Misdemeanor and Felony Charges:
Depending on the nature of your case, you may face either misdemeanor or felony criminal charges.
Misdemeanor charges are less serious offenses. The range of sentencing is less than that of a felony. Conviction of a misdemeanor carries a prison sentence of less than one year in jail. Misdemeanor offenses also carry certain fines and costs, which depend on the crime you supposedly committed. A misdemeanor conviction leads to a mark on your criminal record, which may remain unless it’s expunged.
Felony charges are much more serious than misdemeanors. The range of sentencing is from one year to life in prison. Like a misdemeanor, you’ll also face certain fines and costs, which depend on the crime. A felony conviction will also be on your criminal record, and it’s much more difficult to expunge than a misdemeanor conviction. Depending on the type of conviction you face, it may take up to ten years before it’s available for expungement.
