Which act could constitute disorderly conduct?

• A. All of the above
• B. Acting in a disorderly manner
• C. Intentionally interrupting a meeting
• D. Disrupts the operation of a school

Answer: (A)

Disorderly conduct covers behavior that disturbs the peace or public order. Each of these situations can fit that idea: acting in a disorderly manner creates a disturbance or nuisance; intentionally interrupting a meeting disrupts the orderly process of a lawful assembly; and disrupting the operation of a school interferes with its ability to function and can threaten safety or order. Because each scenario can meet the criteria of disturbing the peace or impeding an operation, all of the above could constitute disorderly conduct.
