Which term is associated with a punishment of 6 months to 1 year?

• A. Capital Felony
• B. True Bill
• C. Sealed Indictment
• D. Class A Misdemeanor

Answer: (D)

Understanding how offenses are categorized helps map penalties to time in jail. A capital felony carries the most severe consequences, typically life imprisonment or the death penalty, so it’s far from a six-month to one-year window. A True Bill reflects the grand jury’s decision to indict and advance charges, not a specific punishment. A Sealed Indictment is simply an indictment kept confidential, again not tied to a particular sentence. The six-month-to-one-year range aligns with the most serious misdemeanor category, which is up to about a year in jail. So the term that fits that punishment window is Class A Misdemeanor.
