Normally the felony would get a harsher sentence but there are a lot of other factors that can be taken into consideration. Since you are not being specific, I can't address your case but some of those factors could be that Sally has a long record and Bob does not or someone was hurt by Sally but no personal injury was involved with Bob's case.

∙ 15y agoMisdemeanor crimes are punishable by a sentence to jail of NOT MORE THAN one year, and/or a fine of NOT MORE THAN $1,000. Felony Crimes are punishable by terms in prison EXCEEDING one year, and/or fines EXCEEDING $1,000. Of course, even after finding a defendant guilty of a felony, a judge, using judicial discretion, MAY alter the felons terms to those of less than a year of less than $1,000.
