What Does Being Convicted of a Crime Mean?
When an individual is charged with a crime, their guilt or innocence will be decided in a court of law. If they are found guilty, the next stage is to be convicted of the crime. In this article, we will explain what it means to be convicted of a crime and what consequences typically follow.
What Is Conviction?
Conviction means a finding of guilt or legal responsibility for the crime, which can come through plea bargaining or after a jury trial. During the legal process, evidence and legal arguments are presented, and the court considers all information. If the judge or jury determines that the person did commit the crime, then that person is found guilty. Subsequently, a mandatory penalty or sentencing is decided, which might involve criminal penalties, community service, fines, rehabilitation programs, or imprisonment.
Kinds of Conviction:
There are various types of convictions that an individual might experience, including:
- Felony conviction: serious crimes like murder, aggravated assault, theft, robbery, and others carry mandatory sentences to the criminal code. Examples: homicide (manslaughter), criminal impersonation, perjury;
- Misdemeanor conviction: non-capital offenses with possible incarceration: simple assault, minor criminal offenses, e.g. traffic infractions; property damage; domestic disturbances without injuries; harassment (other than physical), intimidation/threats
- Infraction conviction: for example, in summary actions: disorderly conduct
What Does It Mean to Be Convicted:
1. Judgment of Guilt (Verdict or Jury Guilt)
- Convictions come through findings from Courts/juries and court documents issued with finalization for evidence.
