What Are Felonies in Georgia?

In Georgia, felonies are not divided into classes, as in Class A felonies or Class 1 felonies. Instead, each felony offense is merely labeled a felony and the penalties it carries are determined by the nature of the offense, the harm it involved to people or property, and other relevant and particular circumstances. Each felony case is prosecuted on a case-by-case basis.

Examples of Georgia felonies include:

• Murder
• Kidnapping
• Rape
• Armed robbery
• Burglary
• Arson

Murder is punishable by life in prison or the death penalty. Other felonies, such as rape or kidnapping carry prison sentences of 10 to 25 years. Along with prison sentences, you may be facing hefty fines as well.
