Not having a past history is a big factor in the decision of whether or not you get charged for a crime, but that being said, it really comes down to how severe the crime was, how your present yourself in court, and whether or not the judge thinks you should pay the price for your actions. Not having any incidents prior to the crime is not a valid excuse to be dismissed from any criminal action.
