Failing to do something can result in a criminal charge of negligence if it can be proven that the failure to act was a breach of a legal duty owed to another person, and this breach caused harm or injury. In criminal law, negligence generally involves a higher level of culpability, such as gross negligence or reckless disregard for the safety of others. However, the specific elements and penalties for criminal negligence vary depending on jurisdiction.
