Fines and penalties for a felony conviction may include:

• 3rd degree felony: punishable by up to a $5,000 fine, five (5) years prison and/or probation.

• 2nd degree felony: punishable by up to a $10,000 fine, fifteen (15) years prison and/or probation.

• 1st degree felony: punishable by up to $15,000 fine, thirty (30) years prison and/or probation.

Convicted felons are often prohibited from employment in occupations involving the handling of money or valuables.  A  felony conviction can also be a significant stumbling block if you later decide to pursue a professional discipline field of employment, such as medicine, nursing, teaching, real estate, financial services, or practicing law.  If you are already licensed in a particular discipline profession, a felony conviction could result in a review of your "character and fitness", jeopardizing your ability to continue to work in that field.
