Meaning and definition for "misdemeanor" word

[noun] a crime less serious than a felony

-------------

\Mis`de*mean"or\, n. 1. Ill behavior; evil conduct; fault. --Shak. 2. (Law) A crime less than a felony. --Wharton. Note: As a rule, in the old English law, offenses capitally punishable were felonies; all other indictable offenses were misdemeanors. In common usage, the word crime is employed to denote the offenses of a deeper and more atrocious dye, while small faults and omissions of less consequence are comprised under the gentler name of misdemeanors. --Blackstone. The distinction, however, between felonies and misdemeanors is purely arbitrary, and is in most jurisdictions either abrogated or so far reduced as to be without practical value. Cf. {Felony}. --Wharton. Syn: Misdeed; misconduct; misbehavior; fault; trespass; transgression.
