Crimes are usually categorized as felonies or misdemeanors based on their nature and the maximum punishment that can be imposed.

  • A felony involves serious misconduct that is punishable by death or by imprisonment for more than one year. Most state criminal laws subdivide felonies into different classes with varying degrees of punishment.
  • Crimes that do not amount to felonies are misdemeanors or violations. A misdemeanor is misconduct for which the law prescribes punishment of no more than one year in prison.

Lesser offenses, such as some traffic and parking infractions, are often called infractions and are considered a part of criminal law.
