In addition to imprisonment and fines, felonies carry collateral consequences:

• You will be required to disclose a felony conviction on a job application, if asked.
• You will be prohibited from owning a gun in California for 10 years or for life.
• If your felony conviction qualifies as “violent” or “serious,” you will face enhanced penalties for any future felony convictions under California’s Three Strikes Law. A third felony conviction could result in life in prison without parole.

What Are the Penalties for California Felony Convictions?

Penalties and prison sentences for felonies are determined by court discretion, which is highly complicated. Crime statutes define three types of fixed sentences for most California felony offenses. There are three choices if there are no sentences defined (18(a) pc): 16 months, 2 years, or 3 years.

If convicted by plea or trial, the court holds a sentencing hearing at which the judge must choose a sentence of one of three lengths of incarceration as the base term sentence, unless a statute provides an alternative sentence, such as probation, fines, or mandatory supervision.

An aggravating circumstance, a mitigating factor, and witness statement are typically considered by the judge (1170 pc) when choosing the base term sentence. Based on the defendant's criminal record and other factors involved in the case, judges can increase the defendant's base term sentence. Except for indeterminate sentences, most felony sentences are fixed terms.
