It's considered a misdemanor and can punishable by a fine and/or jail time. But that depends if you have prior record and the laws that exist in your city or town.

As with any other crime -- the definition varies by the state and country.
Generally, it's a misdemeanor in most jurisdictions.
But check your local listings.
