A felony assault charge in New York carries serious consequences. Felony assault charges can result in a prison sentence, and there are fewer opportunities for those convicted of felony assault to seek early release from prison. Violent felony offenders who are released on parole often face much stricter supervision and harsher penalties for parole violation.
