Some states classify felonies into different categories (Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D, etc.) according to the seriousness of the crime. It varies state to state. See Criminal Codes by state.
Felony Crime Punishment
A felony usually carries a minimum of one or more years in prison and can be death in the most serious felony crimes, such as murder, treason and espionage. Felony punishments also include probation some times, depending on the seriousness of the felony crime.
Additional punishments are often part of the punishment and include the loss of certain rights, to include voting and carrying a gun. If a felony criminal is not a U.S. citizen they can be deported.
