Just like everybody else, there are Misdemeanors and there are Felonies. Because the DC is 'dual" jurisdiction (BOTH federal and local) the Metropolitan Police of the DC also enforce Federal felony law. The DC Superior Court is the local city court and hears misdemeanor and traffic cases, while the US District Court for The District of Columbia tries all felony cases.
