FAQ
Some Class C or 3 felonies might carry maximum prison sentences of only 1 to 5 years, whereas other states could have maximum penalties of 10 or 15 years. Most felony statutes indicate a maximum sentence but not necessarily a minimum sentence.
If someone gets the mandatory minimum, they must serve all 10 years of that sentence in prison and without the possibility of parole. The only way to get around the mandatory minimum for a serious violent felony is if the State agrees to go below the mandatory minimum.
Federal inmates serve an average of 85% of their sentence, which means that they are required to serve a minimum of 85% of their sentence before becoming eligible for release.
Most parole-eligible inmates are statutorily eligible for parole after serving one-third of their prison sentence.
Georgia Sentencing: In Georgia, misdemeanors are sentenced right after conviction, but felonies involve a post-trial sentencing date, considering pre-sentencing investigations, victim impact statements, and Georgia's unique sentencing guidelines.
Offender must serve 100% of the maximum possible sentence for that crime, without possibility of parole. Sentencing guidelines Rules intended to ensure uniformity of sentencing. Sentences are prescribed for each crime – longer with aggravating circumstances, and shorter with mitigating circumstances.
Third-degree felony charges in Georgia are the least serious, but they are still serious, nonetheless. Common examples include both arson and forgery. Some third-degree felony charges carry mandatory minimum sentences, which means that the judge has no discretion when it comes to handing down prison time.
The least serious misdemeanors are classified as Class C or Level Three. These crimes can result in fines and jail time of up to a year, and may also offer the chance of probation.
Level 3 felonies are punishable by 3 to 16 years in prison. Aggravated battery and arson involving bodily injuries are both Level 3 felonies.
Most companies will be ok with felony class 5 or 6, 4 is iffy, and 1-3 would be a disqualification. Companies have different policies when it comes to felonies... It really depends of what type of business they're in and what type of work you do, in addition to your felony class and how long ago the conviction was.
