Legal Question in Criminal Law in Wisconsin

Disorderly Conduct

Can a person be issued a disorderly conduct ticket if they were not there?

A party was at our home and the police came. Since I live there (my name is not on the lease) I too was issued a disorderly conduct ticket for 360.00.

Can this be done?
