If you are arrested on a felony charge but the person who made the report is NOT pressing charges?

Question

The state itself is pressing charges, what happens?

If you dont have money for bail, do you just stay in jail until your court date? And is there always bail involved?

Answer 1

A felony is considered as a serious crime in most parts of the world. The term Felony comes into existence from English common law. A person who convicts a crime in a court of law of a felony crime is known as a felon.

Confiscation of land and goods are common punishments of a convicted person in different states of United States

Charges of felony can be filled by police or other officials of any states in United States. State can charge someone if he is found guilty. Felons, who have not been proved convicted, can be freed after presenting before the judge by concerning officials.

However, if someone convicts felony, he can go through long-term legal consequences continuing after the end of their imprisonment. These could be:

• Disenfranchisement (which the Supreme Court interpreted to be permitted by the Fourteenth Amendment)

• Exclusion from obtaining certain licenses, such as a visa, or professional licenses required in order to legally operate (making many vocations off-limits to felons)

• Exclusion from purchase and possession of firearms, ammunition and body armor

• Ineligibility for serving on a jury

• Ineligibility for government assistance or welfare, including being barred from federally funded housing
