Los Angeles Felony Warrant Lawyers

Felony is a severe crime for which the punishment is imprisonment for more than a year or the accused can be punished with death, although the laws vary from country to country. A felony is considered to be a serious crime in the US and other common law countries.

The term invented from English where felonies were serious crimes that involved taking away (confiscation) a convicted person’s goods and lands; other crimes were termed as misdemeanors. Most of the common law countries have now excluded the felony distinction and replaced it with other distinctions.

There is a difference between felony and misdemeanor. Crimes involving less gravity are named as misdemeanors.

The distinction between felonies and misdemeanors is important. Felonies involve more atrocious crimes such as murder, rape, and theft and it has a more serious bad effect than misdemeanors.

For example, all felonies cases were originally punishable by death. And the law makes sure that the felon’s property is forfeited (to the Crown).

On the other hand, a misdemeanor was not punishable by death and hardly involved any forfeiture. An accused person of felony was not entitled to bail but an accused committed for trial for a misdemeanor usually was.

In the United States, felony/misdemeanor distinction is still applied widely, the Federal government characterizes a felony as a crime punishable by imprisonment in excess of one year or the death penalty. And if punishable by one year or less than one year, it is classified under a misdemeanor.

People don’t know that there are different categories of warrants that are issued by the court. Out of which one is a felony warrant.

Basically, if this type of warrant has been issued, the person named in the warrant could be arrested for felony charges.

Felony /bench/misdemeanor are types of arrest warrants that are used by the law generally. It is important to keep in mind that having arrest warrants is a serious matter and that one should not try even ignoring it.
