Different Types of Criminal Charges
There are several different criminal charges you can face in Middlesex County. Knowing the differences between them is important, as these distinctions will influence your case. Generally, criminal charges are divided into two main categories: felonies and misdemeanors.
Misdemeanors are less serious charges. They typically result in a maximum of one year in jail. Felonies are more serious charges, and they usually result in a minimum of one year in jail. Major felonies could result in lifelong imprisonment.
Felonies break down further into different “degrees” based on their severity. For example, a first-degree felony is more serious than a third-degree felony. Misdemeanors can be upgraded to felonies, too, if the victim belongs to a certain class, such as an elderly individual or a public servant.
Middlesex County uses special terms for these crimes. It refers to misdemeanors as “disorderly person offenses” and felonies as “indictable offenses.”
Some of the most common criminal charges in New Jersey include:
- DUIs
- Sex crimes
- Drug crimes
- Traffic violations
- White-collar crimes
What Are the Penalties for a Criminal Conviction?
The penalties that you face for a conviction depend on the specifics of the charges against you. In general, a criminal conviction can have severe, long-lasting consequences, even for minor offenses.
Some of the most common penalties for a criminal conviction include:
- Fines
- Probation
- Restitution
- Jail or prison time
In addition to these penalties, a conviction can leave you with a criminal record. Such a record can make it difficult to find a job, secure housing, or obtain a loan. No matter what, you should seek a defense when facing criminal charges. Doing so can help preserve your freedom and give you a brighter future.
Possible Defenses Against Criminal Allegations
If you have been charged with a crime, there is a lot at stake. Even a minor criminal conviction can dramatically change your life. For this reason, you must do everything you can to build a strong defense.
Fortunately, you don’t have to face this challenge alone. With the help of an experienced criminal defense attorney, you can fight the charges against you. Our team can help you determine your best defense strategy, and we will work tirelessly to secure positive results in your case.
