Felony
If you’ve been charged with a felony, you probably already know how serious your situation is. A felony conviction can be a black mark on your record, with severe penalties.
A felony is any crime with a potential punishment above a year in jail. Felonies are then divided into three different classes – A, B, and C.
A Class C felony is the least serious felony. It has a maximum penalty of 5 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. An example of a Class C Felony is theft 2°, rape 3°, malicious harassment, and assault 3°.
A Class B felony has a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $20,000 fine. Examples include assault 2°, theft 1°, manslaughter 2°, and theft of a motor vehicle.
Lastly, a Class A felony is the most serious type of crime you can face. It comes with a maximum penalty of life in prison and a $50,000 fine. Examples include manslaughter 1°, assault 1°, rape 2°, and assault 2° with sexual motivation.
