> BREAKING NEWS OUT OF FLORIDA, AN ARREST WARRANT ISSUED FOR THE FORMER TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS WIDE RECEIVER, ANTONIO BROWN WHO IS WANTED ON A CHARGE OF MISDEMEANOR BATTERY. HE PLEADED NO CONTEST TO FELONY BATTERY CHARGES IN 2020 AND THE BUCCANEERS RELEASED HIM IN JANUARY AFTER HE WALKED OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GAME. OUR LEGAL ANALYST JOINS US NOW. WHAT KIND OF LEGAL TROUBLE IS HE END IN QUIZ >> MISDEMEANOR CARRIES WITH IT A STATUTORY MAXIMUM OF ONE YEAR IN JAIL AND THAT

IS WHAT THIS PROVIDES FOR. PROVIDES FOR. BUT, IT’S AN INTERESTING AGGRAVATION SECTION THAT PROVIDES THAT IF SOMEONE COMMITS A BATTERY THEN THEY GET MISDEMEANOR IF THEY BEEN CONVICTED OF A PRIOR FELONY BATTERY THEN THAT COULD BE AGGRAVATED TO A THIRD DEGREE FELONY. YOUR PUNISHMENT IN FLORIDA FOR BATTERY CAN VARY DEPENDING ON YOUR PRIOR CRIMINAL HISTORY AND IS SOMETHING THAT DOESN’T NORMALLY HAPPEN. >> HE PLEADED NO CONTEST TO FELONY BATTERY IN 2020. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? >> NO CONTEST IS BASICALLY ACKNOWLEDGING THAT THERE MAY BE EVIDENCE AGAINST YOU. YOU BASICALLY ARE SAYING I’M NOT PLEADING GUILTY

BUT I’M NOT FIGHTING THESE CHARGES AND REALLY THE NET EFFECT OF THAT IS THAT YOU HAVE BEEN FOUND GUILTY, NO CONTEST NORMALLY CAN
