Felony Offenses
A felony offense is a crime punishable by one year or more in the state prison. All felonies begin in the Municipal Court with a Preliminary Hearing to determine whether there is sufficient evidence, or probable cause to support the charges. Once the Municipal Court Judge determines probable cause, a felony then proceeds to the Superior Court for trial.
