no not always. depends on if u have any priors and basically your entire criminal past. i got a 1st degree forgery charge about 2 yrs ago-while i was out on bail for another charge-but since the charges were of a completely different nature, and i had no prior charges of that type, they took me in for 48 hrs and then ultimately sentenced me to time served + restitution/fines. i was also placed on 3yrs of "informal probation" which really means nothing except that the cops can pretty much do a "search & seizure" of me, my residence, vehicle, etc. whenever they request.

It depends on what state you committed the forgery in. Different states have different statutes of limitation, and some have no limitations at all.
With the purpose to defraud, the person makes, completes, alters, counterfeits, possesses or utters any written instrument that purports to be or is calculated to become or to represent if completed the act of a person who did not authorize that act. "Check" Forgery is considered forgery in the second degree, which is a Class C Felony. Take special note that by simply possessing a forged check makes you guilty of forgery in the second degree. Most people think you have to "forge" someones signature to be guilty of forgery, however, if you attempt to add numbers to a check to make the check amount different from the legal written amount, you have also committed forgery in the second degree. To be guilty of forgery in the first degree the legal definition (first paragraph) must be applied to money, a security, postage or revenue stamps or other government issued instrument. (also included are stocks and bonds)
Tehnically, yes, you could. "Forgery is the false making or altering of a written instrument and if covered by federal and varied state criminal statutes. A person commits the crime of forgery in the first degree if, with intent to defraud, he falsely makes, completes or alters a written instrument."

There is only ONE type of forgery and it is defined the same under both state and federal criminal statutes. Forgery is "the false making or altering of a written instrument (of any knd or type). A person commits the crime of forgery in the first degree if, with intent to defraud, he falsely makes, completes or alters a written instrument." Examples might be: Counterfeiting a dcoument, falsifying public records, and materially altering legal documents.

No, except at the beginning of a sentence because it is not a proper noun.
No it does not. Some students pursue the associate degree first and then transfer to a four year institution to finish the bachelor's degree. However, pursing a bachelors degree does not automatically give you an associates degree.
FIrst of all, your probation will, in all probability, be revoked for violating your probation, and, you will be remanded to jail to serve the remainder of that sentence behind bars. Additionally, you will be charged with the felony forgery and since the forgery charge is a felony you could be facing, upon conviction, an additional term of MORE than one year in prison.
1st degree is worse because you get a longer prison sentence and you plan on the murder, you go into the crime intentionally killing that person.
