Felonies are typically Federal Crimes, aren't they ?  Breaking into a person's home is one thing, breaking into a Post Office is another.

In most states, it would be sufficient to try and open a door or window, but fail (i.e. jiggle a locked door handle), with the intent to commit a felony (theft, etc.) inside.\n\nJust walking in (without felonious intent) is trespass.

Assuming you've authorized the service, then yes, you are committing a crime by removing the car from the repair facility.  It's called "Obtaining goods or services by false pretenses".

It depends how much you steal.  In some jurisdictions, theft of as little as $100.00 is a felony.  In some, theft of anything can be a felony if you have prior convictions.  In others, you need to steal $1000.00 or more.

ENtering a dwelling without permission, at night (some jurisdictions at day) with the intention to commit a felony

It would appear that it is legal in Washington, as long as you don't "evince intent" to use them or allow them to be used in a burglary. Similarly in Oregon, one can be convicted of posession of burglary tools if he has a "burglary tool or theft device" and intends to use it "to commit or facilitate a forcible entry into premises or a theft by a physical taking" or allow another person to do the same (ORS 164.235).

They would lose, since California Civil Code 847 states that a property owner "shall not be liable to any person for any injury or death that occurs upon that property during the course of or after the commission of any of the felonies set forth in subdivision (b) by the injured or deceased person." Those felonies includes burglary and robbery.

The penal code establishes the punishment for burglary, and generally includes a low term, mid-term or high term.  The judge picks which sentence to impose at sentencing based on the presence/absence of mitigating and aggravating factors.  This applies to any adult convicted of burglary. So a person does not get a longer sentence just because he/she is younger. However, age of the person can be a mitigating factor that could result in getting the lower term.  The only time where you would really see a longer sentence due to age is when a young person is given a life term.  Burglary, generally speaking, is not a life in prison case.  Beware of 3 strikes laws though.

It is certainly legal.  This does not depend on the good nature or honesty of the person, namely being upfront about it.  If policy states that no one with a felony may be employed, then when the felony happens, at that moment the person may no longer be employed, period.

Yes they can it is called criminal damage to property, and it depend what the total cost of the damage is to make it a misdemeanor or a felony. I think more than $300.00 or $500.00 constitutes a felony depending on where you live!!!!

Yes, they can take your car, your house, and any thing else associated with the crime. It is part of RICO Anti-racketeering law.\n\nOh, and you still have financial responsibily for the confiscated items.

In most states you have to be convicted of the underlying crime to be convicted of felony murder.\n\nIt sounds to me like you got charged with conspiracy which is a whole different ballgame.  If you are involved in a conspiracy to commit burglary, and someone dies in the process, you can be held liable for that death, even if you didn't end up having anything to do with the burglary itself unless you clearly renounce your involvement in the conspiracy prior to the death.  Sitting at home watching tv isn't an excuse if you were part of the conspiracy before.\n\nGood luck!

A felony, in many common law legal systems, is the term for a "very serious" crime, whereas misdemeanors are considered to be less serious offenses.\n\nCrimes which are commonly considered to be felonies include, but are not limited to: aggravated assault, arson, burglary, murder, and rape. Those who are convicted of a felony are known as felons. Originally, felonies were crimes for which the punishment was either death or forfeiture of property. Nowadays, felons can receive punishments which range in severity; from probation, to imprisonment, to execution. In the United States felons often receive additional punishments such as the loss of voting rights, exclusion from certain lines of work, prohibition from obtaining certain licenses, exclusion from purchase/possession of firearms or ammunition, and ineligibility to run for or be elected to public office. In addition, some states consider a felony conviction to be grounds for an uncontested divorce.

A felony is usually a crime that is punishable by a jail term and/or a fine.\nA misdemeanor is a crime that is punishable by a fine and in some cases a short jail sentence may be applied.\nIn my opinion your accrued felony may have been a felony offense at the time of occurence; however, the offense level may have been modified due to a change in status of an offense.\nIn other words the crime that you were accused of at the time was considered a felony but it is no longer classified as a felony but as a misdemeanor.\nThis is only my personal opinion and I would appreciate it very much if when you find the true fact that you would find a way of posting it for us.
