Burglary- 2nd Degree
No, it is a felony.
yes
it means you need to get a good lawyer, you're in trouble
A law typically has a specific level or grade associated with the offense such as 1st, 2nd, or 3rd degree felony. An ungraded felony, although still considered a felony. has no level of the offense attached to the crime.
The most severe is the First Degree Felony, which consists of murder, rape, etc. The higher the degree numerically [2nd, 3rd, 4th etc] the lower the severity.
If it is Kidnapping in the first degree in violation of P.L. 135.25, the sentencing possibilities are an indeterminite sentence with the minimum time in jail being a sentence of between 15 and 25 years, and the maximum expiration being life in prison. Meaning you can get somewhere between "15-life" and "25-life." If it is Kidnapping in the second degree in violation of P.L. 135.20, and you have no prior felony convictions, it will be a determinite sentence of between 5 and 25 years.
They can prosecute for a third degree felony.
You can earn a bachelor's degree even if you have a felony.
This can vary slightly by state (from highest punishment to lowest): * Capital Felony * First Degree Felony * Second Degree Felony * Third Degree Felony * State Jail Felony (different states name this differently).
Not including "class D Violent felonies", they include Attempted manslaughter in the 2nd degree, attempted vehicular manslaughter in the 2nd degree, vehicular assault in the 1st degree, reckless endangerment in the 1st degree, attempted rape in the 2nd degree, sodomy in the 2nd degree, and promoting a sexual performance by a child. I got this from the NYSED website.
A Felony - a Capital Crime - a Crime of Moral Turpitude.
