How much can you get for being charged with a class 2 felony drive by shooting on your first offense in maricopa county?

Answer 1

There are six classifications of felonies in Arizona ranging from Class 6 to Class 1.

A class 2 felony is generally violent in nature, with intent to harm another person, making the punishment more severe. For class 2 felonies in Arizona, there is a presumptive sentence term of ten and a half years, but the sentence itself can range from a minimum of seven, to a maximum of twenty-one years for a first offense. A drive by shooting would also be considered assault with a deadly weapon, so that would be taken into account as well during sentencing.

Along with serving time, the judge may also give you a fine of up to $150,000.
