7. Criminal acts are classified according to several standards. One is whether the crime is major or minor. A major offense, such as murder, would be labeled a felony, whereas a minor offense, such as reckless driving, would be considered a misdemeanor. Another standard of classification is the specific kind of crime committed. Examples are burglary and robbery, which are terms often used incorrectly by individuals who are not aware of the actual difference as defined by law. A person who breaks into a building to commit a theft or other major crime is guilty of burglary, while robbery is the felonious taking of an individual’s property from his person or in his immediate presence by the use of violence or threat. Other common criminal acts with distinct legal definitions are larceny and assault. The unlawful taking of another’s property without his consent and with the intent of depriving him belongs to the first classification, while a violent attack on someone or an unlawful threat or attempt to do physical harm belongs to the second category.
