yes very well
It is class A Misdemeanor but it's bumped up to a third degree felony if a weapon is used.
In North Carolina, theft by deception is classified as a felony or misdemeanor based on the value of the property involved and the circumstances of the offense. If the value of the property stolen is less than $1,000, it typically constitutes a Class 1 misdemeanor. However, if the value exceeds $1,000, it is classified as a Class H felony. Factors such as prior criminal history and the specific methods of deception used can also influence the severity of the charge.
In most US states the first offence is a class A misdemeanor but subsequent offenses including ignoring the courts orders can bring the charge into felony status and big time jail terms. This is not the case in all states. Some class violent domestic abuse as a felony and charge as such in every instance. See related links below
A conviction stays on your record and will affect you for life.
It all depends on which part of KRS 514.110 you are referring to. There are several conditions which determines whether it is a felony or misdemeanor. If the value of the property is U/$500 then it is a Class A Misdemeanor, O/$500 but U/$10,000.00, then it is a Class D Felony. Over $10,000 is a Class C Felony. If it is a Firearm, regardless of the value, it is a Class D Felony. Punishment can range from fines, jail, or prison. This is generally used when there is not enough evidence to prove that you actually stole the items, but said items are found on your possession.
Any time a weapon of any type is used in an assault, it raises the level of the offense from a misdemeanor to a felony. If you are simply protecting yourself, you can use NO MORE FORCE than the other person is using against you AND you must be williing, or be able to, retreat.
Depending on the circumstances and previous convictions, battery can be both a misdemeanor and a felony. Battery on a Police Officer is most always a felony. Simple Battery, is generally a high grade misdemeanor. If you've been convicted of battery once before, it could be upgraded to a low class felony. Check your states' statues regarding Battery or Assault (though they are technically different, some states fade the meaning).
In a felony court case number, "NA" typically stands for "Not Applicable." It may indicate that a particular category or detail does not apply to the specific case. This designation can be used for various reasons, such as when certain information is not relevant or required for that case.
A felony is a very serious type of crime. It differentiates from a misdemeanor which is a less serious crime and carries less severe consequences. States have some discretion regarding what they classify as a felony or misdemeanor. A lawyer is definitely necessary when there is a felony charge, and oftentimes, an attorney is also needed when there are more severe misdemeanor charges. A felony generally carries at least a one year sentence in prison while a misdemeanor carries a term less than one year in jail. A person can be arrested for a felony even before the felony charge is issued. The felony charge is when the prosecutor formally begins legal proceedings against an accused person. Each state has the discretion to choose which way the proceedings are handled. In most cases, there are two methods that are used to bring the charges against the defendant. The federal government and quite a few states use the grand jury. The grand jury is a random group of ordinary people picked by the district attorney. The district attorney will then present the evidence that they have against the defendant. This group of citizens will determine if there is sufficient evidence to charge the defendant. In some states, the prosecutor will simply write a complaint that accuses the defendant of the crime. The prosecutor will then present this document to the judge. There will then be a preliminary hearing to determine if there is enough evidence to proceed with a trial. A person should have secured a felony attorney by this time. A felony conviction will change your entire life, so it is important to have the right representation for a felony charge. It is critical to have someone who knows the law to assist you. Adequate representation makes a huge difference in whether you will be convicted, and it also determines the length of time you spend in prison. Some defendants are able to prove that they are not guilty of a felony crime, but this is done with the help of a savvy attorney. Your freedom is too precious to take chances with it. You must protect your freedom by fighting for your given rights as a citizen of the U.S. You must stay the course even when it seems hopeless. The legal process can be tedious and cumbersome. It takes patience to endure to the end of the process.
Anything they can find which is relevant to the case can be used against you.
