An attempted felony refers to an act where an individual takes substantial steps toward committing a serious crime (a felony) but ultimately does not complete the act. This legal concept recognizes the intent to commit a crime, even if the perpetrator is unsuccessful. Penalties for attempted felonies can vary but often carry severe consequences similar to those for the completed crime, reflecting the seriousness of the intent to commit harm.

What crime is punishible if attempted and not punishible if committed?

I cannot speak for states other than Texas on this, but it would be logical if others handle it the same way. In Texas, an attempted crime is one grade lower than if the crime had been committed. For example, if you attempt a first degree felony, it is classified as a second degree felony. If you attempt a second degree felony, it is classified as a third degree felony, and so on.
