What class of felony is associated with second degree forgery?

Class A felony
Class B felony
Class C felony
Class A misdemeanor

The correct answer is: Class C felony

Second degree forgery typically falls under a classification that can vary by jurisdiction, but it is often regarded as a Class C felony. This designation generally indicates that while the crime is serious and carries significant penalties, it is not as severe as a Class A or B felony. In many jurisdictions, the classification reflects the nature of the offense, suggesting that it involves fraudulent intent but may not involve the more severe consequences associated with first degree forgery, which is usually classified at a higher level. This categorization is important as it influences sentencing guidelines, the possibility of parole, and the impact on a criminal record. Understanding these classifications helps in grasping the legal consequences surrounding forgery and the judicial assessments of various forms of the crime.
