Unless the word is recognizable without the hyphen, it's best to hypenate. Would you know a noncriminal act? Perhaps, but the hyphen makes it clear:
The judge ruled that the defendant committed a non-criminal act.
Many words we use today began as two words, then became hyphenated, before eventually becoming one word. The word lipstick was originally two words back in the 1880s, then became hyphenated around the 1920s.

When should non be hyphenated with a word?
The prefix "non" should be hyphenated when it precedes a proper noun or when it helps clarify the meaning of the word it modifies. For example, "non-English" is hyphenated to specify that it refers to something not related to the English language. In contrast, "nonprofit" is typically written as one word without a hyphen. Always consider clarity and readability when deciding whether to hyphenate.
