noun
1. Law . a criminal offense defined as less serious than a felony.

The reason
being that it doesn't require a trial (by jury) to deport an alien,
only an
administrative action. The second offense, after deportation, can
result in a
prison sentence, so would naturally require a trial.

The second offense is a felony, both amazingly are ignored by our

to keep it real.


You can certainly make up definitions.

I cut and pasted them right out of dictionary.com. You are the one
having trouble with words and have produced nothing but hot air with no
substance. You have a problem with the dictionary not agreeing with
you, send them a letter, don't bother me.

Apparently, you can't quote the
statute that you claim makes illegal entry a misdemeanor or felony.

I'm too busy being amused by how goofy it is consider illegal entry not
illegal (a crime).
