If you have been accused of violating federal laws outlined in the U.S. criminal code, charges could be filed against you in federal court. These charges are typically more serious than state charges — charges that involve violations of the California Penal Code. You could also have charges filed against you in federal court if the crime you are accused of committing involved federal government property. Penalties for federal charges almost always include large fines and significant prison sentences. To make matters worse, depending on the nature of your case, you may be charged with not only state violations, but also federal violations.
