A felony is crime considered serious, generally punishable in the United States by one year or more in prison or by death. Murder, for instance, would be a felony.
Note, however, that many new crimes are also felonies. For example, in some cases draining water from your property without a government permit or removing asbestos from your home without government authorization may be a felony.
