Question
can i hunt still with a ungraded felony after probation ends i been tryin to get answer on this for 4 months and to find out what a ungraded felony is aand means for the rest of my life

Answer
Noah,

Thanks for asking. I found this for you:

Some state legislators, when making a law neglect to place a specific level or grade associated with the offense such as 1st, 2nd, or 3rd degree felony. The same applies to misdemeanors.

The offense is still considered a felony or misdemeanor, but it just has no level of the offense attached.

One can assume that if convicted of an "ungraded" felony, the law states they will still be punished by a minimum of one year and a day in jail.
