"A violation of this section shall constitute a simple misdemeanor." Can the police officer or jailer who refused to let me see my spouse be charged? I also left a message for my lawyer and when he called back to the dispatch center, they didn't put him through to me or told him I was not there. Thank you! What does this sentence mean?

“A violation of this section shall constitute a simple misdemeanor.”

Can the police officer or jailer who refused to let me see my spouse be charged? I also left a message for my lawyer and when he called back to the dispatch center, they didn’t put him through to me or told him I was not there.

Thank you!

Of course, it is fiction that a lawyer is by his phone at 2:00 a.m., or on the weekend during the day for that matter.
