Trespass is usually a minor misdemanor charge. When appearing in court you will get the opportunity to plead guilty or not guilty. If you plead guilty you will probably be fined or receive some kind of community service sentence. If you plead not guilty, the court will hear the testimony of your accuser (the complainant) and you will get a chance to tell your side of the story. The judge will then render a decision as to your guilt, or lack thereof.

What does pleaded guilty mean?
If you have been arrested by the police because they think you have committed a crime, the next thing that happens is that you are brought to court for trial. When you come into court the charges against you are read out and you are given the opportunity to say that either you did not do the things you are accused of (a plea of not guilty) or that you agree that you did what you are accused of (a plea of guilty). If you plead guilty then there is no trial and the court will decide the punishment you deserve immediately. If you plead not guilt, a trial will be held and a jury will be appointed to hear both sides of the argument and decide if they think you are or are not guilty. If they decide you are guilty you will be punished.
