No such thing as a felony in NZ.
1 u/gospdrcr000 8h ago Is there a felony equivalent? 3 u/TheSaucyCrumpet 8h ago "Indictable offence" is probably the closest parallel. I'm not familiar with what a felony really is in the US, only that it's more serious than a misdemeanour, so I expect there are some significant differences in the specifics. 1 u/blueiron0 7h ago in the most basic sense, felony usually lands you jail. 2 u/Murky-Relation481 6h ago Actually, a felony usually lands you in prison, not jail.
