A friend was convicted of a felony in a NC court. Would we have to approach the Governor or the President to get his sentence commuted?

Is a felony different than a federal conviction? I'm confused

(maybe that's what they want lol)

a federal conviction is violation of a federal crime, someone that's handled in federal court and not state court...and then onto federal punishment

felony is most serious types of charges, meaning not a misdemeanor, and state handles them. also time of 1 or more yr punishable prison time from my understanding... there are some different classes of felonies....

so yes a felony is differnt then a federal conviction...

hope this helps a lil bit?

I'm not sure bout the other question your asking...i'm sure someone wuld kno who you try to contacted bout that.
