My question involves criminal law for the state of: US LAW
Is getting charged with a federal felony generally considered a much more grave and worse situation than getting charged with a state felony? And is it true that you can be convicted for the same charge in both jurisdictions? If that's true, why doesn't double jeopardy apply and how are the sentences usually served, concurrently or consecutively, i.e. first in a state facility then in a federal facility?
