Felonies in California

No matter what state you’re in, felonies are considered far more serious offenses than misdemeanors. They generally cover arson, rape, murder and armed burglary, among other crimes. In California, severe fixed consequences are in place for convictions of a felony crime, and they vary depending on the type of crime committed. Penalties can include jail or state prison time, thousands of dollars in fines and probation. A felony conviction will stay on your criminal record indefinitely unless it can be expunged, making it difficult for the convicted to obtain a loan, rent an apartment or secure a job.

California’s Three Strikes Law

The “Three Strikes and You’re Out” law, enacted by California voters in 1994 imposes a life sentence for almost any felony crime, no matter how minor, if the offender has had two previous felony convictions. While the intent of the law was to keep the worst of the worst criminals behind bars “where they belong,” many individuals are now serving life sentences because of a very minor offense. Don’t let this happen to you. Recruit a skilled felony crimes defense attorney to represent your case.
