What is a Felony?
Felony is a term used to identify the most serious types of crimes with which a person can be charged. Felony offenses include many violent crimes, such as rape, murder and robbery, but also include many non-violent white collar crimes, such as embezzlement and financial fraud.
Felony charges are classified by degree in New Mexico, with first degree being the highest level and fourth degree being the lowest level of felony charges you may face.
The punishment for a felony conviction is significantly more severe than that of a misdemeanor. If you are convicted of a felony you face a prison sentence of at least one year, fines assessed in the thousands of dollars, probation, and a permanent criminal record.
