Common questions about Criminal Defense in Arizona
Answered by Arizona Attorney Search Network
What is the difference between a misdemeanor and a felony in Arizona?
Arizona criminal offenses are classified by severity under Title 13 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. Misdemeanors fall into Classes 1-3 (maximum 6 months in jail and $2,500 fine for a Class 1 misdemeanor under ARS § 13-707). Felonies fall into Classes 1-6, with Class 1 (homicide) the most serious and Class 6 the least; felony convictions carry prison exposure and the potential loss of civil rights including firearms ownership.
What is an arraignment in Arizona criminal court?
An arraignment is the first formal court appearance after charges are filed - typically within 24-48 hours of arrest. The defendant hears the charges, enters a plea (almost always 'not guilty' at this stage), and the court addresses bail or release conditions. For felonies, the equivalent first appearance is the Initial Appearance, with arraignment in Superior Court occurring after preliminary hearing or grand jury indictment.
What rights do I lose with a felony conviction in Arizona?
A felony conviction results in loss of voting rights (until completion of the sentence; restored automatically for first-time felons under ARS § 13-907), the right to possess firearms (ARS § 13-3101), the right to serve on a jury, and certain professional licenses. Some rights are restored automatically; others require a petition to the court under ARS § 13-908.
